[QUOTE="Philip LaDue, post: 14925, member: 6"] Re: DIY mini-stage/riser/platform In the end strength and deflection (or lack thereof) really comes down to geometry and many diy'ers don't bother sitting down and planning well in advance. Another important factor is fasteners. Nails generally tower over screws in terms of shear strength. (which means they won't break as easily with impact) Screws however displace more material and tend to fit more snugly. (ever notice how prying out screws is not an easy task?) [/QUOTE]
