[QUOTE="Mr. Fahrenheit, post: 299639, member: 9350"] Hi folks, I dont have a whole lot of background with a lot of this stuff.. (Am a young kid, go figure..) I used to work construction (laying brick) and took multiple metals classes in school, but only one woods class. Any types of wood i should avoid for my supports? I know pine is a much softer wood than.. Oak or something along those lines. Do you guys think 2x2s will be strong enough? I am going to use 2x4 around the base of my butt seat, and the beams across in front and back of it, because i will be leaning on it a lot more than just putting pressure by sitting straight down. Maybe even more 2x4s than that.. Any input? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
