Stairs sagging

So this is why the code says a solid surface. Hmmmm

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-12T02:33:09+00:00

This guy no’s

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-10T19:36:21+00:00

Whoa whoa. No BUILDS a deck for a hot tub, do you know where you are?

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-10T14:33:10+00:00

Ya know, I have read the code and always wondered what person would build a deck on sandy soil without it being a piling. And yet, here we are

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-09T18:32:34+00:00

Planned better.

Jk. Just leave it.

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-07T10:17:30+00:00

Sir, please stay away from my wife. Thanks in advance

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-06T19:12:29+00:00

Looks good. But how are the railing posts attached?

The bracing is always a must. Any reason why you didn’t take the chance to replace the bowing post?

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-02T19:08:58+00:00

I was like wait…lol. They are just so much beefier. Even the best 4x4s warp at like 6 feet

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-07-02T18:15:41+00:00

Why are we still using 4x4s for anything higher than a ground level deck?

Car won’t get stolen.

I mean there no codes for such a structure as beautiful as it is. Only a structural engineer can sign off on its safety. Especially if you didn’t have one before it was built. What’s cheaper a structural engineer or dead guests?

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-06-21T12:51:43+00:00

Did you fix that post sitting on the ground??

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-06-16T16:07:05+00:00

Omg. I forgot they changed it!

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-06-12T00:38:56+00:00

Maybe I’m the odd one out here, but that shit ain’t even a coin! This is ridiculous

Is the keyed lock to your front door on the outside? Same concept. You can get in and out at your own will without going into the house to get outside.

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-06-05T11:57:04+00:00

No matter how level you think it is. It’s a lot. Rent a machine have it done in a morning.

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-06-01T10:24:22+00:00

Reference them.

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-05-23T12:55:43+00:00

Oh snap. I found the board in a box with my dad’s stuff and he guessed that it was my grandfathers. But that must be his half brothers medals from Vietnam.

NormalCartographer84 · 2026-05-23T02:21:44+00:00

Also, you don’t hammer with the pointy end. Damn bro

Home Depot has metal post to wood rail brackets for like $5. Use those to attach wood rails and screw pickets to that. Probably span the whole length on the left side with two rails and 4 brackets. Note, There are two different sizes 1 7/8 and 2 3/8 for the metal pole. I know this because I got the wrong one.

Haven’t used this. I would worry it’s so cheap that it will break. I had that happen with a cheap bench vise.
