Wow im so glad to see your work. I have a small step from my deck that I want a curved step this makes sense. I think I can do it now!😊
Very practical and helpful. Good work!
Best beard I've ever seen.
Billy Auschwitz thanks
Thank you, this is very helpful.
Ok wifey just bought a hot tub and wants a round deck for it to sit on- built plenty of decks but never a round one-this helped allot- thanks!
Glad we could help. Thanks for watching
Great work guys! Love and wished I had you guys building the deck for me! I’m firing the guys today that working on my build. Thanks
Awesome. Exactly what I needed to know for this project. Thanks!
Glad we could help.
Love it! Relief cuts, never thought of that! Those sawhorses are my new favorite, just got them🤘
Austin Galloway thank for watching and yes, good horses!
AKA "kerf cuts" in carpentry lingo. :)
This guy should make a video about how to grow a beard
First video of your watched and subbed, very well explained, thanks for sharing.
Peter Kiernan thanks for watching
Would those relief cuts not lead to rapid wood splitting and cracking from moisture getting into all those cuts and then drying out?
I think sealing those in with a glue or some type of sealer to keep it from holding moisture and rotting would be a good idea.
what's a spring and how do you adjust it to different diameters?
can you please tell me what you mean by 1 foot 2 inch "spring" please..thank you so much
Slicing the rim seems to work alright. I like how it all turned out, but you could also laminate many layers of thin plywood correct?
Yes, that would work
Would you or anyone suggest filling the relief cuts with a filler like epoxy or Bondo body or wood filler? My thinking on this is to re-encapsulate the piece to guard against moisture and ice damage.
yes, a waterproof tape or paint will work well
Great advice!
victoria & Johnny rodriguez thanks! And thanks for watching
Those relief cuts are shoddily laid out.
Good stuff to know
LandMaster hope the video helped and thanks for watching.
Thanks man!!
Alright I’m a newbie at this... but after making all the kerf cuts, can you still attach there when placing deck boards? What if the screw goes right through one of them? Thanks!
Once the rim is curved and nailed in, the relief cuts become tight. We had no problems with the deck screws. Good question, thanks for watching and hope this helps
The Deck Answers awesome thanks so much!! I think you may be the only one who’s ever responded to something I’ve commented on here 😆. Appreciate it!
I can’t seem to find a straight answer about building a ground level deck (technically floating I guess because not sitting on the ground but near). I was looking if you had a video on it...
@@jbj77 what do you need to know about a ground level deck?
The Deck Answers thank you!! If I’m making it even with my cement walkway, the frame goes into the lawn. How am I supposed to leave anything open for air?! It’s literally the yard around the deck. Should I just dig out more dirt inside the frame to make it all lower??
your rim should have been a para lam or a double 3/4 tention scored pressure treated plywood with galvanized ring shanks .then shaped anything out with a flap disc for the radius part of the rim one more tip the top or apex of your arch to the spring should be snapped out and the halfway point marked at that point 90 degree back to the center line will give you the perfect three point arch everytime .its advanced geometry unlike my ex girlfriend math never lies
What level was that
"I don't know if you can see that or not..." that's you cue to pan down!
What’s he’s mean when he said 1’2” spring
0:55
What does he mean when he says he has a one foot two inch spring?
Waylon Graves Moving the spring moves the centerpoint of the circle up farther.
@@coversanddecks So am i correct to assume that the point in doing so is to extend the deck out further, or is there some other reason i dont know of?
Waylon Graves that is correct
Thanks for the answers.
I think he means the overhang, no deck under
That's called kerf bending, for anyone who cares.
Ummm by circumference you actually mean diameter....
