The PVC-square that is laying on the ground in front of me is a construction that I made. With the use of steel threaded rods I divided the space in the square up in 25 different sections. With the PVC-square, comically called &#8216;The Dutch checkerboard&#8217; by me and some colleagues, I can lay out the white tiles in a square of 5 by 5 tiles, each about an inch apart.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_323\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_laying_tiles.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-323\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-323\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_laying_tiles.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_laying_tiles.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_laying_tiles-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-323\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Here I&#8217;m using the &#8216;dutch checkerboard&#8217; to lay out the tiles in a grid.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_325\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_tile-S3B-2_b.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-325\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-325\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_tile-S3B-2_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_tile-S3B-2_b.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.kaelin.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Evert_tile-S3B-2_b-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-325\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Laying out tiles, but this time from another perspective. Giving you a good view on how I use the square to place the tiles in the soil.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The plan is that I will be checking the grids that I have laid out. Checking them out every other week. Taking pictures, checking if there is soil built up on top of the tiles and if that&#8217;s the case, how much soil.. And I&#8217;ll bring some of the soil back with me to do some more research on the soil in the lab. Drying it, weighing it. Then after a couple of times of checking, I&#8217;ll have to write all my findings down into a report. Working out all the results of my project.<\/p>\n<p>So, that is, in a nutshell, a bit about the project that I&#8217;ll be working on a little more from now on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alright, let me tell you something about my project that I started last week.
