[QUOTE="TwoForFlinching, post: 3390159, member: 24500"] Ground contact will serve you good for a decade or so. Pour your concrete, use brackets and treated wood. It'll last decades. Pro-Tip: Buy your treated lumber and let it sit and dry for a few weeks. Try to pick straight grain lumber. Look at the end, if it's curved, hard pass. If it contains the pith, hide it in the back of the stack so some poor schmuck doesn't end up with it. Stack it with spacers, it'll dry straight as possible, be lighter and easier to machine.
