No Experience Ever. Building a Floating Deck
In this vlog-style DIY video, Billy Malady documents his first attempt at constructing a 12‑by‑8 floating deck beneath his RV. He begins by describing the project’s purpose—creating a level platform on a rocky Texas site using heavy concrete blocks—while emphasizing his lack of prior carpentry experience. Billy outlines the initial steps: unloading lumber, cutting the 12‑foot and 8‑foot side boards (noting a 3‑inch cut needed for the 8‑foot sides), and framing the deck’s runners. He highlights the main difficulty of achieving a level surface with uneven, rocky soil and heavy blocks. Throughout, he provides a candid, upbeat narration of his progress, acknowledging incomplete squaring but expressing confidence that the deck is coming together.
