I'm looking forward to seeing photos of your first party with all the people hanging out at the cool bar. I too love the burnt bamboo. The tin roof is so Hawaiian. Wendy

Looking good. We also did the corrugated roof. To make it look a bit aged we painted the top primer red and the underside a flat brown

Thank you. I am really happy with the way it turned out but are we ever done? I always want to add something else. Thinking about a roof over the seating area with palm leaves as the top material.

Very nice looking, I love the redwood, wish we could get it here. How did you get that green color for the bamboo ?

K_dog posted on 09/17/2013

Thanks Guys. The Green Bamboo I bought on ebay which was just cut down then I put varnish on it so it so lock in the color for as long as possible.It is still green 2 yrs later but not as green.

Lookin' good, the green bamboo is a unique touch.

I'm just over the hill from you in Pleasanton, unfortunately I'm in between home bars. Keep up the good work!

Picking out and loading the wood, cutting, nailing, drilling, bolting, painting, staining, sun, sweat, splinters, and money, money, money...I like the way this photo shows what makes it all worth the effort !!!
