@mikeswiney5317 5 месяцев назад

I don’t know about Tim’s rationale for this type of railing, but when I rebuilt my deck, wife and I decided to go with thin stainless wire and aluminum posts which block little of not no part of your view. Since we live on a lake using this type instead of wood 4x4 posts and railings.

@kimdawcatgirl 5 месяцев назад

This is so satisfying to watch someone else do something I did, but on a much bigger and better scale. It took me three years to do mine, and that was with hiring out some jobs like trimming doors and windows, bathroom tiling, plumbing, and I hired a builder and he and I literally built it together. Of course I hired for basement, foundation and flatware cement and septic. I'm a girl, and not like I couldn't do most things, after doing the roofing myself, I decided life was too short to beat myself up and be dead of old age before I finished!😂

@davecisneros5285 5 месяцев назад

@tiffanylamp100 5 месяцев назад

Love the staircase tower. It reminds me of a lighthouse.

@haulem 5 месяцев назад

Just a thought. Consider adding flat L- brackets to the inside of the posts to mount vertically on the post and horizontally to the roof for additional strength and safety. Just a thought.

@TruckHouseLife 5 месяцев назад

I can't put any screws through that parapet wall (the wall w/ the red cap) or it might make the roof leak).

Awesome work dude!! I absolutely love the cable rail system. I looked into systems similar to yours for my deck at the lake. I couldn't stomach the prices. I made all my own connections & ran my cable through 4 x 4 wood posts. It was ALOT of work building everything myself but so worth it. I love my cable rail & lots of people stop by to see how I built it.

@dianne11ca 5 месяцев назад

Perfect choice for the railing! I had misgivings at first because of the height and how safe it would actually be, but I'd certainly feel safe up there with it. I am so glad you had to do the work and not me, because most of the set screws, and other tools would be on the ground, far below, and it would take me weeks just to get one side done, I am sure. I have always been all-thumbs, and I admire your patience and steady hand. It was very relaxing to watch. I used to watch my dad all the time. He was the same. Very patient, and his work was always beautiful to behold. He even learned macrame at one point. lol So, now I'm dating myself. lol Thanks for a great video.

Beautiful work. Just perfect for your space. Does not detract from your views at all. I think what took you the most time was explaining it to your audience. If you had sunlight more hours in a day up there, you would have had this done in one, or one and a half days. I've only just started following you. Been watching the older vids as I can to catch up. Fascinating life you live! I'm in awe of all the things you can do. Building a truck cabin, an actual living cabin, canoeing, snow boarding, playing in a band, testing drivers for their license.... the list is endless. You're intelligent, even tempered, fun, adventurous, mechanical, musical... on and on. Entertaining as hell to watch. Keep up the beautiful scenery and adventures I'm hooked.
