Fort Knocks: first nails and screws

Today we started in on lag screws for the ledger board, the part that attaches to the tree. And I lacked a deep enough bit to bore a hole to accommodate my lag screws... So short pause to visit hardware store again and return tomorrow to drill again!



I used some scrap wood to help align the ledger horizontally. The angle of the trunk behind it is so steep, I'll need to tuck in a big shim.
