Thought you'd have worked it out Re: Bicko’s Rothwell - all unpacked. The work starts - Decki 377Dec 25, 2010 6:31 am bicko123 Very busy two days. Now that I’m off work, I have to rip into getting a few things done around the house. First stop is the front decking that will run from the front door towards the road. Yesterday was basically spent at bunnings getting all of the materials, setting out the deck and drilling a few stump holes. Today i had a few more holes to drill. on of the holes was smack bang right on the centre of the recycled water main. it was a pain in the ar$e, but got it sorted and out of the way. set all the stumps, put up the bearers and got most of the joists up. The section under the porch is really fiddly. It even more fiddly as I’m putting a 140mm wide boarder around the entire deck. it should look pretty sweet once finished. I was hoping to have it all finished by tonight. Took a bit longer than expected. I usually have my old man helping with these type of things, but he's an hour away now... One of the reasons why i went so far forward was to cover the stupid water meters Not too sure what the deck will be used for yet. I’m maybe a bit of late night dancing The hardest of the work is done now. it will all be finished on boxing day Pics http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/xx353/bicko123/House/DSC00308s.jpg http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/xx353/bicko123/House/DSC00316s.jpg http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/xx353/bicko123/House/DSC00319.jpg Merry Christmas everyone Hey Bicko, so impressed.

The work starts - Decking 379Jan 01, 2011 9:34 pm The deck is finally finished. Well the front deck!!! I did the final touches yesterday in the bloody heat and wind. Lost 2.5kg yesterday alone... It took way longer than expected. Working by yourself definitely makes a job like this take longer, but anyway it’s done. The little hatch over the water meters came up a treat. Maybe a little too good? You can't tell that there is an opening... i think i'll have to put a sign of some sort for the meter readers. Don’t want them to estimate our usage... So now i have to do some sort of garden around all sides of the deck. spread some topsoil and plant the covenant tree LOL Next project is the alfresco deck which is bigger but more straight forward. The area under the porch was very fiddly, especially with the border... it would also help if the house was built square...
