Very cool ! I remember snooping in the plank section last year and coming across a few gents doing what your doing right now and creating your own craft by cutting out your own pieces... Can't wait to see a vid from the master.

Can't wait to see you completed deck project. Did you say it was a composite deck ? I helped my dad in Cali when I was there build a few big composite decks and there pretty cool ! The brand popular down there is the "Trex" brand decking... Trex...? Go figure eh ?! That stuff is heavy stuff ! One long board feels like its made out of concrete... I remember in the early morning winter hours it was a pain to screw those special deck screws into the decking when it was cold, but as soon as the warm afternoon sun came out, the boards were as soft as butter (but strong) and so much easier for cutting and screwing into... Another thing that is crazy that is becoming popular is the end of copper pipes for the plumbing and using this plastic type "Pex" material...


Gotta run,
