This is part two of building a really nice deck. It's decking time. Cool stuff. Hip stuff. Neat stuff. Tracks deck. Tracks. Tracks. Cedar. Fancy hideway fastener. They go in the middle slots of both the decking surfaces. Secures in place. Keeping it pressed down. Hideway screws, but at the same time keeping them all in the same plane. I bet the Germans invented this. No Winchester, Virginia. USA. this is so repetitive. I don't even know if I want to build the deck anymore. Just got to give it the old if you're like, "Hey, this inspired me to build my deck." I'm really sorry. It's fun when you start and it's fun when you finish. The rest of it sucks ass. All right, let's talk building code 206-139, which states that 2x10 lumber floor joist cannot span past 12 ft in total distance with a load bearing greater than 50 FPS. All right. Did all the ladies leave? Okay, fellas. Listen. If your wife, girlfriend, or significant other sends you this DM and saying, "Hey, babe. We should build a deck this summer in their backyard, how fun it would be. It would be so much fun." Maybe her name is Kelly. I don't know. Here's my best piece of advice. Tell her all of this is CGI. It's stage. It's not real. But then here's how you prevent even having that conversation. Leave that DM of this video in your message. Leave it on red. Trust me, it'll save you the drinking problems, the bad backs. You're probably going to say something that you're going to regret, and she's going to be You're welcome. Now, let's get back to our regular scheduled programming. Do you believe in love after love? I can feel the thing inside my sack. I really don't think you're strong enough. No. And that's just without a warm up either. Not even halfway. Here's the problem with me. I'm a hard worker. I'm a hard lover. Work hard and friend hard. Sometimes it's hard to stay hard. Well, like being motivated to continue and be mentally, you know, sharp and with it to be like, "Hey, we're going to go through this project. Yeah, hurrah. Hurorah. Let's do it. Who's going to carry the boats?" You know, David Gogins kind of stuff. I'd love to build a deck with David Gogggins. Probably make me cry. But then we'd go after something fun like gelato. Well, that's half a deck right there. It's overrated to have a full deck. I think half of a deck is just fine. My back's tight. I'm going home. Watch sevenths or something. Maybe brush my mustache. Okay. See if part three.
