impressive work. thanks
nice job amte
Nice work mate, quick question for ya, how long did it take you to get the hole dug out and then build the frame ?
I would say the frame and digging the holes took best part of two days. And 1 day to do the decking. Really enjoyed the project.
@Deansworkshop nice one for the reply mate I am going doing a composite decking project next month so will follow your tips for the framing
I love that. Thank you I was going to do composite decking and I looks so much better. I will do it next time you will have to show me dude. Any help drop me a message
@Deansworkshop So another question is I'm wanting to do as low profile as I can as the garden slopes off to the back of where I'll be decking so am I better using 4 x 2 ? I had planned on using 6 x 2 but yours seems good and sturdy. I'm going with 4m x 2.5m as my footprint so do you think I should do the same as you and have 15 posts 5 front middle and back. Sorry so many questions I don't qanna fuck it up lol
As you seen from mine 4x2 will the right support will make it sturdy and no bounce. My opinion using 6x2 will not need as many posts and should last a lifetime. I think it comes down to budget.
One problem with using wood stands and concreting them in is they do rot over time then you cant do anything apart from dig and break out concrete, an arse job as im finding out with whoever did decking in my garden. Best to concrete and then bolt in these metal fixtures where wood can be bolted in and take out easily when needs replacing.
You can unscrew and cut away the rotting post, dig a new whole to the side and slide in a new post.
Replace them one at a time without affecting the frame work 😁
But with it being treated timber and him using the bitumen paint to seal the post it will be a few years before anything like that is needed 😊
@@jamessullivan3829 wouldnt making a new post on the side of an existing mess up the formation of the post, e.g. not equally distributed, get large iver hangs on the end joists.
@@mokodorali5975with the posts that attach to the cross supports he should get away with just placing them the other side of the joists.
As for the outer edge and corner posts, yeah it may effect the weight distribution across the edges and create some bounce but that could be sorted by adding new posts on both sides of each original.
A little extra work but with the treatment/protection and paint , by the time the posts need sorting I'm sure the top decking would need changing or repairs anyway 😁
