Zoning Board Battle: My fight to build a deck!

What happens here

Frankie begins installing the decking boards onto the completed sub-structure. Each board is measured, cut to fit the specific length, especially along the curved perimeter, and then secured to the joists using a cordless drill and screws. This process is shown in a time-lapse, revealing the deck surface gradually being covered.

Goal: Cover the deck frame with decking boards
