Building the Ultimate Pergola | Woodcraft 101

[@sueb6259]

The shot with Buddy laying on your deck while you drive by on the tractor! 🚜 😂. It came out beautifully! Worth the wait for part 2! Are we all invited to the after party??? 😁

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Buddy is always watching over me. He wants to make sure the job is done right. Buddy didn't even invite me to the after party!

@@CraftsmansLegacy Buddy is the best site supervisor ever. 💕

[@cathywestbrook7572]

Nice job! The router edge does add to the finished look. Good idea. Enjoy.......

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Thanks 👍

[@FoulOwl2112]

Looks great man! It seems your supervisor gives the wag of approval too. 🐕

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Thank you!

[@cindydineen4292]

Your back yard is turning into the perfect restful oasis. Awesome pergola and hammock! The black hardware looks great! I think the whole project has the Buddy seal of approval! I hope you guys take some time to rest and enjoy the fruits of your labor! Have a wonderful weekend! God bless!!

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Thank you! God Bless

I’m getting a Frank Lloyd Wright vibe from your stylish Pergola. Well done, Eric! 👍

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Wow, thanks!

[@Swamp-Fox]

That turned out great! I really enjoyed the video. Glad to see Buddy is keeping you straight!

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Thank you! I'd be lost without his help

[@MichaelBrown-ht9bk]

Looks great! 👍👍 you were right about the black hardware 😎

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Thank you!

[@Zamboni-0805]

[@FAMAWoodworking]

That's a nice place to don't do anything, amazing job! Congratulations! Your way of life it's an inspiration to me.

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Wow, thank you!

[@patrickretsel7048]

This turned out great Eric, you’ll get years of peaceful enjoyment from that hammock….😎

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Can't wait! Thank you

[@patrickm2237]

Buddy corp sure has you working hard.

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

No doubt about it!!

[@pmelchman]

Well done Eric. I can't show Michelle because she will want me to build her one...LOL

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Haha! Thank you

[@gengenone1163]

All the shots for the video are very well lined up. And you can also use material to drape. Long swaths of material draped over the larger part to be very nice

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Thanks a lot 😊 Great ideas!

[@glenglene8473]

how wide is your pergola? It looks great!

[@oscarrodriguez9878]

Beautiful build! What distance were the pergola posts from each other ?

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Thank you! I think 12ft? Can’t remember for certain

[@DirtDDigler]

Looks amazing, I want build a similar one. what is the width of the cross beams, 12x? and did you use 8x on top of those?

[@Douty1k]

good video. how did you anchor the posts? buried or bracket? I'm wanting to build a two post pergola that spans about 17 feet. I'm worried it will be unstable.

[@Dannys.channel]

Can you build a 3 leg pergola and have the roof extend 6 feet out from the legs so it's a walk in with no post in the way

[@CraftsmansLegacy]

Possibly. It would depend on materials and design. That’s a lot of overhang and potential weight.

[@tomfields8963]

LIKE IT!!!

[@annette3966]

Fantastic job, everything looks great! You have a real campsite in your yard! At least that's how it looks to me. The black hardware is a good choice and I liked how you rounded the edges of the wood. Buddy sure had a nice spot for supervising...lol! Loved the video and enjoy your beautiful yard!

[@TwoJeremysWoodworking]

I would love to be your friend. Haha. Great work.

[@michellekush986]
