Veranda Ceiling Do-over
(Part 2)
I have to say installing this ceiling the second time was much easier than the first – even by myself. Since all the pieces were precut and numbered – it was kind of a “paint by numbers” job -
uh…once I worked out the logistics.
The main issues I had to overcome for this two-person job were getting the boards into position and holding them there until I could get them nailed – three hands minimum required.
No, sadly, I don’t mean “makeover” – which usually means remodelling. I mean “do-over” as in doing it all over again… 
as in twice.
Less than 48 hrs after my helpful nephew and I congratulated ourselves on the great job we did installing the beaded panel ceiling in the new veranda it looked like this.
Cause? Failure to do the research by yours truly.
Material: 5/16″ x 3 1/2″ Yukon Pine T&G beaded panelling
Finish: Water-based Varathane (1 coat – both sides)
So what went wrong? (just a few examples)
