We should have had a crane! Outdoor kitchen build with a twist!

What happens here

The roof of the new extension will feature a rounded, decorative aesthetic. To achieve this, pine tongue and groove planks, which are 3/4 inch thick for flexibility (not 2-inch structural planks), are carefully cut and bent to follow the curvature of the timber frame. They are installed by staggering the joints to create a strong, continuous surface. A Milwaukee table saw is used to precisely rip the planks to size.

Goal: Create the curved ceiling for the extension
