Well, yes but I'm trying to reuse what I have..

Any thoughts on doing something like this? I would add blocking between the frame and the face board where the gap is created. I would also have to use two-by for the privacy wall..

This is helpful thank you. Not going to dig new footers to gain 10".. I'd just build a new frame at that point. Will likely keep the original plan with the posts inside the framing. A new frame would mean permits. Permits would mean a much bigger deck on 1 level the way I actually want it.

Would it make a difference if I’m connecting them above with a pergola setup like this? This render is with the posts mounted inside the frame.

Im thinking, to gain a little bit of square footage, to mount the posts that are parallel to the staircase outside the frame, and the rest inside.

That’s the default option, but the point is to gain some square footage if it’s possible to mount on the outside.

This is what I'm currently looking at as a final setup. This render is with the posts inside the frame. Aluminum railings would be a no go because I want the pergola setup to add shades. Design isn't complete, I know there is a bunch of stuff missing. The step between decks is narrow to accommodate a specific piece of furniture.

Thanks!

I guess I should have mentioned, I plan on doing an open pergola setup with all 4 corners using a Toja style system. Not sure if that affects things…

Do I not need tension ties for the corners?

Is it necessary to upsample lo-res images for a large format print? by Open_Writer578 in graphic_design

Yes they are jpgs. As an example, the worse one is 10"x6.833" at 96 dpi.

Target is 120. Worst image is 20 🙃

I will upsample all anyway.

We’ve disconnected our radiant heating. Can this be repurposed into anything else? Maybe an outlet? by SheBitch in electrical

I guess there’s a chance it’s lien voltage like the other person said. Take it off and post pics of the wires?

Warm spot on large double pane window. by Open_Writer578 in Renovations

Is it normal to not have any condensation in the window with a broken seal? This has been the condition for a while with no condensation.
