I probably still have another month to go of construction, so at least that longWhen should we expect our invites to the “grand opening“?
The wife said the same thing…You could paint a menu on those windows.
looking goodso far!Had to do a re-design on the cooking area. The Blackstone griddle that was next to the grill just was not going to work out in that location. The other design issue that changed was I had originally sloped the countertops away from the wall to accommodate any rain came in. Since I installed the new windows/covers, I put the countertops back to level.

These three photos are of the old layout. Space was just a little too tight for the Blackstone griddle.

This is the new layout. The Blackstone griddle is on a tray in the cabinet on the right, next to the 3 drawer unit. This design also let me put a vent towards the upper part of the cabinets (above the three drawer unit) since the propane bottles will be stored underneath the cabinets on the far right side.
I really hate doing things twice, but when your plans are all in your head, things change.
It has been on hold for the last three weeks or so. I had to wait to get tile ordered and in to finish the counters before I can install the grill. Then we decided to get a puppy which is been a full-time job the last week or so.How goes the grillzebo project, my friend?
Were you able to enjoy it some before this heat shut everything down?
Just out of curiosity, why did you choose not to use pex?
No real reason, other than I’ve never used pex before and I had a bucket of PVC and CPVC fittings To use.
All the lines in the kitchen, and the outside faucet and icemaker, are all connected to three-way valve on the kitchen supply, one side, goes to the kitchen. The other side goes to an atmospheric drain for winterization. All lines are sloped back to this valve. The half bath is fully insulated so I will keep water up there during the winter, but a very small low power heater in there will keep it above freezing. The water supply lines to the outside shower have their own three-way valve for draining them for the winter.I was wondering the same thing. Make sure you put a low point drain on any pipes that will be wet come winter or you will be tearing it back apart.

Yes, the stuff with the grill is hopefully, behind me. Although, in all fairness, I’ve still not even had a chance to light the grill yet since it has not been installed - fingers crossedWow - it's all looking really nice. I'm so glad you finally got the grill goat rope resolved - whatta nightmare that was for you!
Find out what commercial greenhouse use for shading. That really nice reminds me some what of the outdoor kitchen I seen in AfricaTrying to get some work done in between the sun showers here.
I decided we would need an awning on the western side of the Grillzebo for the afternoon sun. Over the last couple months, I’ve been picking up RV awning parts from craigslist here and there. Finally got everything together (I still have complete parts for two more awnings, if I find another use for them ) and cut down the awning tube to match the grillzebo width.

First picture, shows it in the up/shade position, the second photo shows it in the down/storm position.
Since this is from an RV, it will roll up when not in use or not needed
I need to track down new awning fabric for it. Everything on Amazon, the reviews are not good for their awnings.
