I dont think you want treated wood to dry out

Yeah hell they must be gold inside but they say stainless. Got 'em at Lowe's with 2 sets of washers and a nylon lock nut for each. What a rip but I needed them stat.

If you need stainless hardware call them and they will ship. The web site will locate your needs for nut and bolts. This is where I get my hardware usually by the box. Trust me its a fraction of the price compared to West Marine's price.

If you get nowhere with them let me know your needs.

Thanks I will definately do some advanced planning next time and order ahead...

What's a good gauge/length ss staple to use. This will decide which PNEUMATIC gun I buy from Harbor Freight :) I'm going to replace the carpet on my boat lift bunks and eventually my trailer.

Thanks in advance.
