Outdoor Kitchen Photo Update
Posted on 5/11/17 at 9:12 am
Posted on 5/11/17 at 9:12 am
I have gotten several requests to show an update on the outdoor kitchen. First of all, many thanks to all of the OBers who have helped with this project. You know who you are.
I would say that from a financial standpoint I am about 65% complete. From a time standpoint, maybe 50% of the way there. I plan to keep working on it over the summer and maybe have everything sewn up by Labor Day weekend.
List of Accomplishments:
Tore down old carport
Built a couple of deer stands with the scrap materials
Erected a 26 x 36 pavilion
Treated pine frame with diesel fuel and motor oil (old school)
Decked the entire thing in 1x8 rough heart pine
ran power, water, and propane lines from the house
repaired rotten wood and damage from tearing down carport
started to lay out kitchen cabinets, sink, stove
Built grill table for Joe and propane grill
Things left to do:
Install and paint porch flooring in the kitchen area
Install gutter between roof lines (sooner rather than later)
Install lockers/closets on wall along house
Stain the decking
Security system, cameras, etc
lighting scheme interior and exterior
Install T/G pine on the ceiling
Fans
Hook up all plumbing
Exterior siding on W wall
Patio furniture
Some sort of island
I am sure there is a lot more. But I don't want to think too much about how much I still have to do!
Here are pics from beginning to current:

Looks nice, as an aside, on first glance, picture #4 looks like a penis is sticking out of that shirt collar.

I would like to know what you're going to do with the section where both roofs meet? How are you going to waterproof that or are you just not worried about it?
Stove is ridiculous.

That's an issue. I am gonna fabricate some sort of gutter. It's hard to see, but basically the new roof is higher than the house roof and overlaps. So it dumps all the water onto the house roof. When it rains, it's gonna be a tsunami in there until I can get something done about it. It's absolutely next on my list.

You know your house is going to flood now right? That roof is directing a downpour straight into that door jamb.
Who advised you to pitch that roof into the house like that?
ETA: I see you've already though it out
ETA 2 a gutter will do nothing to help that.

Is that OB'ers doing the framing?
Nice area!

Looks like you're well on the way. How are you connecting it to the camp, and how will that drain?
I'd have probably just poured a slab (cheap skate everything I do), but I know that deck will be very nice once finished.

i was asking because i have a similar issue with my home. I have a very large free standing carport/outdoor kitchen area and the roof design is just like yours. The porch I built coming off the front of my house meets that free standing carport and every attempt to completely seal has been a failure. I put flashing and rubberized roofing tar where they meet and the shite still leaks.

the original flat roof design was the best. Not sure why he decided to put a gabled roof on there. I had no choice with mine since the carport was already erected.

Metal ditch with slope. I've seen a lot of them.

I am going to need to see some documentation on your help.

If I see one when out and about, sure.

Damn man, you're not shitting around. That's gonna look really nice when finished
