Jim, that is an excellent looking deck, really well built...


... except for how that other doofus cocked up the footings. If I were living there that would really bug me. But I'm a bit OCD.

You won't see them once the decking is installed.

That corner will be concealed by the stairs, actually. And I plan to box in the other pillars with leftover wood. Wendy can plant flowers or ferns in them.

Had a mis queue tonight. The guy that tacked the joists in tonight used interior nails instead of the 12p galvanized nails I had left there. So Bruce had to go back and pull them all.... Sigh. Do over.
