Currently building a stone retaining wall at my /out/house
Looks like shit compared to the ones built in the 1800s by people who actually kne wtf they were doing but it's a lot more solid than it looks in the pic.
Some of those rocks are so heavy that I can't even lift them, I had to roll them down the cliff (I'm getting them about 100m uphill from another partially collapsed wall)
Once I'm done with this one there's at least another 3 more to build and then I need to reinforce the upper wall because if it collapses completely it'll release a dirt cliff that's at aleast 7m high.
I don't have the skills to fix the original rock wall face so I'm thinking of casting some reinforced concrete beams in an XXX pattern in front of it. The collapsing section is only about 5m wide so it shouldn't be too much work, even if I have to bring the concrete up by hand because there's no road.
>also sorry for the post apocalyptic lighting, I accidentally put the phone in fluorescent mode
