Might as well get this one out of the way...

Those stairs look like they've seen some heavy duty service, you know, like from fat chicks. 'Cause ENDelt likes his girls heavy.

Saulbadguy 04-19-2005 07:58 PM

You are going to rip it out? Is your HOA not responsible for that?

I see the Arizona sun has done a number on it. Are you planning to replace it with more wood or a composite material?

That is a good point, though they are more durable, their closed pore systems would not release the heat like wood.

Heh - not gonna happen. I've erected a shade over the entire deck and yesterday installed misters. Those misters make a lot of difference.

I usually don't mix as many in a night as I have been, though. I'm more of a drink one beer all night kind of guy. But, on Monday, IIRC, I started w/ Sam Adams Summer Ale, then had Sam Adams Double Bock, then Nimbus Old Monkeyshine, and finally Alaskan Amber. Last night I started w/ the Summer Ale again.. at some point had an Alaskan, then went back to Summer Ale. Some Maudite and Hidden River Black & Tan got tossed in there. Then more Summer Ale & Alaskan. I must've finished off the Summer Ale and Alaskan, because I ended the night with Bass.

I don't even know what all is still in the fridge. I know there's a twelver of Bass and a twelver of Sam Adams. There's still some Hidden River Black & Tan. There's a bottle of something I don't remember the name of that Phil picked up at the liquor store on Monday. There may still be some other stuff.

My fridge is a happy place.

Damn,I caught a buzz just reading that.

Saulbadguy 05-18-2005 01:09 PM

Whenever I mix and match beers, I get the farts.

And how did I know this discussion would spiral into beer consumption and the neighbor girl? Saul telling us he farts when he has a variety of beers was a curveball, though.

There's not really a lot of good spots out there. That table's usually filthy. The walls aren't smooth, I'd imagine they'd be quite uncomfortable to lean against. Even if the boards were new and perfect, they'd still be hard and uncomfortable. As it is, they're in quite the state of disrepair. No one would consider laying down on them.

Now, the hot tub on the other hand...

Sounds like my poem was correct, and you'd better double up those Joists.

The water splashes out the Top
this nights girl, did belly flop.
The Hot tub, a great idear
4 person tub will fit her rear.

A lesson learned, Too much to expect
1 cannon ball, 1 water bed wrecked.
In cursing rage, she's someone's daughter
your condo filled....4" of water.

You fell a sleep and now its morning

Awkward chat as you get dressed
She'll back tonight,
she's got your address

jspchief 05-20-2005 02:51 PM

Hey Phil, what are you going to do for joists under the decking? I assume you're just going to do what they did before and lay down floating 2xs.

You might want to cut some extra strips from the 90# to use as pads under them, so they aren't sitting directly on the roofing material. That way any wear from friction should occur on the strips. If you have enough room, you might even buy a sheet of 1/2" fiber board an cut strips out of that.

I thought of that after I talked to you the other day. Hope I'm not too late with the suggestion.

Donger 05-20-2005 03:00 PM

Phobia, where are you going to buy wood? I'm contemplating a very simple 8x8 deck, and I've priced 2"x6"x8' pressure-treated pine at Home Depot at $6.69 each.

Is that expensive?

Nah. That's about right. Believe it or not, I get most of my lumber at Lowes and Home Depot. The local lumber yards and deck suppliers aren't any cheaper and there's a Lowes/Depot within a couple miles of all my jobs.

Excellent. Thank you. I'm tempted to buy the redwood but it's around $9.50 a board. The Douglas Fir is $4.50. Ever use Douglas Fir?

Phobia 05-20-2005 07:46 PM

Use douglas fir on a deck only if you intend to put about 3 coats of paint on each side.

Any consideration to laying your deck out in Trex or the like?
My buddy just got one of those multi-level decks that span the entire back of the house, and it was composed entirely of composite. Don't know if it was Trex or one of the competitors. Mix of sawdust and recycled plastics with UV protection. He chose the one he did because of it's sturdiness and because it was molded with redwood grain.
Very nice.
Not too much more expensive in the long haul, considering that it's maintenance free. Biggest drawback was it is murder on sawblades. Think MDF on crack.

I can see that as a concern, particularly as you are inevitably gonna run into recycled plastics.
Just kind of interested in how much work they've put into durability under extreme heat, because my buddy put a lot of research into what the specs were on durability under UV and durability under changing conditions [hot to cold].
And I must say, it's a sweet deck. Now to see how it looks 10-15 years from now.

Those steps haven't been painted yet. The kickboards were recycled from the previous stairs, but the decking on the stairs is an unpainted redwood. Despite the grain patterns in the wood playing tricks on your eyes, they're completely straight and level now. In some spots we had to make a 3" adjustment to the right side.

I wasn't as concerend about the temperature affecting durability as I was comfort. I've experienced a hybrid wood and trex deck in 90 degree heat. The trex was too hot to stand on and I had to jump over to the wood decking. I can't imagine how that would affect not only the comfort on his feet, but also the surrounding temperature if the plastic is holding that much heat. If he were allowed to cover the deck, that would be another story.

I notice you have a solid wall around your deck. Have Phobia leave a section a little shorter so you and your male guests can experience one of the finer pleasures in life: whizing off the deck. Not every one has enough length to flop it over or a small enough prostrate (Skip) to arch it over.

NewChief 05-27-2005 04:54 AM

That's looking pretty sweet. Very pretty wood that's beign used. I didn't realize you'd gottten so ambitious with it...bar, outdoor kitchen, daaamn.

Well, I will give you a call while I'm there. I will be staying closer to the airport this time at Legacy Golf Resort. Be there Monday night through Friday.
