computer-generated transcript - may not be 100% accurate
" Now the other wood that we've combined up here is western red cedar which were used overhead for the new porch ceiling and just last week. We made these. Trellis is which are a large format cedar trellis that will eventually allow a climbing rose to live here and which the homeowner thinks might have originally existed here to provide a little bit of privacy from what is a pretty busy street. The trellis is made out of western red cedar one inch. It's also said it held together with a lap joint. Secured with glue and down some breads. The way all the cuts came out so even is that after I made the first cut. I built this spacer the spacer has a piece of wood that fits into the previous groove. That allows me to set my guide up for my next slice. This also takes into consideration the amount of bar room that the rudder itself needs. A spacer allows me to finish the cut and yet. It has to be slid into a groove. That was here for the previous trellis. Grizzled -- down on the bottom that we're gonna use to hold it into place. They need to be screw gunned down to secure the trellis. The homeowner wanted nice big blocks to let a lot of light in but still give some privacy we have this cutout here. For a hanging plant."
