then while he was doing that i was finishing up the deck installation at work. to space the 2x6x10 and 12;s i used nails and put them between them to give room for weather. the boards will expand and contract in hot and cold weather respectively so you want a little wiggle room. then for the boards that were slightly warped i stuck a crowbar in the ground and leaned on it while drilling in the decking screws. after the decking was complete i ran a chalk line down the sides and trimmed off the excess with a circular saw.
