That`s probably the main difference beteween `then` and `now`. They didn`t have H&S regulations to take into consideration.
I was just trying to get some idea of the bare minimum amount of good quality logs, of equal straight length and diameter, which would be required to get the job done. I assumed that for every fulcrum point (on one side of the stone) we`d need a log going under the width of the stone (to its equivalent fulcrum point on the other side), for support.
If two towers are used, it`ll be difficult to get them in full alignment without some prior preparation of the ground.
Whatever method is used, I wanted to point out that a very large amount of sorted timber is going to be required.
Gordon still seems to think that it can all be done in a day. No chance!
