I cut a "board" today for my weather station mounting. I selected
some of that fancy and expensive plastic deck material at Home Depot.

I used a thin carbide blade and did it make a mess. Cut very nice,
but instead of curls and powder of sawdust, the curls were plastic.

An 8' x 8" would go a long way in the shop as a semi long life product.

What I determined on this 'please use this and not Cedar or Redwood'
material - that costs twice or four times as much - not much incentive..

Now how about a large deck of this material - and the stacks of saw
shavings - that won't bio-degrade and is a mess to clean up.

Nice product for long life projects - 12 to 16" support needed but
I'll use up the other 7' somewhere.

Those look solid enough, Ig. Hmm, why didn't you put rubber pads on
metal washers at the ends? Look what they're doing to the concrete
beneath them!

Feet could be made of rubber, nylon, UHMWPE, etc.

That's a good idea. I have a thick kitchen cutting board, that I cut
in pieces and use for its plastic, I could use it. Maybe today or in a
few days.
