Default Finished redoing our deck!

As you could tell by my last few threads I have been busy working on our snow cone stand, Mr. Snow, getting ready for the new season. I started by trying to re-finish the deck boards to get the old ugly paint off and just have bare wood. When a big rotating sander didnt work out too good, I ended up having to belt sand each individual board. This took a pretty long time as you could imagine. A couple of weeks worth of sanding after work. Will be covering with a Thompson's water seal.

Another project I did was redoing the railing. I was plagued with uneven supports, ugly top rails, and hiddeous lattice. I replaced a few supports, put new top rail, and replaced the lattice with a much cleaner wire rope look. It gave the deck a more open feel and a more modern look.

Finished the last of the cable and sanding on saturday and we opened for the season on sunday! Yall come get some snow cones!
