If you're building a porch... |
|
make absolutely sure that the decking boards run from house to rail, NOT parallel to house.
That way you're rocking WITH the grain, not AGAINST it. Takes MUCH less energy. ;-)

but now that I do, maybe I will.
So, thanks :hi:

6. And if you're building a porch |
|
you'll have shade. That's why they're sometimes better than a deck.

7. Also, follow the old carpenter's adage... Measure twice, cut once. :) |
|
This also goes for cooking too, oddly enough.
