[QUOTE="Toney100, post: 135382, member: 2934"] I dont mean to put it on top of the benches. The block would be screwed to the side of the bench flush say a 16"to20" 2by4 block. Then when u run your 2by4 on edge "like a deck joist" u will be able to screw into the side of the block everything would be flush with the benches. If your benches have more room under the 2by4 I would put another block under the supports so u are not just relying on the screws to hold the deck up. If u do do this it would then be very easy to then put 2 blocks in between your 3' span wherever and create a hatch for storage and also to air out when not in use. Another idea is eliminate the block and just use a joist hanger. Pics would help post some if u can. [/QUOTE]
