Hi Guys, as I am doing my floor at the moment using aluminium sheet with 1" aluminium tubes as runners to support a sheet of 3 ply wood with a layer of fiberglass either side.
The sheet is close enough to about 1 yard square, or just under 1 meter square. I can also add support along the longitudinal center-line.
With all this mucking around, it maybe just easier to use a sheet of wood as the complete floor structure without all aluminium. It would be wholly supported 360 degrees, but as wood isn't one of my greater strengths, I have no idea what type or thickness would do the job so asking for suggestions please?
In case there's confusion here, I am talking about eliminating the aluminium floor and runners altogether and just having a single piece of ply (whatever wood) there.
