Our city inspector worked on construction of the Mandalay Bay in Vegas. He said they had to acid wash the metal several times to get it to rust (for one of the restaurants) as the manufacturers have made it more resistant to rust. We did not want rust to get onto the concrete or surrounding areas. Mrs. Fury used "Primer Red" (there are 2 different colors available) directly onto the finish and a dark brown underneath.

The "porch" roof finished. Still need to add gutters & downspouts (per city code)

The bridge supports in place.

After spending hours looking online for a polynesian tile, we found these 4"X4" accent tiles (also available in 2X8)at a local tile store to help jazz up the cheap-ass tiles for the bar and shower.

Work has also begun on the pond.......
