Last night we went out to buy a new table circular saw. Our second one has bitten the dust. I trashed the bearings trying to cut the oak support which stands on the left of the deck. We also bought a planer thicknesser. I will be out tomorrow to buy beams, halve them and plane them smooth to run from this beam to the house wall. All needs to be done by Sunday when I go back to work.
Eventually there will be a transparent roof over the deck...
