You notice how often a guy who's shaky about heights ends up working up on high? Ona you are a trooper!

Ona makes me work off the OSHA approved step ladder on the scaffold for the final set of roof panels. Doesn't look high unless you are the one up there.
Roof complete!
Bar top before tile.
Other side yard.
The lovely Mrs. Fury aging the final panels in her "spray booth".
Aloha

Boy, those OSHA people are pretty strict. That looks a little TOO safe for my tastes...
Amazing job. It's looking more and more like adventure land every day. Can't wait to see it in person!

Looking great guys! Hope to see it in person sometime.
Was aging some corrugated roofing myself last week. I sanded it, painted it black, beat it with chains, painted Crackle over top and then a color top coat. Not too bad.
Looks like Mrs Fury has a nice production line going!
Hey Ona did they make you get a haircut when you left the San Diego city limit?

Our city inspector worked on construction of the Mandalay Bay in Vegas. He said they had to acid wash the metal several times to get it to rust (for one of the restaurants) as the manufacturers have made it more resistant to rust. We did not want rust to get onto the concrete or surrounding areas. Mrs. Fury used "Primer Red" (there are 2 different colors available) directly onto the finish and a dark brown underneath.
The "porch" roof finished. Still need to add gutters & downspouts (per city code)
The bridge supports in place.
After spending hours looking online for a polynesian tile, we found these 4"X4" accent tiles (also available in 2X8)at a local tile store to help jazz up the cheap-ass tiles for the bar and shower.
Work has also begun on the pond.......

The project is coming along amazingly. Can't wait to see the bridge. I've really been enjoying this thread, vicariously living my own dreams through your reality. Good for you!
