Gazebo - PREM - 29-05-2017

My own project, i picked a very wet few months at the end of 2015, not ideal weather. This is my next apprentice, Mason.

Looked a nice day in November. The 8x8 green oak posts were the heaviest things i have ever lifted, 4x3 wall plate.

The roof was the easy bit, keeping the wall plate low as not to go to high overall, gave me another workaround, the 4m spans were bowing under the weight. I had to wrap the wall plates in steel, might see on another pic.

Just make out the box steel primed. I have sanded the pillars, which too me two days to do. Worth it they came up nice in the end.

The tiles were a pain to do, my two B-inlaws did most of it. Composite tiles with plastic ridges, copper nail's and pins.

Very nearly finished, in all it took me 6 months of week ends and dodging the weather. Had some good parties already.
I did a kitchen in summer 15 and they had a small 3x3 which they were always under, which gave me the idea. Just a little bigger.

looks fantastic! Great use of outdoor space

Very nice Ray..!
BUT,.....what's the panel on the ceiling? It looks like a sheet of Perspex or Glass.....and it appears to be pissed, but that may be an optical illusion.

That looks really nice Ray.
Does that mean we've got our next venue set for our next social ??

Looks brilliant Ray

Just what I was thinking as well.....perfect venue for the KFF 10th Anniversary Bash!
RE: Gazebo - PJK - 29-05-2017
Looks great ray. Love it. It's got that holiday vibe I'm so desperate for at the moment.
RE: Gazebo - PREM - 30-05-2017
No its not pissed but it does look it in the pic. It is just bathroom pvc ceiling panels, my original idea was black ceiling with hundreds of fibre optic lights drilled through, but the work involved was to much for the time left to a party so i put that up.
Premier inn rates will apply, oh look the rates have gone up over the week end. That always happens

Looks spot on Ray, just missing a bar
