[@samueladams584]

Good video... Underappreciated so far...

[@wesalmeidarestorations8128]

Great video, and great job putting it together. Keep up the good work. I just started doing some restoration videos this year. I've been working on a bunch of stuff, and this is a great idea. Looking forward to more ideas.

Not only can you enjoy a nice cigar out there but you can also enjoy a nice joint as well 😁

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Very true 😁

[@shmarker]

You definitely know your way around a drill! Great video

[@budgettech5526]

Great posts. Where did you get the metal brackets to attach the posts to the concrete?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Home Depot or Lowe’s!

[@Topes_Sprinkle]

Nice video. What type of fabric did you use and where did you get it from?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Search “10x10 Sun Shade” on Amazon, it is woven plastic fiber, will last 2-3 years

[@Topes_Sprinkle]

@@taylor.g.deloye Thank you!

[@amclymon]

Nice built do you have a link to the sunshade of Amazon?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Thank you!

[@anubhabsagar]

Very nice video. It would be nice to put links to the materials you used.

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Sorry about that, here is a quick list: 2-48” concrete form tubes (cut in half) 4- Simpson 4x6 anchor posts 4-4x6 posts 8’ 4-2x8 beams 10’ 1-2x8 board 12’ (corner cross braces) 8-2x4 across the top 12’ 16-Simpson 2” bracket to secure 2x4 1-10x10 sun shade (Amazon) 4- bags concrete 4-rebar pieces 2’ 4-eye screws (secure sun shade Rope/chain (secure sun shade) 1 gal polyurethane 8- bolts, 8 washers, 8 nuts (secure posts to anchors) Box of 2” screws 8- lag bolts (top beams to posts) I think that’s everything!

[@MrFrijol32]

Why not using 4x4 post? Was 4x6 more for the look or do you really think it holds better, dont you have a lot of weight on top ?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Just for the aesthetic, 4x4 works too and they are slightly less expensive!

[@belletan9558]

What did you use to hold the joist? And where can we get it?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Lowe’s/Home Depot, they look like this: www.lowes.com/pd/Simpson-Strong-Tie/5013278903?cm_mmc=shp-_-c-_-prd-_-bdm-_-ggl-_-LIA_BDM_103_Roofing-Gutters-_-5013278903-_-local-_-0-_-0&ds_rl=1286981&gbraid=0AAAAAD2B2W_mzsTw3HEpzPm2OH_zlPLAM&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIxcSArrbY-QIVnwqtBh2MaABrEAQYEiABEgJYS_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

[@richm8848]

Sorry if i missed you saying it. What is the L and W of your pergola. By the way, you made me much more confident when i do mine in the spring

[@taylor.g.deloye]

It’s 10’x10’ Good luck with your project!

[@bigtreeSSS]

Did you make pergola roof with angle or horizontal?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

The sun shade is woven on top and under the cross beams to prevent movement and give it a nicer look. I hope that helps

[@mcdlb181]

Your existing shade structure is anchored to the eve ? Did I see that right?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

I’m not 100% sure what you mean- the beige sun shade is weaved through the top 2x4s and then anchored into eye bolts in the 4x6 posts with nylon rope. I hope that helps!

[@eluna58]

What type of wood did you use?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Douglas Fir from Home Depot :)

[@Mytoya2]

Are you in California? If so can you come to my house and fix my pergola? Someone charged me $2000 and never finished it. It's been a year now. I'm in the desert. Joshua tree national park area

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Hello! Sorry to hear that happened. I am in Arizona. I recommend contacting a local handyman to fix finish the pergola for you. You may want to research what legal options you have regarding the unfinished work. Thanks for watching!

[@155stw]

Is this redwood or Douglas fir?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Douglas Fir!

[@davidbro1332]

What kind lumber?Doug fir?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Yessir!

[@toddytwotones2905]

How deep did you dig footings?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

About 20”

[@zulaab123]

Can the post be setup in 4 inch concrete slab

[@taylor.g.deloye]

Yes you can do that, I would recommend pouring the slab first and then drilling the footings and setting brackets.

[@emikentiokiet7996]

What sizes of wood did you use?

[@taylor.g.deloye]

4x6s for the posts, 2x8s for the top beams, 2x4s for the canopy

[@emikentiokiet7996]

@@taylor.g.deloye Thanks much!

[@Ironbuket]

This was wrong because the weight of the main cross beams should be carried directly by the uprights and not by bolts? This is how not to do it acccording to other videos Ive watched.

[@taylor.g.deloye]

It’s definitely not wrong, lag bolts are rated for 1,000s of pounds, the beams are 25lbs.
