Don't do it. Cheap lumber. For your invested time to build it, use better materials and you will enjoy it way longer.

Can these be used to build a base for a simple ground level deck.

You need ground contact for that.

These seem to be made for ground contact. But yea, some bricks or gravel underneath could help, right?

I have used these for the risers in my 8 steps to the backyard. They are not really in the ground more so holding back the ground. They last about 8-10 years and by then are just dried out and rotting mostly on the exposed surfaces. Then I have to rip it all out and rebuild. But I have noticed the quality of these landscape keeps getting worse and worse every time I go thru this. The last time I treated them with preservative again myself before installing them which helped but I guess I need to treat the exposed surfaces every year which I did not do. This time I am going to try ground contact 2x4x8s.

I used these to build the base of a pottery bench, saved myself about $30 and it is still rock solid 4 years later.

It could, but the base is the last place you wanna skimp on so I'd try to save $$ elsewhere if you had to. But if you're not looking for something to last 5+ years and aren't gonna overload it then it'll do. Not every deck needs to support a hot tub, right? đŸ˜‰
