A Moment of Tiki: Decked!

In this most recent episode of A Moment of Tiki I tackle my last big home tiki bar improvement project of the year: Resurfacing the concrete floor in the Lagoon of Mystery and then adding a floating deck!

Way back in 2017, when I first stuck upon this crazed notion to convert the large covered patio into an immersive home tiki experience, I looked at the far end and envisioned a floating deck and booth to act as aesthetic anchors. The booth arrived much sooner than expected, the floating deck much later. But arrive it did. Follow along as I strip away the old, ugly paint off the concrete, refinish it with semi-transparent stain and sealer, then measure, cut, torch, seal and assemble one of the tikiest little floating decks you ever did see. Even if your carpentry skills are minimal, this is a straightforward project that can be accomplished by almost anyone if you're willing to be patient and pay attention to the details. It's such a feeling of accomplishment once it's completed!
