Fitting 401s brick arch

Volunteers have had another late evening shift tonight to install 401s brick arch, here Michael is in the firebox setting up the formers supports

Cement mix ready to receive water, needles have been added for extra reinforcement

After the cement is mixed by hand it is bucketed into the firebox where Michael lays it out on top of the former

Smoothing it out

It will take about 5 or 6 days for the cement to cure...

...showing the smoothed out top, after the cement has cured its a matter of carefully removing the former, then its job done
