Let’s hear your guesses, what are the scabs for on this pergola beam?! #pergola #outdoorliving
What happens here
The builder proceeds to assemble the slatted sections. He carefully places one of the pre-cut smaller wooden spacer pieces onto the main wooden beam. Using a hammer, he drives nails through the spacer and into the main beam, ensuring a secure attachment. This process is then repeated along the entire length of the beam, positioning each spacer at a consistent interval to create a uniform slatted panel with even gaps.
Goal: Create the slatted panels by attaching spacer pieces to the main beams.

- Hammer — Driving nails to secure the spacer pieces to the main beam
