Here's all the hands-on information you need to build any kind of deck—from the most basic to the most sophisticated. On this Building Decks DVD, professional carpenter Scott Schuttner builds two decks—one a simple, single-level deck that demonstrates the basic principles of deck construction; the other a custom wraparound deck complete with stairs, planters and built-in seating. At each step of the deck-building process, you see firsthand how Schuttner uses his proven, professional techniques to get high-quality results. For example, Schuttner shows you how to:
- Dig and pour footings,
- Install leak-free ledgers,
- Build framework that's square, level and solid,
- Lay decking efficiently,
- Construct stairs
- Make planters, stairs and built-in seating,
- Install strong, good-looking railings,
- Make a newel post, and
- Apply finishes.
No matter what your skill level, seeing Schuttner at work will help you tackle your next deck project with confidence. This DVD is a companion to Schuttner's book, Building and Designing Decks.
Scott Shuttner is a custom builder and woodworker in Alaska. A contributor to Fine Homebuilding magazine, Shuttner is the author of Building Decks and appears in the DVD Basic Stairbuilding.
