Great job and can I say, love that you had your son helping you. I admire the effort he puts into doing a good job. It always meant so much to me when my dad involved me in his projects

[DeniseContreras-vc]

I was looking for belt suggestions, but also appreciate your foster care suggestions, have been pondering the idea for a while and hearing you talk about it really help influence the idea. Keep up the positive influence.... You're reaching out 😃

[mickichikwinya]

I noticed that you appear to be praying for the Seattle SuperSonics to return one day too. Great build. I'll be emulating it come Spring. It's exactly what I need to build.

Love the channel and love your heart Nick! I discovered your channel through my journey researching laser projects after we purchased our P2/F1 bundle late last year. Looks like I’m sub #3 to the new channel so definitely looking forward to your content there as well. I’m a proud Pit Boss/Blackstone guy also. Keep up the good work sir and we’ll keep watching here in Ohio. I was an OTR trucker for 30 yrs and had the pleasure of visiting your state at least half a dozen times., God’s country out there, my friend…take care!

[susyjacobs]

oh my, , you are so amazing. I loved every bit of this. 🐜 lol

Nice little project. If I were doing it I would have used 6x6 posts and any exposed cut ends of pressure treated wood, needs to be re-sealed. Also, using a scissor lift would be okay; however, you would need a rough terrain scissor lift, which is quite large compared a 19’ electric scissor lift, which not go on grass into a backyard. The deck part was a very nice addition! Thought you might of shown a wide shot of it all completed with the lights on, all decorated.

I would of going to a metal roofing company and ordered exact length on your roofing, usually about 2/3's the cost of a big box store.
No seams less possibility of leaks.

[tylerpeerson]

Im digging holes for a free-standing patio cover right now. Smaller than yours, like 10x14’ or so. I was going to do a metal roof too. Lean-to style. I was planning in doing about 18 inches deep each hole. 2 inches of gravel and 16 inches of concrete in a 12 inch tube. Do you think that works? Im also in western washington.

[janeyurina]

Such a awesome work.., just want to know how long did it take to finish whole thing?

[Hunter-jzpt]

Where do you live? How do you keep code reinforce for hurricanes? Are you confident about storm endurance?

[cjcompton]

Looks great. I think you may have some issues with your lumber sizing. Looks like you mostly use 2x6's. Might want to look at a span chart

[hissonshinegirl]

I love it & agree the over kill looks fantastic. Black & wood is a fav of mine too!
Love the grill area back wall.
How did you install the frame for the cedar siding behind the post you already had in place?
I hope you understand my question.

FYI regarding the base screw. In SW Washington (edited the post as I just heard you are in W Washington as well!) I bought one of those screw post bases for a new mailbox and we get enough rain that the soil becomes saturated to the point that the mailbox is now leaning just a bit and there is some motion when I push on it, but it is propped at the base with some concrete remnants so it is good to go, but for my area I will probably redo it with a concrete base at some point.
