So do you use pressure treated lumber? Or just water sealed 2 x 4s? Remember reading to use stainless steel staple or nails after gluing the carpet. If there is a list available that would be great. Thanks in advance!

I use pressure treated 2x4. Contact cement all sides of board to carpet and staple underside of bunk. Take a cordless drill w u to ramp and put on in 10 min

I used pressure treated wood as well. Glued and staples with stainless steel staples. Get the boards ready at home ahead of time so u just swap them at the lake. I also bought new lag bolts but Ended up using the old ones instead.
