[QUOTE="hunter00, post: 412522, member: 3501"] Well, I got the back casting deck framed out. I will start on the main floor, between the front and back casting desks, on Monday. I am thinking of sheeting the main area with aluminum sheeting. I am looking at ASTM B209-10 5052-H32 Aluminum Sheet from Discount Steel in Minneapolis. Here is where I could use the advise of some of you guys that have worked with aluminum a lot. The area is going to be 4 feet wide and about 82 inches long. Should I get 1/8th sheeting or can I go thinner? I plan on running the supports about 12 inches apart the width of the floor. If I get thinner aluminum sheeting, should I put in more (closer together) supports? Let me know what you think so far. [/QUOTE]
