We started this outdoor deck project with 44 skids of size 770 x 770 as a base and the garden bed surround. We laid out and leveled on to a base of gravel. I used three 3M hardwood sleepers pinned in around the edge to hold them all together.
I then split 17 normal sized pallets into boards and plinths using the boards from the top and bottom and laid them out in a diagonal pattern across the top.
Then, I covered the whole thing with aqua deck sealer and built the planter boxes out of the larger support boards from the pallets. All up, it took me (working alone) 4 weekends spread out over 3 months. The longest time was sanding all the boards as I only had a hand sander. Oh, and I cut every board with a handsaw.
I was really impressed with how it turned out and the whole thing cost me about $300.
Julio Mariano t’aurais pu mettre une photo toi aussi 😉
D’accord d’accord…
looking great this is what I want to do over our tired drabby old slabs with raised flower beds as we have dogs…
Was this your plan Alex De Paiva?
Kind of but not as elaborate as that!!
Darren Hetherington might do this for my decking for the jacuzzi
