The 10 Minute Tech Portable Patio
I knocked this little project together in about an hour today. Total cost $21 since I already had some deck screws lying around. Materials are 3 each 10ft deck planks and 2 each 2x2x10'
Got the Idea out of 10 Minute Tech. It's basically 4 panels, each about 18" x 24" In the book they link them together with "screen door hook and eye" latches. I might do that later. When I paint the deck on the house this summer I may paint these, too.
I had enough wood to make 5 panels. The 5th is made of all the "less than desirable" pieces and that will stay at home in the yard to keep the door mat up off the ground.
I guess you could make as many of these as you can haul and pave your whole campsite if you wanted to! Of course they'll work a lot better on smooth ground, which I ain't got.
