The Deck Part 1

Well it is time to start working on the deck. I cut out the basic shape using a cardboard template and my jig saw. I made it about 2cm to big on the sides so that I could bring it down flush at a later stage. Then I cut it down the middle and got this edge nice and straight so that it matched perfectly with the brace down the centre. Getting this spot on took some time. Next I had to flatten out the area that the deck would sit on. Although it had to be a flat surface it was on all sorts of strange angles. This also took a bit of time again because I wanted it to be a nice flat surface. I think the deck is going to come up quite nice.
