12" on center is much more solid. Composite deck will bend and make noises as you walk across.

I make the job last a bit longer use the same waterproof tape used on the support beams and put it on the 2x8 deck supports as well.

What dimension should my support beams be? Time or space?

I had hoped as a mechanic I could knock this out since I work with my hands. Scares the shit out of me to be honest

It's not about building a deck, it's about what Dad can hide under it.

I like the deck anchors to connect the posts for railings, but I can't find these anywhere...

I'm not even sure why I'm watching this. I guess I miss Monica Mangin's webisodes.
