[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 216409, member: 1944"] Use deck screws coated with industrial coating, some are even colored to match the color of your deck , so if you have a big "deck", you may want to check into those. My husband got a load of paving brick at an auction today, we figured, we would pay a grand, he got them for 160$$$, of course when I got done at work, i had to go to the auction, and we each hauled 2 thousand pounds in 2 1500 chevys, good ole trucks. I figure each one wieghed 4 pds, @ 1000 bricks. They were a squattin, but we made it home, and then had to unload them,of course....:w00t: Im thinking overload fine of 180 per truck, times two sets of springs at 200 minimum per pair, would be the same as buying them at home depot, etc., but all is well which ends well, didnt have far to go, drove slow, no cops, what a deal. !! Guess what we are doing on my day off?? AS for deck lighting, we use solar, got some bronze pillar like things, as we have no electric outside and want none. And candles and solar tree looking people on the deck. And tiki torches. Cheap, looks awesome at night, and no electrical needed. [/QUOTE]
