How to Build a Simple Deck
What happens here
Using a Ryobi post-hole auger, dig multiple holes in the designated locations for the deck footings. The creator faces initial difficulties due to tree roots in the ground, requiring persistence. After successfully digging the holes, yellow Sonotube concrete forms are placed into each hole, ensuring they extend above ground level.
Goal: Prepare the ground for concrete footings by digging holes and inserting forms.
Tools and materials
- Measuring Tape — Measuring the depth of the holes and height of the forms
- Ryobi Post-Hole Auger Ryobi — Digging holes for the deck footings
- Sonotube Concrete Forms — Creating cylindrical forms for the concrete footings
