Nice work. Thanks for sharing. Quick question on the footing, instead of filling up with dirt could you just fill up with cement as well, I assume even more strong ?
@thedustybuilder 13 күн бұрын
Concrete around the post will rot the wood faster…… it traps moisture. A better option is to backfill with clean gravel.If you are an overachiever, you could fill the hole up with concrete instead.

Thanks for the prior reply Tom. Your video is super helpful and I love the style that lips over the pool instead of under the caps. One more question…. I am digging my holes out Monday. How close did you dig you holes out to the pool? I’m using 6x6 post I believe like you did. I’m going to do the 4” concrete pad like you did. Dig my hole to 12 inch diameter and I was going to have the edge of the diameter 12” from my pools metal wall.
@thedustybuilder 20 күн бұрын
The joists can cantilever past the beam one quarter of their length….. I think my mine were 2 ft away. If yours are only 1 ft away you should be fine……. But it might be tight trying to reach up and sneak a cover over the rail……18 inches would be better if you could manage 😬

To clarify. Your 6x6 was 2 feet away from pool wall or 2 feet away OC for the 6x6 post. My township is saying for a 6x6 post I need to dig 3x the post size. 18 inches round. Not just 12? I am going to move my post to 18 inches back from the closest edge of post to pool wall. That sound about right?

@mattparker4139 20 күн бұрын
I like how you cut the 6x6 out in the back to support your 2x10 joist where the 2x10s move towards the deck. In the front by the pool, how did you secure those 2 x10s that are resting in the support beam by the pool area where the 2x4s are sister joist for the over hang? Or is the weight of the platform enough?
@thedustybuilder 20 күн бұрын
You used to be able to ‘toe nail’ the joists to the beam. That’s honestly probably fine. But Now a metal connector is required. I used ‘hurricane ties’

I would like to use the periscope one off to the side, through an adjacent wall and end right there in the back hallway. Short trip, easier to clean. Our dryer is electric, no gas in this subdivision. The current dryer vent goes UP, not out, 15 feet to the roof. I think this is a fire waiting to happen, even with annual duct cleaning for $125.
@thedustybuilder Ай бұрын
Hmmm, when you say end in the hallway......I'm assuming it's going to vent outside. That could probably work, it might get tricky if you need to use a 90 at some point. I agree though, I wouldn't want my dryer venting onto the roof for several reasons!!
