The only thing that will help work against warping is to observe the grain of the wood, lay them against each other so that the grain is in opposite directions and nail or glue them together before mounting. Otherwise one has to live with the warping. 😉 A beam in the middle always spoils the aesthetic IMO.

The dance breaks are important... 😆 But as that damp, TREATED wood starts to dry and settle in, it's gonna curl away from those nail brads because they have no head. So you're gonna want to reinforce with 2 screws on each side of each board to keep them from lifting and peeling away from the poles.

If you seal both sides of the 1x2 material it’s a lot less likely to warp or twist as much since being sealed on both sides helps keep the moisture from getting in the wood. Problem usually worse when one side isn’t sealed, then it will warp and twist like crazy! Regardless the horizontal boards still aren’t a bad idea anyway. Give it more of a lattice look!

Pressure treated wood has a high moisture content and needs to be dried before you paint it. Also, as those dry, there is a good chance they are going to warp. You don't need to use pressure treated wood if it's not going to come in contact with the ground. Regular wood and a finish is fine.

Wow! Amazing I feel inspired. Can’t wait to try a few projects of my own. New subcriber😍

Pretty cool but since you have no support in the middle it's going to sag with time. If you want to keep that look I would suggest going and getting a length of thin steel cable, anchor to that overhead rafter and then run it down to the bottom slat while attaching it to each slat along the way. Then tension the cable to prevent warping and sagging

that won't sag. it's not long enough to worry about.

Shout out to the person who helped evenly space each piece. Nice work. The view of the woodsy area looks great.

Beautiful, I can definitely appreciate this kind of work. Might copy

Good work on the patio. Hokie on the dance. Just keep with the DIY.

Might need to run one down the center. They are going to bow.

I was expecting screen mesh for the “privacy screen” but it looks good 😊

Great Idea, I just finished setting up my privacy screen. Looks perfect, just like yours

Yes, Si Beautiful!!! I love it ❤. Good job 👍

If you want to paint it right away you need to go to a lumber yard and get KDAT pressure treated, which is Kiln Dried After Treatment and is paint ready and won't warp.

amazing how a thimble of paint will do both sides of 22 pieces of unprimed timber

I like it. Simple and clean. Thanks for sharing

It looks wonderful, nicely done! Very professional!

It looks awesome. You did a great job.

I did something very unusual with a privacy screen. My partner and I lived in a 3rd floor apartment with a balcony. Beyond our balcony was a parking lot, then a fairly dense copse of trees. We're amateur radio operators, and antennas in apartments are a problem. I had tried making what's called a "J-Pole" antenna for one of the bands I used the most out of copper tubing. Then I got a can of textured spray paint that almost exactly matched the color of the brick of the wall behind the antenna. You could not see that antenna at all from more than 5 feet away...but the downstairs neighbor would bang on his ceiling with a hammer every time I transmitted on it! Turns out the radio waves were radiating in all directions, including inside the building. They were coming across on the clock radio he had next to his bed, and he worked nights, so he slept in the daytime. Every time I transmitted, I woke him up! I didn't want to have him report me, so I gave away the J-Pole and built a different antenna. I got two matching garden privacy screens at the hardware store. They just fit on the sides of the balcony, and I zip-tied them to the railings. Then I made an antenna called a "Moxon Loop", for the frequency that was bothering the guy downstairs. I mounted it inside one of the privacy screens where it could not be seen from any angle. I tuned it up, and waited to see if the guy downstairs complained. A Moxon Loop has a nearly HEMI-spherical radiation pattern, so I set it up so the radio waves pretty much all went AWAY from the building, and almost nothing radiated TOWARDS the building. After a couple of weeks with no hammer banging on the floor below me, I declared victory! It had the side effect that we could sit on our balcony with privacy from the neighbors. They couldn't see through the wooden lattice of the screens, so win #2! The last win was to take a slingshot and fire a super-thin wire from our balcony into the trees across the parking lot, and hook it up to a tuner and a radio that can talk around the world, not just in the neighborhood. I contacted a lot of Western Europe with that antenna, and it was absolutely invisible against the sky, the wire was so thin! And because of the privacy screens, nobody could see that we had attached the wire to the balcony railing using a small wooden dowel as an insulator, tied to the railing with a piece of dental floss. We operated there for most of a year before we bought our house, and now it doesn't matter what kinds of antennas we use!

How did you slingshot the wire? Did you tie it to a bolt or washers or something on the end and launch that out there? I am a slingshot enthusiast and I love the idea of launching an antenna wire with it. Although, instead of launching into the trees, perhaps launching it up to the roof of my own building would have gotten better signal(?) perhaps. Does vertical vs. horizontal antenna make a difference in radio? I'm not sufficiently educated in this matter to know if my comment makes sense, and I want to learn. Hmm. I guess if you're on the 3rd floor it wouldn't be going that high, would it?

@@OhPervyOne Fishing sinker. For HF signals, a horizontal long wire or dipole is fine. An inverted-V dipole is even better because the ends lower than the center support affects the impedance, bringing it closer to the typical 50 ohm level. Polarization is only an issue in VHF and UHF signals. You want vertical polarization for them. But I have an HF antenna for 180-6 meters that's a vertical, and it works fine. But it had transformers built in that adjust the impedance of each band so the standing-wave ratio is acceptable. I actually need to build a new horizontal wire antenna. My old one was damaged by a truly epic wall of thunderstorms and wind a couple of months ago. It's no huge cost, I built it for only a few bucks anyway. I'll probably use better wire this time. I have a bunch of tinned copper stranded wire wrapped around a Kevlar fiber core and covered with a PVC jacket. It has an astounding tensile strength. If the balun at the house end is broken, that'll cost a bit more. I suspect one of the attachments to the balun broke off, and fixing that will put it back in service. Sorry for the technical babble, I've been building radios and antennas for going on 25 years.

@@JennyEverywhere the sinker seems like the perfect solution. Clamps on tight and flies right. That must have been fun. I'm okay with techno-bable. I learn more stuff by talking with people who know more than me. And anything I don't understand, I can look up. HAM is on my bucket-list. For emergencies, all I have is a pair of baofeng walkie-talkies. It'll have to do, for now. Thank you for interesting conversation.

That’s really nice. And you could make it so many different colors. Glossy white would be pretty. Also if you make it sturdy you can hang plants on it. It’s look gorgeous and you get a ton of planting space

I did the same thing and in the warm months i hang pothos and other viney plants in pots to the wooden bars. Makes it super pretty

You did a beautiful job. It looks wonderful..🎉🎉🎉
