So I built this mahoganny deck, and the Misses decides on Italian-style,
wrought-iron chairs and table, like she's sipping vino rose in the piazza. Now I'm pondering how best to protect the deck's wood surface from movements of those metal deck chairs? Rubber feet? Cork on the feet? Is there a product which will glue on / wrap around chair legs that works well? Thanks in advance, Guido |

'So I built this mahoganny deck, and the Misses decides on

Works great for moving stuff when cleaning. Do not know about outdoors, These are peel and stick. Maybe the manufacture has something that can be installed on the feet. |

So I built this mahoganny deck, and ... Uuuhhhh? Really, what am I missing here?! lol Is this mahogany deck totally under roof? (I guess that would make it a "floor" so uhhh, nevemind that question). Does it ever rain in your world, does it ever snow??? Are you *waxing* the thing??? I'll bet that's a riot for the people with wet feet walking on it, huh? You realize that *birds* will fly over it, right? That some slob of a relative or friend might grind out a cigar butt on it someday, or you might bounce a big, *greasy* steak off of the grill one of these days and, what, are you going to stand there and *cry* as you get a (gasp)stain on that furniture-quality deck?? I'm sorry, yes, I'm a smartass by nature, but I'm being dead serious. I dunno. I just don't see it. *Mahogany*. ?! -- Ha'i D-suhlami filling in for I-zheet M'drurz (He's out front raising the gas prices again. Wooohooo!) |

Get aluminum.... wrought iron rusts. Won't solve your scratch problem but
why buy a second problem. "Guido" wrote in message ...

Tell your wife to knit "slippers" for the chair feet.
