I've installed these type of pavers before. Actually got them used from a house demolition sale, at $.03 instead of $.30 since the price sheet was mismarked. :-) They will be too much $$ for the appl

Good ideas so far. I would like the feel and functionality of plywood, but like was said that will rot. Ideally Trex would come in 4x8 sheets. The carpet idea is good but I need a floor underneath. T

When the blocks do crumble, they do so without warning. BTDT. I believe the issue is one of load distribution, if the blocks are laid with the holes horizontal, the relatively thin part over the hol

It's not that they are likely to crumble if weight is on them, it's that if they are "jarred" they could. IE, If a car is support by a jack about an inch above them and the jack fails, they could cru
