可否用普通木 DIY 為戶外木 ?

實際係咪得唔知道，不過我覺得可以值得試下，因為...戶外木實在太貴了。

但注意的是....戶外木除了有一層防曬油外，亦有防潮油的，所以建議你要油防潮油，而且要油多幾層。話晒...戶外木都係放在外露的地方日曬雨淋，好易有蟲的。

另外....戶外木是上下兩層，而且疏離的。上下兩層是好似十字格仔咁，下層橫的，上層就是直的。疏離是用來讓雨水通過戶外木而流入排水口的，所以千萬不要做到密麻麻好似室內的地板那樣。

最後，假若你真的嘗試去做，希望你成功啦！

聰明，但要注意防晒油挺貴，不如買玻璃膠來油重好過，既防哂又防水，但施工前应將卡板的釘及突出物去除再油，又应将所需要卡板先試鋪一次試位後鐵定 OK先油末遲，油好哂要待乾透两日後先執好天台防水再鋪以免番做。

戶外木是選用優質木材,木質堅硬,再加防蟲處理,表面塗以
耐濕,耐曬的漆油而製成,且接駁處全無金屬,無生鏽之虞.
卡板是以最劣質木材製造,不耐日曬雨淋,並無做防蟲處理,
易為蟲蛀,尤以白蟻為甚,一旦為白蟻侵蝕,後果不堪設想.可
能得不償失,卡板的面是以釘固定在底部的三條木枋上,釘
子不久便會生鏽,板面又沒防滑坑紋,很易跣低受傷.

sure u can try it ~ just put enough coating because out-dooor and on floor !
You can try the Varnish(凡立水)round $150/gal. ( forgot the roughly selling price , u better check it at warehouse ) , this one more easy and fast !
If u wanna save more $ , try the木膠粉(Cascamite one shot adhesive -compounded dry powder urea formaldehyde ) this one really cheaper , round $20~25/KG ~ the well-known one is Borden(牛頭牌) , just mixing it with water ( better to use the warmed , just left it for awhile then put it on the wood ) but the warehouse selling the *flyingHorse* only ~ ^^ , but 木膠粉 has urea , it will rust the iron or metal , such as nail or screw , actually , i think u will use the stainless screw for out-door , right ?

卡板 usually finished with insects-end , coz the custom/health regulation !
