It's a little overdue for an update, but there are "excuses" 
The "deck"s done, the frames for the hatches are done. The pilings are a bit heavier than those under the shack and docks, but that's because the "pound" rises and falls with the tide, and, there are only the six of them.
I've come to the conclusion that the only viable way to get from the dock height, down to the "pound" deck is by a vertical ladder at the end of the dock, just to the right of the sliding door.
I still have the " enclosure netting ", and the 16 "hatch covers" to build. The "pound" will probably get the same weathered color as the docks. Most of the decking on the "pound" is "recycled lumber" ( hey, it's cheaper that way , and it's amazing what washes up on the shore after a storm )

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
