This is one of several hydrolic jacks that were used to level the house. Once the house is leveled they insert the cylinders in place of the jacks. Let me tell you, it was a strange feeling to be in the house when the actual leveling takes place--all the popping and creaking. It was a little unsettling.
Now the holes have been filled and under the circumstances the it looks pretty good. Now all the tile comes up and the wood floors go down. This will be a lot more satisfying.
I sleep better now, knowing the house is level ;)
