Good or Bad idea?

[CodyWayne718]

Thought this was a good idea til I started stackin and thought about the bottom row of wood gettin wet. So should I change my plans or do you guys think the bottom row won't stay too wet with a solid bottom like this......thanks

I would say bad idea but I'm basing that vs stacking on pallets..what u are doing has got to be better than stacking on the ground

Take a spade drill and drill a bunch of holes in the floor,,,,,,that ought to do it

 

[CodyWayne718]

Thanks. It's gotta be better than the ground Guess I'll get to drillin some holes!

Better than directly on the ground, I s'pose...although I'd say stacked on a decent bed of gravel would be better. In any case, I'd say that whatever time & effort you can afford to put in providing drainage & ventilation through the platforms would be well spent. Rick

Circular saw at right depth to make a couple channels? Quicker and more air than holes.

Tell me about what I'm looking at? Is that just some pressure treated boards with exterior grade plywood on them?

 

[CodyWayne718]

Danno, yes. The fil has a bunch of them. Their pre built for something. Jus seemed like a good think to stack on. Think im gonna lay 2x4s on top an stack on those....

Well can't see your frame but was thinking to cut just thru plywood two parellel cuts maybe 1/2" apart and remove strip kinda how they cut for ridge vent. A few of those or even larger ones if it won't weaken your structure would give most air and not clog with debris.

Be fine either way, plywoods not gonna last a life time no matter what you do, unless you put a roof, run some electric for night cutting, maybe a frig' oh and ya gotta have....

 

[Danno77]

I think that last arrangement will work for ya.

Thought about gettin 4 more of them and makin a roof out of them. Put some tin on top. I know that ply wood isnt gonna last Thanks for the fast replies fellas

i have used a plywood based system before, will try to post pics later....basically the same flooring setup you have but then salvaged some scrap lumber to frame on the walls and roof....its handy because it basically holds a cord once your done
