[QUOTE="CarlF, post: 111581, member: 1159"] Do not use treated lumber! The chemicals used to treat it will eat the aluminum up fast. Depends on what you are using the wood for: If building a hull, use marine grade, it has more plys, better glue, no voids andwill not check. For decks and stuff that is not really structural, a good AC plywood will do, as will non-treated pine/fir. Make sure to use good primer and marine grade enamal paint on it. [/QUOTE]
