    Looking really good! so far this summer, we've had fantastic weather - it's been amazing (knock on wood) and makes it actually nice to want to hang out outside. Of course, it's not the gulf sunset :)

    Still have to paint the inside of the doors but I will do that tomorrow when I have more time. Also have the door handles to attach and also paint the light tree.

    Looking good! I like the idea of multiple doors. I'm sure it'll help if you need to put in/take out equipment.

    So after dinner I decided to head out and finish the doors and light tree and hanging kit for the Radion.

    For the door handles I used some rope cleat dock ties. Thought it fitted the build.

    Ahhhh, paint those screw heads black!! IMO it would look more finished.

    sorry, we're painting the kitchen cupboards and I had the same discussion with the misses about painting the screws. Yes, she thought I was crazy until she tried one and I never got a "hey thanks good idea" I just came home one day and they were all painted. haha
