I bought the wood needed to create the Pagoda. I choose Red Cedar for the look and durability.
For the support arches I have to double up 2x8" stock to get the approximately 4x4 inch arch.
Here I use my (new) band saw to cut the shape of the arch.
The rough cut pieces are connected with screws using pocket holes and a water proof wood glue, and than I attach a template to the top. I use a router to cut out the exact shape of the arch.
This is the arch when it is completed. Now I just have 3 more to make...
