Photo 8 - A front on view.  The railings in the back were very tricky, especially getting those posts in place!

Photo 9 - The middle tier of decking is going on.  I checked around all the piles at front to give a little overhang.

Photo 10 - Even though I don't enjoy making up sets of stairs, finding it fiddly and frustrating (hence the jig) I opted to do two sets of opposite stairs.  In for a dime, in for a dollar!

Photo 11 - To get the stairs back far enough I snipped a little gap in the longways  railing behind and kind of threaded the railing into the step railing.  This was a very tricky job.  I cut a small 45 degree triangle from polystyrene to help with the stair instillation.  This kept the stairs at the right pitch while the canopy glue set.

Photo 12 - A view showing progress so far.  Still a long way to go and I need some more stringers.

Both on your layout design and construction, and also by your superb modeling.
