Hi Mick;

The swoops at the extreme ends in walnut and spruce were definitely the hardest. They curve sheer-to-sheer, where the center spruce design is simply laid parallel to the long cedar strips on the deck. It took a month to do the end swoops, and a week to do the rest of the deck! As the designers had said, it was tough to keep the sheer-to-sheer strips fair. Lots of work. Thanks for the nice comments.

Best Regards, Spidey
