What a great strawberry planter you have Loganberry Hut
My raised bed strawberry planter is planted now.
Been meaning to upload pics of my pallet project compost bin
Here is on for you Edd thanks for idea
started as a pallet
with wider gaps
sawed up the size I wanted
added small bits of wood down the sides so that each part would stay together, made a frame and put into a box
used all the off cuts of wood from making this and from other pallet projects to fill the sides in - trying to make the bee hive look, nailed it together
Screwed all the box together with a bit of help with holding, made an extra rim to help the lid sit on something
started to make the roof of the box - only one piece of pallet wood was big enough for the triangle ends, so hard to saw with a hand saw trying to get the right size and along the lines - I had drawn on. cut side bits of wood to join the triangles together
Cut up bit of left over fence planks for the roof
Here is the inside lined with compost bags cut up (black side) and nailed into place
Here it is in place and painted maple leaf green Cuprinol garden shades and the lid painted in stay new paint to keep clear paint to keep it looking like wood
The compost area made from pallets is coming along, not quite finished yet though, as I didn't have any compost to put in it, it slipped down the list of things to do.
These modular planters and benches were made from pallets, just finished one have yet to plant it up. They can be arranged in a number of ways almost infinitely. Each planter holds approx 40L of compost.
