I want to build a 10′ x 24′ deck for my house. What would be the strongest and most affordable wood for this project? Also I live in Florida so it is very humid. Thank you!

Hi, I’m looking for tips/plans/pictures of a easy wooden crayon holder/organizer for boy scouts. I’ve seen some really easy ones from scrap wood a long time ago and can’t locate the instructions anymore . No need for fancy animal shaped one.

Just some tips to help make the holes for the crayons and stuff.

Any info would help.
It’s not for the boy scouts it, a WOOD Project we would like the boys to create , decorate and either donate or sell, depending on the outcome.

I have tried for the past week to bring up jigsaw puzzles and it will not show any.

Puzzled asked:


Heres my situation: I just built a bar out of MDF board and it looks really good. I figured that I would just leave it the way it is because I know that if I paint it, I might mess it up. However, last night, I decided to put a nice cold beer on top of the MDF counter. Big mistake. Once I lifted the beer off the counter, I noticed that the water left behind started to create “bubbles.” Since I am completely new at carpentry, I was wondering how I should finish the bar. Since MDF is not “real” wood, how should I treat it?

What would be the best way to finish a wooden spoon used for cooking? I want it to be suuuper smooth/soft.

Thanks.

P.S. I think it is pine wood.

I’ve sanded it a lot and It’s smooth and I’m putting some mineral oil on it right now. Any other suggestions for really smooth wood?
