Deck Remodel – Thursday (day 8)

Posted by admin on September 24, 2010

Sorry if anyone had trouble getting to the site.  This evening I ended up moving it to a regular hosting site as the free one just wasn’t up a lot of the time and I got a little tired of dealing with it and not being able to publish a post until their server(?) was back up.

I did manage to get one more post in today.  The footing I poured yesterday had set up nicely.  I trimmed off the excess re-bar pin and moved another 6×6 into place, made sure all was level, drilled the holes for the carriage bolts, and got it snugged down.  I noted the wood really perspired a lot of moisture around the washers when I tightened the nuts…   that accounts for a majority of the weight.

This is the 3rd post put in now.
