Okay Wayne ordered a new electric, wheelchair. So, by looking at the landing. As he will be coming out and in this way. he needs to be able to turn the wheelchair to get in and out. So first of all, I took down some lattice work and railing. Then cleaned out under it and around. so, I can build it out a little more. After moving everything out.
I just pulled all these lawn tools out and will put them back under the new landing. Oh. plus, he had a bunch of fishing poles up on a shelf above the landing.
You see I reused this gate again, below.
I put up 4x4x72". Using the boards that were already there. I predrilled the decking boards and lifted the 4x4 up and screwed in from the top side to hold it in place.
I ran another 4x4x72" on the side of the shed. Plus, I put legs on both sides to keep it strong. The electric wheelchair weights about 600 pounds. Then I just cut the decking boards and started screwing them in.
I didn't screw the boards in yet. I wanted to make sure everything lines up proper.
Oh, I did make one mistake. I was short one 26" board at this end. I found a 2x4 and cut sister supports and put another piece of 2x4 on top and then screw the two shorter decking on top. It all worked out beautifully. It's even strong here with the 2x4's
This lattice was right in front of you as you come out of the door. I cut the post off level with the older boards. It really is kind of neat how my Lord just helped me work smarter and just save parts that i could reuse.
Looking at this (gate) before. All I did was turning it upside down. Mounted to the 4x4's. Now it a bearer to keep the dogs from winding off.
Oh, I needed to cut the 4x4 ends off so it all lines up.
Right after I got the last board screwed in. I just cleaned up. Then put all his lawn tools and fishing poles under this new deck. Great for storage now. I asked Wayne to go get his new wheelchair and let's try it out.
He rolled it out on the landing here and it made it so much easier for him to roll around and get lined up to the ramp.
Linda came out and told me that is looks great and she is very happy that now Wayne can come out in the new with his new wheelchair and have no worries about getting in or out.
Like I told you earlier My Lord is my helper, and He made this happen.
Folks if you know me, sometimes things work out and sometimes don't.
BUT I KNOW HE WAS THE ONE THAT MADE THIS HAPPEN.
Okay what I read this morning?
Hebrews 9:11-12.
So, Christ has now become the High Priest over all the good things that have come. He has entered that great, perfect sanctuary in heaven, not made by human hands and not part of this created world. (12)
Once for all time he took blood into that Most Holy Place, but not the blood of goats and calves, He took his own blood, and with it he secured OUR SALVATION FOREVER.
Hey this is the greats news ever.
My pray is that you have a relationship with Jesus Christ Our LORD.
