    This is the $17 per 24x12 sheet.
    So spent maybe $40(?) on the frame and box.


    Is any of this salvageable?
    Should I be trying to salvage any of it?

    Or just start from scratch.

    Some of the sides don't look bad at all.

    Nixed on the replace.

    Left to dry out over three days of dry weather.
    Swept away debris.

    Sprayed with white vinegar and left to dry.

    Two coats inside and out of this should fix it right up:

    Sometimes we just have to paint it and let it not get too damp. Of course the prevention of damp is always going to be challenge when you live in a rainy area.

    Agreed!
    Had a light weight blue tarp over it. Grrr. Me being lazy. Frak!
    Will use a heavy duty silver/Green tarp once completed.

    ~20+ out of 105 screws (not stainless steel) were broken had two use vice grips to get the bottom halves out. Calculating 20 to 30% broken.

    Stailess steel screws:
    https://www.thefastenerfactory.com.a...-merbau-deck-1
    50mm (need 60 but jumps from 65 to 50) Stainless Steel (316) Grade - Perfect for marine areas
    don't know why is shows 304 in the link - I'm makng sure its 316.

    Any suggestions on what to look out for in SS? Or the Fastener Factory?
    need 105 count.
    this one is a 10g (norm for decking) 200count (~$25AU reasonable) + 10g counter sink tool ($22.50 reasonable maybe too cheap).
    Both at a reasonable price at $47.50AU total.
    Pickup is close.

    tia

    PS. Just the cleanup and dismantling time wasted on this so far.
    Living and Learning. (learning to live with it. LOL)
