    Good morning, April! Wow! Talk about a home being "decked out!" This is a great addition to your deck. Not only can you store your outdoor tools, but you can have a nice, dark, quiet, out of the way place to nap without people bothering you!😂😂 Excellent project! Have a great week!

  • @qapla
    @qapla ปีที่แล้ว

    I like it! Good thinking, April. That is such a clever way to utilize spare, wasted space. The unistrut looks like the way to go for this. Thanks for mentioning that it is expensive but, it is a one-time expense. The wood-on-wood is a much less expensive way to go but, over time, it will be much more difficult to use if you put too much weight in that drawer.
    Looking forward to see what else you do in this series.
