Making a large and cool deck for the backyard with a twist. DIY

The backyard patio needed an extension and that is what this video is about.
The deck is constructed by 2"8" both the load-bearing parts and the upper deck. That way I figured I would not need so many supporting beams and concrete footings on the ground. Not sure if that is the way to go. But this large deck is super sturdy. Oh, and the vertical pieces are just because I think it looks cool.
Yes it took a long time :D
Hope you like it :D

I love the fact that it looks like it took you the better part of a year to saw off those 2x8's

[@FlokrollProjects]

Haha. It sure felt like that...

[@woodworkingengineering2415]

Of course you know what the rotational inertia is: the side-mounted 2x8s, with no support underneath, is awesome 😊😊👏👏

Massively overbuilt. The same way I would have done it. Very nice!!!

[@FlokrollProjects]

Hehe :D Thank you very much

Love the cantilever. The layers are such a good design. Well done and it was fun to watch!

[@FlokrollProjects]

Thank you very much for the nice feedback :D

[@KM-hn8ce]

That’s looking great!! Especially for someone who doesn’t know what he’s doing 😛. Be careful it doesn’t get slippery. We missed you for too long.

[@FlokrollProjects]

Thank you very much. I will Just stay inside when it raining 😁 more videos coming soon(ish) thank you again

[@Genezilla]

Great design as always! Can't believe you just winged it. And you totally nailed it! Wishing you all the best from Australia

[@FlokrollProjects]

Juhuu, we all love Australie up here :D

[@jewdd1989]

Finally someone builds layers of deck instead of one boring slab! Looks great, hope it lasts for decades because it’ll be wonderful to use summer after summer 🤟🏽

[@FlokrollProjects]

Thankbyou. Glad you like it. I am certainly enjoying it this far. 😀

[@tommyfox4444444]

[@FlokrollProjects]

When ur almost done but u still say ur unsure of what ur doing 😂 but it turned out really good! i suggest u make a pergola where u put ur chairs at and hang some outdoor lights

[@FlokrollProjects]

Thank you, and yes i think we need a pergola of some sort, good tip :D Thanks again,

[@aquatrout]

I was just thinking that you hadn’t posted a video in a bit, I’m glad you did!

[@FlokrollProjects]

Haha. :D Thank you

[@aquatrout]

@@FlokrollProjects I just finished the video, that’s the coolest deck I’ve ever seen.

[@FlokrollProjects]

@@aquatrout thank you again. Awesome that you like it

[@achappel]

This turned out great! You must really know what you're doing!

[@FlokrollProjects]

You also turned out great. Thanks buddy

[@destroyerflogstd8070]

Truned out great

Your work is inspired. Your decking is unique. The vertical pieces are heavy on material but the return in terms of demonstrating a creative use of the materials is well worth it. The centre section is like a stage and from there you could invite bands and poets to perform for you. I wonder how many times did you have to recharge your impact driver? Thank you for making this video for us.

[@FlokrollProjects]

Thank you again :D Your comments are good, and i appreciate them. (i charged the driver alot :D)

[@gaelp]

Awesome work and cool video Sir!

[@FlokrollProjects]

Thank you very much :D

Really nice project! Those 2x8 boards will make it last forever! Doing multiple layers is way underrated. Big flat decks are super boring. I'm building a deck next week my self. I was recommended to use my palm router on all sharp edges to get a cleaner look and less tearing.

[@FlokrollProjects]

Cool, and thanks. I have faith in the longevity of this one. I did consider going over all the edge, but they where very Nice and rounded from the store. Thanks again and good luck on your deck

[@prebenbj]

@@FlokrollProjects thanks! Looking forward to your next video as always!

[@jaredhelder]

I love the portion with the sideways 2x8’s. I was wondering why you were shimming those boards. Turned out great. Wish I could build a deck in 14:24.

[@FlokrollProjects]

Cool, glad you like it :D I have to admint that i used some movie magic because the build took more then 14:24 :D

[@lululee33]

wow!! 😍😍😍

[@FlokrollProjects]

:D thanks :D
