How To Build a DIY Hanging Daybed Swing on a Floating Deck - EPIC BACKYARD CHILL SPOT!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Using a miter saw, cut 5.5-inch composite decking boards to the required lengths for two arch frames (e.g., four pieces at 98 1/8 inches). Assemble these cut pieces into the arch shapes, similar in style to existing deck arches shown in the video. Secure the components of the arch frames together using a cordless drill and deck screws. Once assembled, position and attach the arch frames to the main deck frame, ensuring they are plumb using a level.

Goal: Create and install two decorative arch frames that will eventually support the daybed.

Tools and materials

  • Cordless Drill Milwaukee M18 FUEL — Driving screws to assemble the arch frames
  • Level — Ensuring the arch frames are plumb and level during installation
  • Measuring Tape — Taking measurements for cuts
  • Miter Saw Hitachi — Cutting composite decking boards to precise lengths and angles
  • Composite Decking Boards Kaya Decorator — Constructing the decorative arch frames
  • Deck Screws — Securing the arch frame components

All right finishing up laying down those field boards once they get those done They'll start cutting in for the border, but while they're doing that I'm gonna start cutting all the pieces for those arches. It's gonna be the same style as this So the arches are all decorators. Kaya five and a half solid square edge boards. So Pretty easy. It's a bunch of repetitive cuts So I know I need four at 98 and an eighth then I'm gonna install those then I can measure for the legs and then Keep it rolling so that we can get this thing up. It's gonna be raining soon So hopefully we can get at least some of this up So that tomorrow we can totally finish this area up and get on to the paper So we've got these arches all wrapped up You can see this nice little detail here Five and a half five and a half everything works out with no cuts Just wraps around real nice has that little reveal Usually enough to do and it looks freaking awesome Also got all the decking down Let's check in on Tony. See what he's doing. Oh, we got going on here Tony. Oh
