Big thanks to Onduline for making this project possible. Their Tuftex PolyCarb gave me a fast, good-looking roof that lets in light but blocks UV rays: bit.ly/TuftexPolyCarb

Welcome to the official April Wilkerson KZread channel. I’m April and I’m the creator of Wilker Do’s. I'm not professional or have any training, so I just pick the project I want to tackle and figure it out step by step. On this channel you will find a variety of content like DIY home improvement, How-To’s, construction and more.

One if the factors I like about your videos, is that I do not need to be a professional carpenter to understand what you are doing. Plus you provide videos on projects that the typical home owner wants and can do themselves. I have been following your for years, thank you for all the content.

Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate your support and thanks for staying along for the ride. :)
I love it, beautiful colors with the black octagon and cedar absolutely gorgeous!
I like the triangle shape of your Pergola. It’s nice to see something different than just a large rectangle one. Plus, I like the small size. Which is small enough for any size yard, but large enough to make any yard more fun and comfortable. Over all I think this project is a “Big” Win April! 😃😊😉

Thanks! Yes, I think so too. People can make it overall bigger if they want but many today have smaller backyards so would be perfect for many. Thanks for watching.
Nice. Just closed on a house and was trying to figure out how to put a pergola ina pizza slice shape back yard. This is perfect

Looks really impressive and stylish. But as about rain - the key word here, I think, light. If it's a middle rain or rain + wind = angle, then this roof couldn't protect the inner space. Is it possible to make the roof somehow larger, so it can hide people from rain and also from the angular sun rays?
April, that is an awesome design and build 👌

Bonjour, c'est beau ce que vous faites 😊
I love it! You make it look so easy! How do things those plastic panels would work for a basement ceiling? I was thinking of cutting them into smaller pieces. Maybe 2x4? They would be pretty easy to remove if I needed to make any wiring or plumbing changes. We have a low basement ceiling to begin with so a drop ceiling is out.
Love it!🩷

Nice design. This would be perfect for the corner of a smaller back yard. The only tough part is keeping that nice fresh cedar color.

If you prefer the cedar color, you can always put a finish on it, re-applying in a few years. It's not hard and not that often. Thanks for watching.
Thats fantastic and has given me some ideas. How do you cut the plastic sheeting?

Weird cartoon-style hammock, real hammocks one lies 90° to the fixing points, and no wooden stretchers - check out the Mexican craft hand knotted ones! Lovely build!
Exactly what I need for my BBQ grill area!

I think you are built one facing the opposite direction. That way, you can put your hammock across from it. And then you'll have one for your hammock and 1 for your chair.
Love the design. Hope you have time to enjoy it. Where did you get the chairs and table or did you make them?
You could use the cut out for a few quick projects Candel Holder Papper Towel Holder Cut the same shape to the inside and put a merra on it . The are never any scrapes you can always think of something to do with them. TAKE CARE
Looks great, but I have one question. As busy as you are, when will you have time to enjoy it. 😊😊😊
Awesome project! I have a deck where we want to add something similar. 2 questions. Did you add extra blocking underneath where you knew you'd be installing the posts or is it ok for some of the screws to only hit the decking? 2nd, I'm new to outdoor projects, is MDF ok outside once it has been painted or is that something you know you'll have to swap out in a few years? Thanks for the help!
Beautiful!!!! I have a request, we have a Amazon Parrot and I was thinking of making a simple wood stand for her, I'm sure you would have a cool idea. We are staying next to your shop, we would love to stop by say hi and introduce our parrot =)
Great build! Something I can fit in my backyard. Curious how well the top holds up to Texas Sized hail long term. Thanks for the video - love your channel still after many years.

Thanks! Yes, I think many will think the size is perfect. I've used this on several other projects and we've had hail storms over the years and so far, never a problem. Thanks for watching.
That’s really super
How do you plumb the posts? Or does your drilling of the post hole have to be dead accurate?
What did you drill into to attached the base of the posts to the deck, and what hardware did you use to secure them?
Very nice and very cool 😎👍👍

Actually it does have broken up shade, as pergolas do, but not 100%. Many pergolas only have beams, no cover at all to achieve the look and shade amount desired. You can make yours however you want. Thanks for watching.
