    Stainless Island Top

    Installed the stainless island top this weekend. I still have some finishing to do on it to try my best to approximate the brushed stainless look on the appliances. If anyone knows any tricks to make that brushed look easily, please let me know.

      watched a youtube video on how to do the brushed stainless look with a belt sander and WD40. I will be giving that a shot this weekend, and I will add pics when I get it looking better. I can be a bit of a selective perfectionist at times, and that can create lots of extra work for myself.

      I ordered my sanding belts on amazon, and they are supposed to be here Friday.

        My wife really loves the juxtaposition of the reclaimed barn wood and the stainless steel used in proximity to one another.

          Weekend Update

          All,

          Got some good work done this weekend:

          - Got the island stainless finished
          - Put washed gravel under my car port
          - Built an extra parking spot for the Jeep
          - Gravel on the circle drive
          - nice additional coating of wash gravel on the drive
          - Gravel under the back shed
          - Gravel around all drip lines of the house

          All the new gravel got a quick test as it starting pouring on Sunday afternoon.

            game room loft

            Did some work on the game room loft. completed all the outlet covers, installed a foosball table, installed a dart board. Kids are really loving this little 8'x12" space. Glad I made the last minute decision to convert this from storage to a little game room.

                  Deck lighting

                  All,

                  Added LED String lights to the deck. We had my family out for an early Thanksgiving meal, and it was really nice dining under the stars. Three 36ft strands with very soft 2000kv color led lights. Used stainless cable with tensioners to create the lines for the lights to be supported by.

                      Table for the deck

                      My wife wanted a bid "duck dynasty" type table on the deck so the whole family could dine together. Had some time off for the holidays and did this.

                      36" wide and 12' long. When I finish the benches and chairs it will seat 14 pretty easy.

                      All out of pressure treated lumber, and I am not 100% sure how I will finish it yet. It all needs to try out some before I can start sanding and finishing. Learned to used a Kreg jig to hide all my hardware, that was a first for me.

                        My Christmas Present for the deck

                        All,

                        Got a griddle for the deck, and here it is loaded up with center cut pork chops and chicken for news years day family gathering. I will try and add me a small LED flood light for a cooking at night light.

                          backsplash from old tin

                          All,

                          Made a backsplash out of some rusty tin that I was given. It turned out pretty good, and really fits our rustic theme.
