This past Saturday I took down a 6' x 90' treated lumber deck that was in place for 3 years at a construction trailer mainly consisting of 4x4's 2x6's and 5/4" deck boards.

I'm wanting to build a temporary dock that may end up being in place up to 5 years or so until we decide after we've been there permenately for awhile what we want.

Not wanting to go the floating route. we don't get a lot of water fluctuation. When I build the permanent dock I will drain down.

There is a question here: Planning on going 6' wide and maybe 15' long. Has anyone ever driven 4x4's in? how much settleing over time? Put them in a 5 gallon bucket in concrete? leave them flat on the bottom? cut them to a point?Any suggestions? keep in mind its "Temporary". Lake is 10acres built in 2006. Thanks
