Amateur's deck ( picture's )

[digg]

Hi this is my very first post. Although I have spend at least a hundred hours reading expert advice on decking/woodworking,I feel like a regular already.

Great advice like reeds up/down (down) nail/screw ( titadeck screw in anywise and hammer elbows recovers ) marked out every hole ( 3,000 + ) pre-drilled .

Made two decks deck1 4.2m x 2.2m outboard steps and pergola for hanging plants/vine growth.

Deck two 6mx6m with inboard steps and balustrade ( ideas outta Allan Staines manual )

Oiled near on 600m L Kapur hardwood with Cabot's Decking Stain Jarrah twice before laying . Solarguard water based paint all F17 seasoned Ash Bearers and joists thrice.

The idea of weaved planks on deck two was to add privacy from overlooking neighbours fence.

All posts and balustrade timber is ccc pine with Cabot's Decking Oil jarrah.

Finished deck with Cabot's Decking Oil Natural.

What do you people reckon?

Fantastic.

Give your day job the a??e and make a quid out of building decks and the like.
There's a pretty big call for good work.

Once again, top effort.
