I thought I should provide a few more pictures of Gazebos that we have accomplished. Pictured below is the “Grillzebo” It was built on a preexisting concrete pad that was formerly home to a hot tub. It is an all cedar structure using OZCO black iron fasteners and black lag bolts for accent as well as security.
To cut the major beams and the knee braces required us to set up several jigs on the band saw, but the artistic effect was well worth the effort.
