Building a Glass Deck out of Glass Block

- I have always wanted to make a glass floor or glass deck so I got a bunch of glass blocks from Home Depot and made this Glass Deck with LED lights underneath it.

This dude got his own mountain, lol.
* Let me just walk up my mountain real quick * LOL
its a small mountain more of a hill really
you could have your own mountain too if you bought property where he's at. although, i doubt he'll be dancing on that glass in the summer. i lasted 6 years there and had to go.
@@HomeMadeModern Is it more like a tor?

Wow! I'm constantly blown away by your creativity and unique designs
You could sandblast the blocks. They would diffuse the light and be a bit less slippery.
not rain is a desert
My thought would be to hit the underside, so you have the diffusion, but still keep the reflective top he likes.
James Humphrey who said anything about rain?

And if you didn't want to mess with hydrofluoric acid etchers and-the-like then maybe a spray-on coating... to the underside, naturally.
@@markzambelli I liked J. Joy's suggestion to sand blast. I suppose I used the word 'etch' a little generically. Before seeing their comment on sand blasting, I was thinking a grinder with a flap disk.
So creative! I'm looking forward to the furniture ideas for this deck!
me too!
It'll need to have wide feet to not pierce the glass
Ever seen Tron Legacy? Kevin Flynn’s house has the light up floor but also uses white Victorian furniture. Some components of the chairs and tables were transparent and behind the scenes footage reveals that they were acrylic with frosted ends, allowing the light to pass through and weave around the furniture. I don’t know how difficult that would be but i think the furniture should make use of the light from below.

I love the idea of a glass floor in the desert. It's beautiful, especially at night. Looks awesome. Well done!
Very cool project. Finally we learn why the rock hauler was created. Thanks! : )
Wow, stunning build! It’s not for everyone, but it doesn’t have to be. Really beautiful concept and the end result is gorgeous.
Rent out the platform to photographers for model shoots.
I second this idea
Agreed. The Instagram Influencers would be all over this.
@@austint19 hell yeah, dude id definitely pay to shoot here
Gotta give instagram losers a platform...
@@austint19 except that these people wouldnt pay with anything but "exposure"
That's really cool! Some elegant, sweeping shapes that reflect the light from below would look amazing up there!
Beautiful idea. Very cool. I can’t wait to see what you do with this project.
Great project. Glad you are doing it for yourself and not for others.
Great build, Ben! Very inspiring. Great idea, great execution.
Agh! Love this man. My style, clean and unique. I love 80's design like art deco, metal and geometrics
So cool. I just love the effect. I’m currently redesigning my backyard and leaving a place for a future hot tub deck. This could be a perfect option!
Now you just need colorful lights that dance to your fave tunes!
Disco in the desert!
Love your videos Ben, keep them coming!
Genius & Creative! Imagine the landing to first floor of a house construction with this idea.
Really love what you said about "experiences"... as a society we should be more focused on that over things. This was a cool build and enjoyed watching it start to finish.
This feels like a destination art installation. Something that would make people want to visit so they can witness and Instagram from it/about it. Good work, Ben.
Awesome! I can see you making additional shapes/designs with those glass blocks.
Wow great idea!!! Very creative... thanks for thinking out of a box.. keep it up!! Looking forward for more videos.... and can't wait to ur next project...... keep shining!!
Great project ... You don't need a reason when an experience is your goal. Very nice work!
Ben, this project isn't good, it is AWESOME! Fantastic idea.
Always brilliant stuff from Ben!
Great project, I think it's super cool.
Interesting build. I like it! It seems the desert always brings out the most creative elements of those who reside in it.
Awesome video can't wait till the furniture builds
Light it up 🔥🔥🔥
Wow! Very cool. Important to see all the work that went into it. Pretty elaborate
This makes me happy, don't why it just does. Nicely done Ben.
thank you!
The night shots are amazing, cool project!
Wow. This project got serious. Looks Awesome!!!
Very pretty! Your own disco floor on a mountain!
Fantastic, thanks! I've always loved glass block too. I had been throwing around some similar ideas, but your video gave me some ways to improve it. Great job :)
Awesome, thank you, will build this on my 2nd story deck.
Super cool! Love the learning experience that you went through
It’s absolutely awesome ! It needs to be bigger !!!
Just what that amazing landscape needed.
Piece of art! I love it!
Amazing! Simply amazing! I love it.
Really beautiful!!!
Super job. Great idea. Keep them coming
You are super creative! I always watch your channel keep up the good work!
Really cool! I always loved those blocks.
Another cool elegant design. Well done
Wow that’s so amazing I love it!!!
THIS IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL
This is just plain cool.
I would never make something like that, but man that is super cool.
I enjoyed the build. Great job
Absolutely so cool!! Just so cool!!!
Ive been wanting to use the glass blocks with LEDs for a walking path in the backyard. Awesome idea for a deck.
That is SUPER COOL!!!!!
Nice build, great idea.
i am bummed that you did not build this in your house like your other wonderful projects but on the other hand, I am impressed with your back yard! LOL. Nice build!
Definitely makes you think of all the possibilities with glass block.
☝️ This is all I came to say....
Cool pond cover
Very cool use of glass blocks
You actually did a lot of work. Great!!
This is such an awesome build dude nice one
My goodness, that is inspiring!
thank you David!
I love that deck!
Really cool what you were able to do....AT THE TOP OF A MOUNTAIN!
Now this is a certified banger project! Now i want to experiment with glass blocks. I thought Chris is the moonwalk specialist....
Great build really innovative.
WOW!! TALK ABOUT "OUTSIDE THE GLASS BOX"!!! AMAZING!!! VERY COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful Work! Gotta love this channel...
Legendary work.
That is so cool... Now I'm going to have to build a smaller version at my parent's house... Thanks for the idea... 👍
definitely some translucent or white furniture 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Oh ok, we are just going to skim over the fact this dude has his own mountain. Cool.
This came out so beautiful! IDK, but men that are creative and like to build things from scratch and are not affraid to get their hands dirty are very appealing.
It's really cool. I hope the reflection of the sun on the glass blocks won't kill the birds flying above it.
Disco in the desert!
That is such a dope idea 😄
Would be great for a club or similar location, where people hang out after dark.
Will the glass stones hold up to being walked on with sandy shoes all the time though? I would imagine, that they become rather scratched and dull after a while. Although that might not make them less pretty at night...just at daytime, maybe.
Dude. That is incredible. I know that took a lot of work, but was well worth it.
Awesome project! Now you need to find a way to float a disco ball above the floor. Oh, and add lasers. And a fog machine, a sound system - and a hot tub!
You should do a video on how to make the power source solar powered, it would be self sustaining
Sounds a bit pointless, nobody would make a glass deck miles from a building with power. It would essentially just be a video on how to add solar panels to a roof.
You would have to camouflage the solar setup to be transparent to the user. One smaller panel could run this for 12 hours if there is a decent battery in the circuit. Any large cordless power tool has a good candidate battery. Connect it in using a modified charging unit, and you could take the battery with you or bring one on visits. Actually, forget the solar panels. Just discretely place that modified charger under a rock or in a hole somewhere close. Solar charge the battery elsewhere.
Wow! Nice work. You can also rent out for photo shoots!!! 😁 beautiful background for sure.
Clear acrylic deck furniture!
Really cool Ben! 👍🏻👊🏻
Very cool project and video. I'm sure you heard about James Turrell, who's got his own mountain too (a volcano actually), and this made me think of his work. Bravo!
Really nice design.
As someone that sells glass block and structural glass floors, this is a beautiful application!
Love this!
This cool as hell !!!!!
Looks like something I would do
Definitely like it very creative sir
Very cool!
Superb ! Perspex type furniture would look cool it would possibly absorb some of the light from below !
Great video, wish I had one of these
Nice 👍 adding Solar panels under the glass blocks along with batt. and controls...yeah probably too diffused👍
Very creative !!!
Sick idea man
I love it, great idea. Greetings from Mexico!!
That is superb.
You should add your second channel into the Favorites section of your main channel.
The one with the container housing project.
Great project😎
its very creative, best to have a candle light dinner
That wood be an awesome pool floor.
Brilliant!!!
Thank you for sharing
Peace
So cool. Now I just need a mountain. Geez Ben! 🤣
So cool!
Super Cool!
