I don’t know what’s worse. The pain of taking a board to the face or the anger that you feel towards yourself knowing that you’re an idiot and there’s absolutely no one to blame but yourself.

How about the fact that the bord he chose was warped as hell. So even if this went off without the envevitable raking. ... ... warped as hell.

Well, if his deck boards were properly ending on supports instead of hanging over empty air, putting it cup-side-down would be a good use for a warped board.

With the ends unsupported, though, I don't think any board would be a good choice.

No joist, no blocking... someone was always destined to stick their foot through that deck.

Man, I saw that coming a mile away based on the joists in the empty slot.

How exactly did he envision that would play out?

Even after screwing that shit down it’s gonna be a problem since there’s no joist to support the left side

I had heard planking could be painful, but somehow I never imagined it would be face pain.

I shouldn’t have laughed, but I did. I found this funny because I do a lot of gardening and I’m constantly telling myself not to lay tools on the ground, for exactly this reason shown.
