Some updates.
Finished off the bamboo work on the bottom here
Picked up the matching shelf to the one we have had for a decade from my in laws
Shelf was too tall, so I made a coffe table out of the top piece
Bought a new truck 
Worked on my end tables.
Made a new lamp
This is how the end tables look as of right now, still need some work.
They ended up a bit different from my 3D plans... But I still like em.
That's it for now. Mahalo for checking it out
Cheers
Darren

Thanks and thanks 
The fireplace/heater is just an inexpensive unit that we picked up at Canadian Tire (hardware store).
It keeps the space warm all winter long, when/if it drops below about -2c (28f)we might use blankets as well. I plan on re-facing it with some 1x? pine, with a routed out cook islands design. And when I finish the space under this room (nautical theme) it will be heated with a baseboard so that should help keep everything toasty all winter

My Tiki space started off as a Japanese "style" deck, an extension of our Japanese garden.
The deck is on three levels each one 10'x 18'
upper deck June 2007
in June 2010 I put a roof over the mid level deck
That's the same sign I have...now if I could only be as creative as you in your bar and deck design!
In March 2012 my wife and I went to Hawaii for the first time, and I bought a cheesy Tiki bar sign...
Wife "but you dont have a Tiki bar"
Me "well I could make one"
When we got home I found this site. Oh shit.
April 2012 started the "conversion" Japanese to Tiki shouldn't be that hard....
Walled in and lightly insulated the roofed mid deck (that Philippine mask is long gone)
needed a bar
June 2012 needed a roof over the new bar..
Faux bamboo on bar front
Aug 2012 making some progress.
Nov 2012 that's the sign, I got rid of it for a while but put it back up somewhere else because i like it...and its the reason Im here... Im sure Ill get rid of it eventually, but for now its staying! and so is the TV!
I dont have any current pics of the covered mid deck (the lounge) but it has progressed since Nov.
Lately Ive been working on routering for trim around the bar itself. Ill post more pics shortly.
This summers projects:
Outdoor Tiki kitchen on lower level
wall in upper deck (most of it)
shipwreck bar under the lounge.
Mahalo for lookin

Is it possible for an admin to delete the above post (and then this one) seems kinda weird to quote my entire first post for no apparent reason...

I think this is his comment in there: "That's the same sign I have...now if I could only be as creative as you in your bar and deck design!"

Very nice job with the matching shelves and the new coffee table. Great ideas. Also loving the end tables. You have an amazing skill pulling all that together. Awesome job.
can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Thanks Dale!
Some updates
Framed in the bar level end wall and gave it a small roof. It has a doorway and a bar opening that will remain open in the summer,
and closed up in the winter.
Rebuilt the wall directly across from the bar.
Building and intermediate landing in between the levels.
and framed in the wall behind it, same deal as the other. open in summer, closed in winter.
Turned a thrift store candle lantern into a solar one
That's all for now, thanks for lookin

Quick update....
progress on the steps and put down a shiplap floor.
sewed up some curtains and a little round chair cushion.
Made some nautical looking trim (not finished) for the outside doorway. Ill make the door next, just need a porthole for it...
That's it for now.
Cheers
