About to be torn down. Built this when I was 24 ...
I just turned 60 in January and have driven past this carport and exterior detail to the left about 200 times since I built it. It lasted 36 years , made it through all the Hurricanes that have come through Tampa Florida since it was built. At the time of building the carport etc, I did put hurricane clips on everything. The pressure treated lumber must have been much better back then because I haven't ever seen something last this long in my area. Took this Pic this past week as I was driving by still amazed it lasted till the entire home is to be demolished bery soon. Had a great teacher this was after 5 years in carpentry so we are talking 1989,1990... I know its not pretty but man it lasted a long time !! submitted by /u/Emergency_Egg1281 [link] [comments]
