Awhile back, I posted that I had a few beers, smoked a stick and worked on my brick and sand patio inside the gazebo.

Here's a close up shot of my handiwork. Not spectacular by any means, but is good enough for who it's for.

Very nice.

I'm building a "smoking area" with red brick as well. May I ask how you anchored your posts?

I didn't. Damn thing weighs half a ton. The base has an outside edge that I set in concrete, then filled and tamped the middle with dirt, rock and then sand. Leveled everything off, then laid brick on top. Classic brick and sand patio.

nice little area to smoke... hows the temps out there???

Angus,

I took this shot this morning. We're a brisk 80 or so today. It'll heat up after the weekend to low 90's, but is spectacular, I must admit.

fret: don't you know you have to use drop cloths when you paint every thing white.........lol

BTW, nice job.

Cheers

Awesome job!

WTG!

Looks comfortable.

Very nice. Ours will be diamond shaped in the corner of our yard. I haven't figured out what to do about a roof yet as the size of the diamond is pretty fair. We dug up the area and set the perimeter with hollow tile cap in concrete. Area is 12x7x7.

N00b, that's a big area to cover. Post the pics when you get things done, am looking forward to see how things turn out.
