I was just showing a family friend these pics. They're really good. I didn't realize how good this project turned out until just a few minutes ago. Maybe I was too tired previously.

At any rate, I'm moving this to the main forum for a while - just in case somebody wants a kickass project done on their house. Heh.

How did you learn to do that stuff? That is artistic chit. Does your dad do that kind of thing? Any good stories on him?

Looks great Phil and Delt, good work. Makes me want to kick back myself and grill. You've motivated me now to go out by the pool rather than mow the lawn like I was going to. I thank you.

The deck looks outstanding fellas.

or maybe you were just trying to get the hell out of ENDelts house as fast as you could

I don't know; that may qualify as "spamming" right?

Ah, crap....never mind; you own half the place now; carry on.... :-)

ENdelt told me he was going to pull a JOhn on Phobia.

No, no...but he was robbed and "assaulted" in the back of his new pickup, at a reststop en route home....

My dad fixes toilets and replaces light fixtures for a living. He's what you might call a "handyman".

I'm unsure how I "learned" how to do this stuff. I spend copious amounts of time researching projects like this one. I subscribe to periodicals, I watch building related shows, and I buy picture books. The rest of it just comes naturally because I'm a very particular, high maintenance person. That doesn't translate well to my checkbook, but it helps me design and build pretty things.

yeah, but the cat in the hat doesn't count, dude.
[Reply]

um

That's the greatest book ever.
[Reply]

So do I, but it's only because they haven't created a "facility" that can surpass my quality control testing.

The picture on 238 is fantastic.

Bob Dole is too lazy to read through all this shit.

What's the link to ENDelt's Deckcam?
[Reply]

That can't be your foot. It doesn't have a ghey shoe attached.
