Project 3

One of the larger projects for this season is the removal of another set of degrading boardwalks.  They are quite old and have become structurally unsafe.  Bob(another resident volunteer) and I start efforts and made good progress the 1st week using a different approach. We are disassembling in place rather than moving sections to the dumpster for disassembly.  Bob came up with a design for a board removal prybar that both expedited the process and saved our backs. The length of the boardwalks is about the same as our earlier project which consumed 27 man-days.  We should be done is about ½ that time using the new approach, even with an additional 1/3 of a mile from the boardwalk to the dumpster for disposal.
