[QUOTE="Cowcatcher, post: 3369401, member: 43171"] Last week we built a porch for the end of my house. Yes it’s all smooth steel. The deck will get an outdoor rug laid on it and I’ll probably put some of that stick on grippy stuff on the stairs. The deck is a 10’ by 7’ 6” concrete form. It’s been laying out here for about 50 years I’ve been told. It came from when they built the dam southwest of Inola. I guess they were giving em to anyone who’d haul em off. It’s wayyyyyy overkill but it had no other use and I needed a lil porch. The legs are scrap pipe we had laying around. The stairs are scrap 8” cee purlin we had laying around. The railing is the only part that I’d actually paid cash for. Sooo, the materials cost about $30. Build and paint took maybe 4hrs. I’m not sure what 2 quarts of rustoleum cost cuz I didn’t buy it. This porch will last a while. Oh and there was a quick trip to urgent care for stitches involved when a cutoff wheel exploded. The fella operating it took a pretty good whack to his fingers. I hate cutoff wheels in grinders but sometimes they are the best option.
