Whilst we are waiting for Billy to lumber in, I'll tell ya' how I have
done it. Poor old Billy is either back in harness, or about to be
saddled up and ridden hard, I fear. ;-)
Two or three landscape timbers, depending upon the thickness and
strength and length of your walk boards, laid parallel and leveled.
Simply deck screw your walk planks across them. Back before I knew
better, I used treated lumber. I've also used rough cut 5/4 cypress,
thus the three runners for sup****t. Depending upon availabilty,
redwood should work also. Kinda like a narrow deck laying flush with
the ground. I dig in the runners so that the walkway is near to the
ground.
Isn't new treated lumber done differently now? I'm not using it any
longer so I haven't kept up.
I suppose one could also use the newfangled plastic decking for your
walkway.
HTH and that I was clear
