Finishing a Beautiful Deck 

It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book ru-vid.comUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.

Two guys, one deck. Beautiful job.

I get the same feeling of great satisfaction after I have finished mowing my lawn and weeded the garden. I sit back for a time and admire my handiwork. Bliss

That deck came out beautiful. Love the videos

Nice to see quality workmanship and people having pride in their work. This is how all tradesmen should be...Proud. Top top lads!

Rewatching old vids, this was a goodie

Excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail. The miters, scribing, and joinery are outstanding in all your videos. Wish we could find contractors with your skill and attention to detail here in the US. We're lucky if they even show up!

Keep up the great work Scott! Always a pleasure watching your videos. Cracking job on the deck! Watching from the UK

Beautiful job. Your attention to detail is amazing.

I didn't see haw you calculate the size of the deck to be exact number of boards and no ripping at the end frame.This for me is very important and ads to the perfect end result.For me this is one of the best deck's i ever seen and the exact number of boards without ripping the lest one is one of the things that i love seeing.So Great job you two.

It's great the way ye clean up after. Well done fine job.

Lovely work and attention to detail. Inspiring!

Hi Scott, awesome deck! I just had mine finished - just wondering if you can recommend any stains/oil to use for Vitex decking? Thanks :)

The feeling of accomplishment must be right up there for builders. Captured that well.

Mate that's a stunning piece of craftsmanship - you should be pretty pleased (and the customer moreso!) Only just found the channel and loving it. Cheers from the UK.

love the banter and the working atmosphere. good stuff

Fantastic job guys! I finished building a deck back in May and that is such an incredible feeling to just walk on the deck and admire the finished product. Great job guys

What an amazing result! I have been binge watching all your videos, you and Padeau make great things. With kind regards from The Netherlands

Looks awesome guys. Beautiful job!

Beautiful deck. Good job.

Great looking deck, Scott! Oh and hey, look who is here, my other favorite channel guy, Finish Carpentry TV dude. All we need now is the Essential Craftsman guy and we are set. Tons of knowledge here combined. Thank you guys!!!

Hi there! I wish I'd see more decks as nice as this. Regards, Etna.

I recently bought two of those air wedges, fierce handy for hanging fire doors on your own. Fire doors are a bastard!

Deck came out alright.. Thank you for sharing .. Is that Vitex a hard wood ? just that I have never heard of it before.. How much a lineal mitre is it ??

Stunning work on the deck!!!

The deck looks amazing.👍😎well done

Always spot on guys!!! Beautiful outdoor integration!

I build decks in South Africa and that last screw gives me a fuzzy feeling in my stomach 😂😂 the deck looks amazing man 👌👌

Beautiful work guys!

very well done - looks fantastic - do you ask the homeowner if it ok to film etc/set out ground rules and how many times have your youtube channel helped you get work or used it to show your level of work

Beautiful Scott! Thanks for the series!

Beautiful deck ... amazing job ... great videos = subscribed from Texas 🇺🇸

Beautiful work, boys. One question though, any particular reason you guys didn't wrap the seat posts?? I find it just brings the whole thing together when you do that ay. Chur. Love your work mate.

She's a beauty of a deck !

Beautiful, beautiful deck. Well done to you both.

You guys make it look easy, it is awesome.

Nice work, could you have wrapped the seat legs in decking boards?

You got yourself a fan a all the way from windy, sunny, rainy Melbourne shot brothers. Keep ther posts coming

Some quality work love it👌👌

How do you tie your pitching plate to the house with that weatherboard cladding? Is there a couple of posts underneath your first bearer so you don't need to install it onto the house but have it essentially floating/butt up against the house? I'm an apprentice over in South Australia, really appreciate your videos!

Another great vid, loving the channel! I wonder if you have ever watched any of the Larry Haun videos on framing a house! The guy and his brother have Unbelievable carpentry skills!

Came out beautiful dude! Really like the built-in benches👍

The deck looks good but I think if you wrapping the pile with some decking timber that will looks even better

Nice enjoyed watching all the way from from phoenix Arizona 🇺🇸.

love watching your videos mate! keep up the good work

Looks really nice. U should get the rp3301fc. I just got it a week ago. And man it kicks ass. Keep up the great work. Lates.

Cool deck, quality is no little thing but little things make quality

And the music is a remix of Stompin’ At The Savoy (again). Who is the band you keep using these tracks from Scott? It sounds great. It’s like De Phazz, one my favourites! Please tell me…

Beautiful workmanship

Job Done...! Goodness greatness...Do all houses in NZ have Helipad Decks...?! Great Job, great workmanship & great friendship...! Good customer report & support...! Good Video, Editing, Style of Music...and Tube Channel. One observation: Vertical Corner on Left bench is sharp... Why not round it, like the horizontal profiles. (Small piece of sandpaper on a block of wood... Who am I, to blow against the wind...) Greetings to you both from Denmark...Jakob.

Hey Scott! Deck looks great, I was just wondering because you wrapped the sides in decking if you'd have any moisture issues under the deck? Or does the plastic do the trick? From a carpentry apprentice in Australia

Nice deck. Thanks for the vids. Cheers, David.

Quick question scott, those posts that the corner seats are fixed on to : are they in the ground in concrete ?? Or are they bolted onto the deck framing?

This is amazing! Please come and build a deck for me in London 🙏🏽 What is it the width of the decking boards you've used? Thanks!

Great Job. Would you tell me: what did you charge for the deck? Thanks!

Very neat work guys, suggestion! Would you consider staining the seating posts a grey/ black colour, I think it would look really cool

stunning job lads

Daaaaamn... Now that is talent.

Looks really good Scott.

Hey Scott, got details for building the deck seats, they look primo and I want to build some on my deck, thanks in advance

Beautiful work my friend! Keep it up!

Loving the videos from Australia!

Great job, looks so nice. What kind of wood is that? I can't recognize it. BTW how much do you pay Jeremy Renner to work with you?

That is a beautiful stiff and properly screwed deck.

what kind of wood is this? It's gorgeous!!

Hi you did a beautiful job just ask for how much the total?

I really like your videos but I would love to see a how to on some of the detail work you do please

Do you learn walking handstands in the final year of your apprenticeship? I can't recall seeing that anywhere in 3604 though.

Hey, nice work on the deck. What was the wood you used? It looked great. I'm new to your channel, and I'm way up over and here.

Bravi tosi. Gran lavoro Ostia

Well done Scotty! Awesome deck😁. Quick question though. How do you guys keep your mitres nice and tight? Glue and screw it?

Love that Festool!, fellow user. Lol hahaha . It looks redeckulous guys 👍👍

Inspirational stuff guys. Thanks.

Beautiful work gents...

Great result on that, how long did it take overall to do?

that was a nice opening tune. deck is looking mint brother!

Great work👌🏻

Wow, why would you thumbs down that! Great work lads!

Sweet job on the deck!! what wood did you use here?

"This deck is screwed"

Nice work, guys.

How you manage to run your crew, get the jobs, back office and make good edited videos? (And looks like you're all having fun...)Wow! Thank you

Great job. I love it! Buen trabajo, me encanta!

that's skill boys,well done.

Great job lads👍🏻

Hey Scott, do you make your own wedges for board spacing?

Awesome deck!

Shot boiz. Kiwi builders (youz) are the best!

Great job! That's the kind of finish work I try and accomplish with my own projects. I wish more peoplei meet in the industry were willing to do such nice work. I see some real laziness with indoor and outdoor construction here. Just barely meeting code to make a few extra $€¥£ I just did a very small deck and stairs with 2 nice stair banisters as the railing posts. I used 4x the number of fasteners because I pocket holed the entire decking system pulling the decking down from below. The frame and deck have completely hidden fasteners and so they aren't exposed to liquid water, only water vapour. It's not possible on a deck your size obviously plus it wouldn't be up to code but it's pretty neat not seeing any fasteners on an exterior project like a deck. Awesome job with your channel so far you two do a great job with your carpentry and you do a killer job editing your videos. Keep it up!!:)

What kind of finish do you usually recommend?

amazing deck. cant wait for the fence (:

You have a track saw don't you? Why did you do those free hand rip cuts on the jobsite saw?

Not asking for the actual figure, but what's the ballpark cost(to the customer) for a job of this size?

hey could you make a vid about how you stagger the deck boards?

y'all really showed off on this one.

i like but a bit more airflow underneath?

Good job. Are you not afraid your miters will separate with time?

What a transformation

Smart decking job,great mitres!! Only thing i would say is maybe box round the seating post with decking instead of seeing the post timber. Judt my opinion,not a criticism! Great job though boys!

Yep Job to be proud of.
