It was just a 5 foot fence that I redid to 6’. And put two posts in 12” sonatubes, Dug for the pad and made the rafters and blocked every 2’. It’s a 3.5 / 12 slope. Just need above 2.5, the snow doesn’t stick to the metal. It slides off. I think I’ll be good but just in case I have a roof rake that I’ve never used.

Here’s latest progress on my project. First of four equal sections is complete and the hot tub is on it and out of the way so I can continue on down the porch…

You’ve been working hard. Hot tub looks good there.
Everything looks good.
Oh the name of that injection for your knee is Durolane . It’s like a jelly that lasts a lot longer than cortisone. About $500 up here. Not covered.

It does. I see my surgeon on the 30th after an X-ray on the 24th. I’m going to ask him if he thinks it will be good for me. If I am, I’ll probably get it done.
No rain yet but we’re going to get 2 to 3 inches today. And 2 tomorrow. But they also said it would start last night and nothing yet. 🤞

Great, I hope he can do it. Let me know if he does and how it works for you….😎

Never got any rain yesterday but it was a 50% chance. Next chance Thanksgiving day.

Turkey goes into the oven shortly to be finished on the smoker…😎

It supposed to take about two weeks to work.

That’s quick. My cortisone shots for my neck took three rounds each a month apart but I’ve had relief now for four years.

Doesn’t look like metal.

The new shingles are nice not having to line up cutouts. Just, bang bang band bang. Next.

I hear ya .
Mine was sore for a couple days, so I put the tens on and it helped. I also have one of those knee pillows that I use when my back is sore and it helps. I know, weird. Haha
Did C carry up the shingles for you. L helped me on just about everything on the hot tub addition. Sometimes reluctantly.
Haha
I know she’s glad it’s done. Now we just need a hot tub.

No help from C, she was at her office.
I don’t think I’ve seen your tub addition?

Had to wait a year for our tub, supply on them just like SXS’s and everything else….

@lowrider & @Smitty335 I found some maple boards for sale. Do you want me to send them down. I’ll split them up. 😊

CA dollars???

I don't remember where but I think Monte wanted to know what band saw I ended up purchasing. Well...I looked high and low but not on the Cape for a 90's vintage 14" Delta bandsaw to go with my tried and true (mostly) 1991 Delta table saw with Uni-fence. Parts are rare and the complete band saw is less available except for the collectors mostly in New England and one in Southern Georgia that is pretty rusty. Gave up and bought a Grizzly 14" one horse that will do 12" re--saw with the lift kit installed. Reviews are good and some date back to 2005 or before and I've found their service responsive and sometimes free on parts. Ordered some Timber Wolf bi-metal blades and some stuff from Rockler they swear will make life fullfilling and hot dogs taste better. Hard to improve the Costco quarter pounders.

On another subject, I got a report from a friend with relatives on the Fraser River and those folks hit by the floods are suffering terribly...mud slides took out large sections of Rt1 and local roads around Hope...cattle scattered or drown and everyone is moving to high ground as the waters rise. Best to all those effected and hopefully the repairs will happen waters recede before freeze up.
