After 25+ years of shoveling my deck by either forcing the snow through
the railings or lifting it over, I finally decided that I was getting too
old for that. The deck is 6' feet above the yard and the only opening in
the railing goes to a small landing at the top of the stairs. There was no
way to easily shovel the snow from the deck - until now.

First, the description, then a picture which will help this all make sense.

The posts for the railing are built in a sideways "H" configuration when
viewed from the top. The railings slip into the "H" and are secured with
nails though the face of the posts. The posts are then capped with a
square cut from a 2x8 and nailed onto the top.

I removed the nails that secured a railing section into the posts, as
well as the nails from one side of 2 caps. This allows me to raise the
section of railing enough to shovel underneath it. The railings fit fairly
tightly between the posts, so I can't raise either end to their final
height in a single lift. To solve this, I built "stepped" supports,
allowing me to raise the railing incrementally until it is at its final
height.

Although this section of railing is now a bit shaky, I haven't made the
deck any less safe since the railing section can't go anywhere except up.
In the spring, I'll secure the section with a few screws just to tighten
it up until next winter.

I've used the system twice this year and I'm quite happy with the results.

My wife says, in part because of knee replacement, that she is not
shoveling the deck this year.

Great by me as last year her hacking ice off it requires me to re-stain
it this spring.

In the winter, the deck is for the birds. Let them shovel it.

I had a 4 season sun room built on top of deck laying down laminated
foam core floor. BBQ is done in the patio with screen and wind blocker
heavy curtains.
This patio has all metal posts, roof one in the back yard, one in the
front yard. Birds hang around under the ever green shrubbery and I feed
them filling the feeder always. Pheasants often come from the park and
feed themselves on spilled seeds from the feeder. Last night I saw 3
deer in the yard.

who shovelled snow off the back deck !

Our long-gone dog - a real good dog in most respects -
- would use the snow-covered deck as his toilet -
- but if the deck was shovelled-off - he would always
go down into the small dog run ... ie on the ground -
... even if there was snow-up-to-his-balls in the dog run.
he was a tall dog he wouldn't go on the shovelled deck.
My neighbours dog - a large breed - won't go in the deep snow -
- needs to be walked to a clear area - go figure.

Run hot water pipes under it. I ran heating pipes to my garage to warm the parrot room up, then noticed no frost or snow ever stayed on the bit above the pipes. You won't get ice to slip on either. You could use salt but it spoils the flavour of any food you drop during a barbecue.

I grill whenever the spirit (or my stomach) moves me. On rainy days, I
move the grill so that I can reach it just by opening the sliding door.
Once it's moved, I don't have to go outside anymore.

Here's one of my favorite things to grill. It's a lot of work, but well
worth it.

If I do pizza in the winter, it's with the grill by the door and a
folding table inside by my side. It takes too much work and time to
do them outside when it's cold. I've not done it in the winter too
often, but for a special occasion, I have.

Dammit...now I'm thinking about good they'd taste during the football
games tomorrow.

SWMBO doesn't eat red meat, so I make and freeze hamburger patties and
sausage patties for myself. A quick defrost in the microwave then onto
the grill. I've always got a quick and easy meal available.

When she asks, I'll grind some chicken cutlets then she'll add whatever
spices she wants and I'll make/freeze a bunch of chicken patties for her.

What can I say, I like to grill. ;-)

I was at a 4th of July celebration. The small town has a community
center and there is a huge deck on the front. They have a band play on
that deck, so they need to remove part of the railing. I like what they
did. Each section of railing (about 10') sits into metal brackets on
both ends, and they just lift it out of those brackets. They have a lag
bolt with wing nuts on the top rail on both ends so no one accidentally
lifts it out of the brackets. Once it's removed, all that remains is a
4x4 post every 10'.

I've considered doing that on my porch, because I too have to toss it
over, or push between the rails. Our last snowstorm left snow as high as
my doorknob (3 to 4 ft). Come Spring, I plan to make the rear rail
removable the same way. In my case, thats only a 5 1/2' section. My
porch is only 5 1/2' X 8 ft, but when the snow is that deep, it's a pain
to remove it. If I dont toss it over, it has to go down the steps and
then I have to shovel it twice.

Dogma, my 6 lb toe biter was freaked out by the rare snowfall accumulation that was higher than he was tall. I made him mad when I tossed him out into the yard and he went POOF! as he disappeared into the snow. I had to go rescue him. The last winter I spent at home, the lowest temp was 4 degrees F and I kept the critter off the floor as much as possible because the temperature of the hardwood floors in the old house was a lot lower than that in my lap. ^_^

Although this section of railing is now a bit shaky, I haven't made the
deck any less safe since the railing section can't go anywhere except up.
In the spring, I'll secure the section with a few screws just to tighten
it up until next winter.

I've used the system twice this year and I'm quite happy with the results.

My wife says, in part because of knee replacement, that she is not
shoveling the deck this year.

Great by me as last year her hacking ice off it requires me to re-stain
it this spring.

In the winter, the deck is for the birds. Let them shovel it.

Do the birds know how to grill a nice Hot Italian Sausage or maybe some Salmon on a

I do them on occasion, but only in warmer weather. I've not uncovered
the grill the past few winters. Just shovel enough off the deck yo make
a path in case of emergency or that door won't be used until spring.

If I do pizza in the winter, it's with the grill by the door and a
folding table inside by my side. It takes too much work and time to
do them outside when it's cold. I've not done it in the winter too
often, but for a special occasion, I have.

Dammit...now I'm thinking about good they'd taste during the football
games tomorrow.

SWMBO doesn't eat red meat, so I make and freeze hamburger patties and
sausage patties for myself. A quick defrost in the microwave then onto
the grill. I've always got a quick and easy meal available.

When she asks, I'll grind some chicken cutlets then she'll add whatever
spices she wants and I'll make/freeze a bunch of chicken patties for her.

What can I say, I like to grill. ;-)

Me and the guys had a customer who sold bulk foods to restaurants and institutions. We'd buy a 10 lb box of frozen burger patties which were made with no filler that we kept in our freezers and a frozen patty cooked for a few minutes in a George Foreman Grill produced a wonderful fully cooked burger patty. For a cheeseburger, I'd open the grill and lay a slice of cheese on the patty until it started to melt. I could also make a great patty melt sandwich on the grill. We'd also buy frozen 10 lb boxes of different cuts of steak and boneless chicken breasts from the same supplier when we were going to have a cookout. The G.F. Grill also cooks those meats quickly. Darn it! Now I'm drooling all over my Chromebook! O_o

Actually, the submittable idea would be to use 2 hydraulic cylinders below the
deck with the piston rods extending through the deck boards directly below
the bottom rail. The railing section could be raised with the push of a button.

Do you remember the old convertibles that had a pair of hydraulic cylinders used to open and close the roof. My dad had a 1964 Pontiac convertible that had the hydraulic cylinders. I recall a DIY project in Popular Science or Popular Mechanics that used the hydraulic system from a salvage yard convertible to raise and lower a little homemade dozer blade for a garden tractor. Those 12vdc pumps and cylinders were great to use for all kinds of projects. I'm not sure what present day convertibles use to raise and lower the tops but the old hydraulic systems made such a wonderful noise when in use. ^_^

When she got to Sammy, whose father ran a local toy store, she said, "Sammy, since you're Jewish, I guess your family didn't celebrate Christmas."
Sammy replied, "Oh yes, we did. We all held hands and danced around the cash register singing, 'What A Friend We Have In Jesus.'

I grill whenever the spirit (or my stomach) moves me. On rainy days, I
move the grill so that I can reach it just by opening the sliding door.
Once it's moved, I don't have to go outside anymore.

Here's one of my favorite things to grill. It's a lot of work, but well

I might try that. I had kept my fingers crossed at the height of the
blizzard yesterday that the power would not go out as I was making a
pizza. Fortunately it didn't as I would have had to shovel through a
foot of snow to get to the grill.

well as the nails from one side of 2 caps. This allows me to raise the
section of railing enough to shovel underneath it. The railings fit fairly
tightly between the posts, so I can't raise either end to their final
height in a single lift. To solve this, I built "stepped" supports,
allowing me to raise the railing incrementally until it is at its final
height.

Although this section of railing is now a bit shaky, I haven't made the
deck any less safe since the railing section can't go anywhere except up.
In the spring, I'll secure the section with a few screws just to tighten
it up until next winter.

I've used the system twice this year and I'm quite happy with the results.

My wife says, in part because of knee replacement, that she is not
shoveling the deck this year.

Great by me as last year her hacking ice off it requires me to re-stain
it this spring.

In the winter, the deck is for the birds. Let them shovel it.

Do the birds know how to grill a nice Hot Italian Sausage or maybe some Salmon on a
cedar plank?

My deck is for grilling all year round.


I grilled steaks last week-end but don't go out in real cold weather.


I grill whenever the spirit (or my stomach) moves me. On rainy days, I
move the grill so that I can reach it just by opening the sliding door.
Once it's moved, I don't have to go outside anymore.

Here's one of my favorite things to grill. It's a lot of work, but well
worth it.

I might try that. I had kept my fingers crossed at the height of the
blizzard yesterday that the power would not go out as I was making a
pizza. Fortunately it didn't as I would have had to shovel through a
foot of snow to get to the grill.

The trick is to brown one side of the dough then flip it over. Put your toppings
on the browned side and by the time the other side is browned, the toppings
should be done.

I've also learned that smaller is easier. If the dough sticks to the grill, it's much
easier to deal with a few small pizzas as opposed to 1 big one. I've never done
anything bigger than 1/2 the grill.

It depends on whether you mean 5 pounds each or 5 pounds total.

Just under 5 pounds each:

US Size: 58A 56B 54C 52D 50E 48F 46G 44H 42I 40J 38K 36L 34M 32N 30O 28P
Cup Diameter: 20.7 cm (8 in 1/6)
Volume of 1 cup: 2,340 cc (4.9 US pt)
Weight of both breasts: 4.2 kg (9.3 lb)

Just under 5 pounds total:

US Size: 48A 46B 44C 42D 40E 38F 36G 34H 32I 30J 28K
Cup Diameter: 16.5 cm (6 in 1/2)
Volume of 1 cup: 1,180 cc (2.5 US pt)
Weight of both breasts: 2.1 kg (4.6 lb

5 pounds total sounds better. 5 pounds each would cause this: https://youtu.be/deruT-R0pT0?t=1m9s

If they're hanging as low as your waist there's something wrong.

You said you wanted to "touch them all". Or is there more than one woman present?

Two cowboys are talking over a beer, discussing various sex positions.
The first cowboy says his favorite position is "the rodeo".
The other cowboy asks what the position is, and how to do it. The first cowboy says, "You tell your wife to get on the bed on all fours and then do it doggy style. Once things start to get under way and she's really enjoying it, lean forward, grab her by her hair and whisper in her ear, 'Your sister likes this position too.' Then try to hang on for 8 seconds".
