[QUOTE="screwballl, post: 181208, member: 4837"] You can use 2x2s if you increase the number of supports and have less weight on any one or two of them, 2x3s should be fine as long as you are not much over 200 lbs., otherwise 2x4s (or even more upright 1x4s) may be the way to go. I am 6'5" and 215 lbs so I am planning to use 1x4s about 12" apart and cross beam supports for my front deck since I will also have a door for storage below. [/QUOTE]
