Damn it, I hate to say it but you're right!
Years ago, I built my back deck by myself on my house to save money. (Hammer & nails, no "Air" gun)
It took me over 2 -1/2 months, working weekends and every day after work for 3 hours.
It is 12' wide by 48' long. Using 4 x 4 posts sitting on 16" x16" x 2' deep cement footings.
Used metal hangar straps to attach to house, 1" x 6" x 12 ' long pressure treated decking boards.
After our daughter's wedding reception was over, we had over 60 people on the deck, it withstood all that weight!! Never a problem!
It's as sturdy today as it was when I first built It.
All during the construction of the deck, I never had aches, pains, or other problems!
Oh to be young again!
