I like the overhang too. Ought to keep the rain back out of the way. :)

N454, you did all that with your lil ole LT15?  Nice.

Now I see why you wanted the bed extensions.

Interesting contrast between dark and light.  Two different
species ? Or different finish?  (or both?).

Keep up the good work.

Some lumber came off my land, but most was takin from a provincial park, that was seeded in the 40's. Yeah the contrast is okay, I wanted it to be same, amazing how the pine and spruce take stain different. Thanks for the complements guys

that is great, no fooling on the overhang, I like what will be the porch, you should be able to relax there.
