ENDelt's deck thread

[ENDelt260]

One of my favorite things about my condo is my big deck. Unfortunately, my deck's kinda ****ed up. I knew it was ****ed up when I bought the joint, but I've never gotten around to doing anything about it. I'm finally taking care of that now. Over the next couple weeks I'm getting bids on getting work done on it. I figured I should put my digital camera to good use and document the transformation.

An added benefit of sharing the pics here is some of you fellers that like to build stuff and know all about that might pipe up from time to time and say, "Hey, you should do this." Or, "Holy smokes, you dipshit. I can't believe you did that."

I find the deck kinda hard to explain to folks who have never seen it. Hopefully these pics make it easier to understand what my situation is. If I can provide a better picture or description of something, let me know.

I think you accidently mispelled "queef"

Shit. I have to pull up some subfloor and do some joist repair. That's gonna set me back a day.

Build those steps with extra strenth
reinforce between great lengths.
The steps will creek and strain with tons of weight
As Delt opens up the trailer gate.
His date sees hot-ub but forced to stop
Must catch her breath to make the top.

He's known a fan of all things blubber
the Ladith man, no fear of flubber

Those 2x12's you'd better double
else this deck, end up in rubble.

Some new pics.

First up, my grill is bigger than yours!

Sorry for the shitty lighting. Here's the beginnings of a closet to replace the shitty cabinet pictured earlier in the thread.

The dirt removed from one of the planters.

[ENDelt260]

Just what I always wanted. My very own dumpster!

Phil makes the hole in the closet ceiling bigger. You can see a bit more of the damage above.

Nice grill! Too bad that the reflection from that chrome grill is going to burn down the condo in that desert sun!

[jspchief]

So what is the subfloor made of? I can't tell from the pics. How are you going to make it shed water?
