Here is my submission for adding one horizontal log to a berm/hugelkultur scaffolding - PEP BB roundwood.sand.scaffolding

To get certified for this BB, I am posting pics of:  

 - chunks of wood I started with
 - Action pic about half way through
 - Final product
 - Indication of the strength and stability of the scaffold log.

Here's my submission for this BB. I added a horizontal log to a hugelkultur scaffolding at Wheaton Labs during SKIP last summer.

The photos I have from this project show:

 - My chunks of wood that I started with
 - Process pic about half way through
 - Final product, including me standing on it to indicate its strength and stability
