Building A Fireplace Feature Wall In A Screen Porch
What happens here
The team begins cutting the wood slats for the bottom section around the fireplace opening. Using a circular saw, several 2x6 pieces are cut to 10-inch lengths. These pieces are then brought to the wall and installed horizontally using a nail gun and ensuring they are level with a spirit level. They plan to have 10 of these pieces for the lower section.
Goal: Secure the horizontal wood pieces around the base of the fireplace.
