Finally got my arse into gear today and had a look at the deck. I went out and bought 29 metres of 32mm thick deck timber, h3 treated pine. Id love a hardwood deck but its just not going to happen, availability of wood is not ideal.

I need to let the wood dry before I put the last section in, otherwise it may all come loose as the wood dries and shrinks. A few days out in the sun should make a good difference.

I am going to use an oil stain on it before it gets assembled, natural kwila is the tint. once it is all together it will receive another coat.

And now the vertical section. I wont make up the sides just yet, that can be done later but will get done eventually.
