Hi all.
Thanks all for your comments.
The planks are Tanganyka from online hobbies. I use medium oak stain on them. They are mostly the original colour.
If you read from the beginning of the build somewhere I explain how I get the look. ( I hope that doesn't sound sarcastic)

Hi guys.
Here is the latest update.
I have made the gratings and installed them on the deck. Next job is the stairs.
Take care. Chris.
