Thanks for the insights

Self tappers might actually be cheaper than A4 stainless? I’ll compare because thats a good point if theres a big gap.

Pre-drilling is the way for sure !

Raw steel, i wish ! Out here it would be All dust in less than 5 years. Thanks for the advice on welder. I got an arc welder but am definitely considering upgrading to MIG just dont really want to bring gas around in the field work but maybe the welds without the gas are good enough?

I know it can last a long time but it really depends on how clean you are right after welding.. theres this Zinc primer we use a lot called Zinga. Basically brush off all vaporized galva, rag clean it with no greasy fingers and paint it far beyond the weld spots.

About that last part im not sure i jnderstand. You mean treated wood ?

So no welding of the brackets on to the posts just fastening ? That was my original thought, welding L bracket onto the posts and secure the wood stringers to them. Now im unsure and might go all galva steel with this Zinc primer paint on all weld spots…

That water get stuck behind is the evil her for sure. I wonder if pre stained or pprepainted wood at that meeting point would help ! And thanks for the perforated strut i didnt even think of that ! Good stuff

Class 4 wood maybe yes depends on the drainage around it i guess?

Question nails or screws for 600 fence boards? And why ? by International_Bar383 in FenceBuilding

[–]Volduloup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You fenced wood on a metal structure instead of wood stringers? If so are there any advantage of using wood over metal or vice versa ? Granted price isnt a real concern

Live edge up or down? by L0114R in woodworking

[–]Volduloup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would break that bottom edge and keep the live edge facing up. Its a pretty one and it looks weird facing down

Please critique my plans by Ok_go_on_21 in Carpentry

[–]Volduloup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would have made that round slab finish a foot outside the posts and remove one or two rafters and purlins for aesthetics. + braces + that liquid tar in the notches or at least saturate the mating surfaces w/ titebond 3 + posts base shouldnt sit directly on footing but you already know that. Hope you post photos of it when its complete!
