All right YouTube we're back our four-year Costco gazebo update so Many of you have been asking me about the stain You know what I use so I'm gonna put that in this video. I'm gonna talk about a couple things new rain gutters our electrical and the fan system which is just now door fan and then a couple of the things on the base So I'm here we go. So this is right about four years and this is a 12 by 14 Costco gazebo As you can see we have added the lights to sell at Costco Miser I think it's like a 48-foot section or something We added rain gutters here. So all seamless with a downspout Here on the side exiting of course the home In the last video I did you notice we added these Nice outdoor patio furniture, which was more than the gazebo and then many of you have asked about these up here Hopefully you can see it. These are 12-foot bally blinds Of course custom order. This is not your normal blind system that you can buy Unfortunately these two were Gosh, I think I got them on sale for about $1200 But they are amazing. So I waited intentionally to do this video in the afternoon since we're facing west and the sun's coming in and These things just really really help on You know being able to enjoy the outdoors So since we're here I'm gonna go here is kind of our electrical. I'll do it real quick But this is for the fan and then lights lights Right now they're not actually on And what we did is me and my buddy who's real handy ended up starting here When you do this definitely you need a real deep drill bit like a 12-inch drill bit and you have to go to the right Angle so make sure you have someone that knows electrical or you know the structure here to know what they're doing and then we ran it up along this ridge Use you know the screws with wire tie the holders down to the ceiling fan And then I do a lot of yard work out here And use since we have all solar now I Use a lot of electrical devices instead of gas. So we came down that beam and then ran an outdoor plug here You know we always recommend using the waterproof cover And other than that here we are going to show you hopefully this comes out See if I can get a decent angle here So let me move out to the sun for What I use for the stain Do recommend that you stain these Pretty much right after you get it they say three months from Yardistry but I think that's Probably a little little soon Hopefully you can get a visual on that to zoom in and Then this one's the wood speed if I think semi-transparent if you look down there the semi-transparent The artistry recommends Transparent so that you can keep the grain of the wood But you know you can still see all the grain in here with the semi-transparent Now the color let me get back into the sun here The color is a little darker, you know, I kind of wanted to match it with You know the existing the home and then the rain gutter there and we intentionally did a little different color rain gutter Just because it matches a gazebo so well And so the last part of this video will be I did Stainless two years ago and you'll notice there's a little bit of Actual Staining that needs to be done again there up on this top ridge Now this ridge faces directly west. So it's gonna get a lot of sun And this ridge faces faces north which looks perfect because it's essentially in San Diego. We never get sun You know to the north. I mean facing The east side has a little bit quite a bit actually So wow that might be a tiny bit of term right there just notice on it Might have to tent this thing So that has a little bit of Looks like discoloration That's this probably a 10 minute touch up job. I will not do the whole structure because everything else looks perfect And then on the south side I did a double coat on this when I did it and It's holding up really well because that's where we get pretty much all the sun So I double coated this on purpose No one can ever tell and there that's the only spot I can see that really has anything That needs to be touched up. So maybe a spot here People ask how many anchors do you use? Let's get into a clearer picture I'm in San Diego. I decided to just go with one anchor on each foot and What I did personally is I took Outdoor caulking so I got the three-am stuff through you know, it's like ten ten bucks Bottle a tube and these were done two Two years ago and they still look perfect. There's no cracks when it rains You know no water gets in there Fortunately, this is the lower side sloping so I put a You know, I even painted the same color. I know it's anal this little block down here So no water gets in here The water wouldn't get in here anyway because this has a little probably 16-inch lip So it keeps the foot off of the the ground To keep water from you know going up the picture So here we ran A cable into the wall and right into the foot up and Eventually we'll make that all up to code But for now that's the four-year update Yardistry gazebo. I still think it's a it's a now I give it a nine out of ten I just love this thing and if you're thinking about getting one it is definitely a great value I don't care if it costs $2,500 with inflation or supply chain issues that still worth it anyway Enjoy thanks again for watching like and subscribe if you like
