The Japanese make an adjustable support to go under joists, so you don't have to throw handfuls of dirt under them or scrape some dirt out. Drop them in place and you can twist screw them up or down to make the whole thing level in a hurry.

[@Mr51Caveman]

I had a woodworking business in Alaska oh...20 + years ago. When I bought pretty much any kind of wood I would have to bring it home and spray it down with water and cover it with plastic. Leave it sit for a few days. The wood was incredibly dry. So cupping, twisting, etc was an issue. Sometimes I would have to clamp it after spraying it. It was a game I played with humidity. It was so dry up there I would have to run a 5 gallon humidifier to keep the kids from bloody noses! I also did Insurance damage claims and in most cases it was from the wood being so dry it pulled away and cracked so I advised all my clients to liberally oil their wood products. Long story short I always take the environment into account...cold versus heat. Wet versus dry.

[@DaruDhillon]

Good to hear your take. Thanks for sharing.

I would have liked to have seen how you dealt with the deck boards near the wall. Did you just have to top screw the last course of boards?? My dad built our deck similarly back in 1984 with cedar 2x4s and blind nailing instead of having that screw guide. Took a lot of skill, but that deck is still looking pretty good today. A few boards have had to be replaced, but held up well for 40 years.

Hi great video and very informative. One question, Did you slip in an extra rim joist at the end of the video by the bushes and if so, why?👍

[@DaruDhillon]

I might have I can’t be sure. If I did it was probably to allow more or less room for the trees. Or a nailing edge for the boards so they touch the tree line. Thanks!

[@fortpatches]

would there be a downside to using longer screws attaching the hangers of the first board to also attach the fascia board from the back so that there are no screwholes in the fascia?

Not that I can see. That could be a good solution. The face screw fasteners in the video are really hard to see.

I thought the fancy hidden fastener system might have the added benefit of not allowing water to pool on the deck board surfaces (where the screws are). But I suppose in wet climates water can pool just as well on the tops of the hidden screws as well huh. How do you suggest solving this problem? A bit of silicone caulk?

Hi, I haven’t but I haven’t been using it for a long time. I’m also installing on 12” o/c. That said other fastener manufacturers have come out with competing products so I think this look will be even more popular with homeowners. These screws also look good face screwed which I also do for landscaping, fencing etc.

[@joemanflyer2001]

A little dab of clear silicone on the holes that the hidden fastener screws made with the Camo system will stop any water getting in.

Trex is a good long lasting deck board. They’re usually not face screwed, so less problems with rot, tho still recommended.

[@DaruDhillon]

@@Mr51Caveman Good to hear from you in SC. Thank-you! It’s an important reminder for our American viewers who may be installing wet lumber. Or wood with a higher moisture content that shrinkage may be an issue. Install lumber according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Appreciate your advice!

Hi Daru, great video. I'm redoing my wood deck now. In your video, you had metal corner brackets inside of your outer deck frame. Which ones are those?

[@DaruDhillon]

These are galvanized corner brackets made by the same manufacturer as the joist hangers. Hangers are linked in the description box. I picked up the brackets from my local lumber store. Thanks for the question!

[@ral819]

Just asking , but since you are using joist hangers on each end , can't you get by with only a joist block in the middle of each joist ? I realize around the "rim" joists (perimeter) you need 3 or more blocks. Since it's floating. Is it because the joists are not attached to the rim Joists by screws...?

[@DaruDhillon]

You can always adjust to suit your build. I like to make sure it’s solidly built and will go the distance. There’s also a maximum distance for deck block spacing. For specific details I refer to the deck block guidelines or website. Also your local building code and span tables for your lumber 👍🏽
