Not sure where I left off but 2 weekends ago I got to actually spend the entire weekend working on the platform. I started off the day by dropping a couple of trees that needed to go and leveled the ground where an old tree had fallen over. I rented a two person auger and we got the 28 6X6 posts (8' cut in half) in the ground in one day with two people. With a 10" auger and 2' deep it only took one 80lb bag of Quickcrete per hole. I had a small screw up and chalk it up to rookie mistake. At some points I measured on center and other points at the perimeter so my beams didn't line up perfect on the posts but nothing a few 3/8"X4" lag bolts couldn't help me correct in the strength department. The following day we got all of the beams in with about 10 of the joists. Here are a few pictures.
