Deck Boards Done

Well, all the deck boards are down, but it is missing a lot of screws, so that will take some time. I ended up 1" short on the deck boards. I'm going to see how it looks with the railing on, if it looks bad, I am going to find a trim piece to fit in there. Rains are coming in this weekend so probably not much happening this weekend.

Break in the Weather

Well, got outside last night and was able to use a new tool, the almighty BOWRENCH. It made life a little easier to snug up the boards by myself so I made some good progress, deck boards are all but done.

Here comes the rain...

It is spring and the rains have settled in, a good chance of rain just about everyday so it might take a while to finish up the deck.

But here are two videos of Jack flying his kite and bowling..... And a picture of the boys in a police cruiser!!!

Progress:

Picture 1 is what I had done before the weekend and Picture 2 is what Dave and I accomplished this weekend

THANKS DAVE!!!!

Well, my big brother came down this weekend and we knocked out a good portion of the deck, unfortunately the camera is at the house and I can't upload any pictures, but you will have to imagine how awesome it looks!

We got all of the joists installed and have 1/2 of the decking installed.

Keep on Moving

Got a lot of show-wood up, I'm letting that angle on the deck get the best of me. I need to set up some string lines and get my corner set and just move on. Very hard to do this layout by myself.

Some more Progress

I'm ready to set all of the support beams, all of the posts are set and anchored!
