[QUOTE="scecil, post: 245242, member: 7839"] Alright I need some help buying decking materials. I'd like some opinions of either wood, or aluminum for the frame. and I'm wondering about plywood vs. polymer vs. aluminum for the actual deck. I am a machinist and have access to just about any tool you could need. I'm shying away from using all aluminum simply because of cost. I know wood will be cheaper, but I also want it to last. If I can get 4-5 good years from properly sealed wood, I think I will go that route. I would just like some other opinions, or some "I wish I would haves..." Any help would be appreciated. I will try and get some before pictures up tomorrow. I'm ready to get going on this thing. I can brave the 30* garage weather. [/QUOTE]
