Building a Glass Deck out of Glass Block

I have always wanted to make a glass floor or glass deck so I got a bunch of glass blocks from Home Depot and made this Glass Deck with LED lights underneath it.

You could sandblast the blocks. They would diffuse the light and be a bit less slippery.

Honestly...in my head I was thinking...WHY?! Just...WHY?! But was intrigued and deep down I would totally be stoked to sit out there to have a beer, chat, and enjoy a sunset. It looks absolutely beautiful. Nice design!

Rent out the platform to photographers for model shoots.

This came out so beautiful! IDK, but men that are creative and like to build things from scratch and are not affraid to get their hands dirty are very appealing.

Must be the joys of living in a dusty, sandy desert climate. You can keep an air filter in use here in the Midwest for a year or two and it will barely look dirty at all. No joke, I just replaced mine and two relatives filters and they looked almost new!

As someone that sells glass block and structural glass floors, this is a beautiful application!

Really love what you said about "experiences"... as a society we should be more focused on that over things. This was a cool build and enjoyed watching it start to finish.

Wow! I'm constantly blown away by your creativity and unique designs

[benjkeller]

Wow, stunning build! It’s not for everyone, but it doesn’t have to be. Really beautiful concept and the end result is gorgeous.

[ianolinares]

It's really cool. I hope the reflection of the sun on the glass blocks won't kill the birds flying above it.

This feels like a destination art installation. Something that would make people want to visit so they can witness and Instagram from it/about it. Good work, Ben.

I love the idea of a glass floor in the desert. It's beautiful, especially at night. Looks awesome. Well done!

[davidroe]

So cool. I just love the effect. I’m currently redesigning my backyard and leaving a place for a future hot tub deck. This could be a perfect option!

[Poor_Mans_DIY]

i am bummed that you did not build this in your house like your other wonderful projects but on the other hand, I am impressed with your back yard! LOL. Nice build!

[darrelcdammann]

That's kind of cool, how the ef you get a mountain? We're they selling for half price lol

If only this work of creativity somehow spoke of life and its meaning. Actually, it does. Some people have so much time on there hands...it...doesn't make me bitter? I think? 🙂

If dirt become a problem between the plastic and glass try sanding the bottom of the glass tiles to create the diffuser effect

Would this be functional for a gaming room? Main concern would be using an office chair on this surface, and whether it would roll smoothly while sitting.

[ryanmundt]

Wow! Very cool. Important to see all the work that went into it. Pretty elaborate

I was going 100% : "What is this guy doing with some glass bricks in the middle of the desert, what purpose does it serve, it doesn't make any sense?", until you said " I value experiences". Congrats for your view and for sharing this project, sometimes we focus too much on tangible assets and forget to invest towards some unique experiences.
