Bowman Lane Project Day 6 - MORE VEKA PERGOLA AND RAIN!

What happens here

The narrator demonstrates inserting small, color-matched composite plugs into pre-drilled screw holes on the wrapped posts. He uses a hammer to gently tap each plug flush with the surface of the composite board, creating a clean, finished appearance by concealing the fasteners. He refers to this as 'setting the plugs'.

Goal: Hide exposed screw heads with matching composite plugs for a clean finish.
