This is the frame completed and a pretty good view of the post bases I used to float the deck on 3/4 PT plywood.

I didn't take the camera the day I put the rails on as it rained on me just as I finished. Maybe I'll get back there this year and visit them and see how the ramp is working out.

The little black strips are 3M friction tape for safety and added traction when pushing a wheel chair

This is a very simple floating design, that sits on PT plywood feet so it doesn't sink into the ground and can be dis-assembled easily and removed later. Les was ambitious enough to do the staining and then we added 3M friction strips for extra traction.
