Nope, but I have family that does. I work as a field mechanic for finning in the compact general construction line. I spend most of my time in the shop tho, and it's good there is basically only two of us in the city that work on the product line everyone else hates skidsteers mini loaders and mini excavators.

Sorry if I missed this in an earlier post but what are those mondo wood beams for? (Will this be a sit-down bar?) Where did you find those beams?

I'm loving this. Will definately reference this build in the future for a big peninsula room divider.

Beams are going through the plainer today and sanded down these will be a ledge more to separate the stone and the canopy. These beams are being build at a local log home manufacturer.

Great work with the canopy. What are your plans for the beams? I may have missed it...

Not planning on bringing the stonework up flush to glass are you?
