Section 2.2 Material List
Some useful notes:
Use treated wood, or wood suitable for outside use.
Where only the total amounts are given, try to purchase in lengths as long as possible to minimize wastage.
When cutting the frame members, cut the longest members first, then cut the shorter pieces from the off-cuts to avoid wastage.
The total amounts do allow for a bit of wastage.
