It all looking great! VW,
But, don't you think that it may get just a little cramped back there................... with a hundred or so guests?......

Vintage lights ive collected over time.



Applied stone color enhancer to the brick surround and chimney. Just built the storage doors using reclaimed redwood T&G boards, i really liked the way they turned out, ill keep them the natural color.

Sink and plumbing installed. All plumbing ran to planter beds and fruit trees.



This small light is installed above the sink. Its made out of tin, if you look closely there are imprints on it, i assume it was made with reclaimed tin.



This one is the large light fixture, measure at 3 foot tall, its at the center of the patio.

V-wiz,
Your patio and oven is turning out great. I really like the light fixtures, they add a awesome rustic look.

Your counter tops, can you elaborate your on technic? I will be attempting mine soon and I really like your color along with the exposed aggregate. I hope my turns out as well.

Thanks K, after pouring the concrete while wet we spread small pebbles on the top and worked it into the concrete. After its dry we grind the surface, stained and sealed. If you go back ive shown photos of the process

Sorry I missed this post. Thanks for the response......I'm doing test pours at this time, hopefully I will figure it all out as I go. I looked back aways on your thread and did not stumble across the process you used. Can you give me a post number for the photos of the process?

Thanks,

It is post #79





We then sprinkled little peddles all over the slab, once we polish the concrete the pebbles should show up, hopefully they stay in place.



All done

I finally got around working on the bbq pit. With a welding machine and absolutely no experience in welding, I got the frame and shelving completed. This was my first time welding so try not to laugh to much. I now have to get the lid custom made or pressed. Also i plan on getting stainless steel grates.

While working on the pit i smoked some Wagyu beef.
