    Hi Andrew, yes that fence is the perfect colour for your new space. Love the two swings and where you put them, I remember back when you got those swings. I sometimes spend hours trying to to figure something out and you have the answers so easy. Love the good solid timber’s your using are they 8x8? The swing frame is a gorgeous beautiful job. The metal brackets just finish it off nice. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

  • @b-lopez394
    @b-lopez394 7 місяців тому

    Nice! You should have coated the buried part of the post with tar to prevent premature deterioration since you live in a high moisture area. Is the plan includes sun shade? It helps the swing chairs last longer from baking from sun.

    • @TKCL
      @TKCL  7 місяців тому

      No shade as that heavily interferes with recording light for future videos.

  • @madampolo
    @madampolo 7 місяців тому

    I thought you should have concreted in the posts but that would have made it hard to be able to take them out if you ever wanted to. It might be the camera but it sure looks like your fence needs a second coat of paint. You guys must entertain tons of people a lot of times. Your pool looks so good in the background!

    • @TKCL
      @TKCL  7 місяців тому +1

    And there is your first mistake. cutting the posts off. It is a good idea to put a slant on the top of the posts so water does not just sit there. but runs off. You don't need a lot. % degrees is all that's required. But then I see you are adding more stuff above so my comment is irrelevant in this case. Should have waited to the end of video before commenting.
