This thing isn't going ANYWHERE! Locked in for justice for sure!!

What happens here

The primary deck boards are then systematically installed across the main areas of the deck. These boards are cut to length and fastened securely to the joists using appropriate deck screws or hidden fastening systems. During this step, the workers carefully work around the perimeter of the framed inlay, cutting the main deck boards precisely to fit flush against the inlay's boundary. This leaves the inlay area open and prepared for its specialized decking pattern, ensuring a clean transition to the inlay.

Goal: The main deck boards are installed, carefully working around the inlay area.
