OK Jerry, you have a dock, where is the water  ;D

Great job on the dock.  I'm guessing from the size of the dock, you have some kind of structure for it?

The inside framing is done. Framing is 4x8 with 1/32" scribed siding.  Stained with Minwax Golden Oak.
My lightning screws up the stain.



More to follow later.

The outside is made of 2x12 planking coated with 1 to 3 coats of SilverWood Stain.

The doors are stained SilverWood then white over that and peeled with mineral spirits and scotch tape the Chuck Doan way.

You know Jerry, that I now have silverwood stain. I might just have to use some to see if I can achieve what you have shown us. Those wood planks are superb! I know lighting is also a small problem, but the dock pictures (shown earlier) look a little darker than the outside wall pictures, or it may be my eyesight. I was thinking that silverwood stain would be more darker though.

And Larry is correct when saying that you are the master of framing. How did you make the door rollers/pulleys?
