I used to buy these at Lowes. I don't know why Lowes and HD only carry screws that require torx head drivers. These are great. The screws I installed 8 years ago still look good.

Rubbermaid 5E39 Extra Large Deck Box with Seat Review

Rubbermaid 5E39 Extra Large Deck Box with Seat
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I like this box. It was easy to assemble within a few minutes. There are optional accessories to divide the inside, but none are included with this box. The assembled box is large enough to fit standard-sized garden tools, such as rakes, hoes, etc.
It has been in my back yard, under my second-story porch for the two months now. I put all my lawn-care equipment (sprayers, insecticides, tools, etc.) in it. None of them has gotten wet despite a few very heavy downpours. There is a place on the handle to apply a lock if you so choose.
It is not "airtight" so I imagined insects might make their way inside, but so far that hasn't happened. Maybe because I don't keep any food in it, or maybe the platic smell is a repellant.
It is definitely sturdy enough to sit on.
You can't push this box flush with a wall because it needs about three inches of clearance behind it to allow for opening it without scrating the rear of the top.
All in all, a good purchase. Amazon's price is also perfect. I compared to my local Lowes, and Amazon's price is better - and with free shipping and no tax. Can't beat that!

I "replanked" my deck with composite decking and was thrilled to have chosen the Invisi-Fast clips. They hold planks firmly in place and set the spacing perfectly. I've never used another type of hidden deck fastener but can't imagine any other system better than Invisi-Fast.

Cepco Tool IF-A500-018 Invisi-Fast Hidden Deck Fastener 1/8-Inch Spacer Kit, 500-Piece Review

Cepco Tool IF-A500-018 Invisi-Fast Hidden Deck Fastener 1/8-Inch Spacer Kit, 500-Piece
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Pros:
1. They're hidden (duh)
2. No hole (screw or nail) at all in the top of the joist; they attach to the side of the joist. Joists, at least potentially, may last longer.
3. A breezy to replace a damaged deck board or boards. This is a big advantage over other hidden fastner systems! And, for that matter, over top fastening.
4. Relatively less expensive than most other systems. There still not cheap, but then neither are quality top screws.
5. Provides an important job for the 300 lb lard arse that can't do anything fast. He/she is perfect for standing on the boards whilst they are fastened from below.
6. Responsive customer support; a knowledable and helpful real person answers the phone.
Cons:
1. Takes more time than nailing or screwing from the top. How much more depends on how well you want or need to line up the nails/screws that will show. Could be less time if perfectly layed out nails/screws are spec'd.
2. Takes more time than some other systems--maybe less if you have to biscuit or notch.
3. If there is not space to get below the deck, screwing up from the top just isn't fun....
4. Requires two people (preferably one that is err... large).
Bottomline: It's a reasonably priced solid product. And with use, you get faster with it. A plywood track and creeper (with pillow, like auto mechanics use under cars) makes "below" the place to be. Works very well with cedar decking.

Little Giant 11016 10-16-Feet Work Plank, Aluminum Review

Little Giant 11016 10-16-Feet Work Plank, Aluminum
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I own the Little Giant 17' and the Gorilla 22' ladders. (The Gorilla, of course is a knock-off of the Little Giant and is identical in every aspect.) Although each of the ladders is capable separately of using this plank as a scaffold, I didn't like how flimsy the Little Giant was when it was set up. The Gorilla comes with a nice heavy bracket that makes it very sturdy.
I purchased this plank in hopes that it would be compatible with both ladders and give me a little more height by using each laddder as one side of the scaffolding. In this respect, it exceeded my expectations and works perfectly. It's fairly light weight and easy to use. I weigh about 220 and feel safe while I am on it.
This plank costs $289 at a local dealer. I picked it up from "Little Giant Demos" for $144. No tax. No shipping.
In my opinion, money well spent.

This is the fourth version of Solar light designs I have purchased and I must say these are the brightest.
Use: Post caps for ends of cedar fencing running along the lines of our property.
I wanted something that sat higher so that they would be seen on each side without compromising my fence design.
Pros: Bright, Well built, Top section comes off to remove battery easily if needed.
Cons: No hole on the base for a security screw. (easily drilled)
Overall a great light for the price, would buy again and again.

Suncast Deck Box Review

Suncast Deck Box
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We purchased the Suncast DB5000 Deck Box over a year ago. I'm pleased to report that it has held up to the Houston heat, humidity, and rain extremely well. This is a great box for storing all of those "miscellaneous things" that tend to clutter one's patio. Only one disappointment: we recently purchased patio furniture, and this box is not big enough to hold any of the cushions. So if you are thinking about buying this for patio cushions, be sure to measure your cushions FIRST and compare it against this box's inner dimensions. But in terms of functionality, and keeping things neat and waterproof, this box is a wonderful asset!!

Granted I have only had them for about a month, but I love these post lights. You are not going to read by the light, but in my mind they are only supposed to provide accent lighting and they do a great job of that. The only thing I cannot speak to is the length of life generally, but they are outstanding so far.
TYPICAL CONCERNS:
How Long To They Stay Lit?: I once got up at 3am and glanced out to see them still shining brightly. People will argue that they stay lit for so long because the batteries are only 1 month old, but the great thing about these posts are they provide access to change the batteries.
Do They Need Full Sun?: I have the caps on my back porch. The back of my house faces directly east (which means they only get sun till around noon) and there is alot of tree cover in my back yard. Three of the caps are out in the open while one is about 5 feet directly under a leaf covered branch overhanging my porch. The three in the open shine brightly all night no matter how cloudy the day is. The one under the branch shines brightly if it is a normal day, but if it is one of those cloudy and gloomy days it must not get any light between the branch and the clouds and it will either not light up or only lights up for an hour or so. For me this is an easy solution because I have wanted to cut the branch anyway, but if you have a HEAVILY tree covered back porch, solar lights might not be for you.
Do The Photocells Go Bad?: I cannot speak for length of life of the photo cells in general, but I can say that they have thus far withstood quite a bit of rain. I read reviews of other brand caps that said that after the first rain a couple of their caps photocells went bad. Mine have been through torrential downpours and have come through just fine. My plan is to wipe them clean with soapy water every now and then.

I can't speak to other brands of pocket screws, but I can speak to the downfalls of using non-pocket stainless screws in a pocket-hole application. Don't do it. All I had on hand was 2 1/2" stainless trim screws with a countersunk head. Instead of delaying my project and acquiring the right materials, I used the non-pocket screws with poor results. The countersunk head caused splitting in my workpiece that increased to unacceptable levels over the winter. I have since added additional pocketholes and used these screws with much better results.

Stainless steel offers maximum protection in an environment where ordinary carbon steel fasteners are prone to rust. These screws feature the same high performance design that you have come to expect from Kreg pocket-hole screws with the added benefits of 305 alloy stainless steel. Screws are suitable for most marine applications. Perfect for outdoor furniture. Handy for most outdoor projects, compatible with ACQ treated lumber, and reduces staining in acidic woods such as cedar and redwood
