Started putting the new decking down on the first deck yesterday morning, maybe the hottest of days we'll see this summer! We should finish today, and I'll post pics*.

The material is super light and easy to carry, cut, and work with. It's not *quite* as stiff as I'd thought, but at 16" OC it's certainly solid. I ended up doing a bit less overhang than I had with PT just to be sure.

*The heat certainly impacted our...precision. Some of the notches are a bit loose, and I'd previously decided not to picture frame in favor of simplicity, but we should be done in two days and I'll never have to deal with it again (and when I replace the railings next summer, the post covers should cover some of it!).
