Ron, those boards are simply amazing!

I'm starting to wonder what you do with all those beautiful cutting boards you make? I recall seeing several a few times here.

Thanks! I give them to friends and relatives. Some friends and relatives have 2 or 3 of them. I don’t have much room for scrap wood in my workshop so I turn them into cutting boards before the scrap pile gets too big.

Nice boards...ditto on the room comment. Friends or gifts for big job clients makes them remember me in a good way, I hope. Just have to find time to knock them out...

We bought a cabin March 2021. I decided the deck was too small and expanded it from the original 12" x 28" to 20' x 28, and added a sheltered barbeque area plus a pre-fab gazebo kit. I still have to finish the stairs but we ran out of time. Sorry for the first pic, I couldn't get it rotated correctly. It's the original deck framing after the deck boards were removed. The last pic is my lovely wife enjoying a glass of wine by the fire table:

Pressure treated wood.

Looks great. Composites are nice but tough to beat the look of real wood.

Lovely deck!
