Forrest Gump 9 Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 as soon as this shit blows over, I'm going to do the same I would advise you to leave about a 1-2’ space between the bed and the fence. That way you can access the plants back there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg1647545532 Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 I also built some raised garden beds, my wife's garden was sacrificed when the new garage went in last fall so I owed her something nice. No idea how I'm going to fill these with dirt and plants with everything being locked down now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl1647545492 Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 Decided to use all of the good grass/sod from the boxes and transfer it over to where our two dogs have worn down to the dirt and tree roots.. Once I was 2 boxes worth in I realized to finish it I had to "harvest" more and more digging all the non essential parts to quilt it all together to get coverage,this is close to finished. Next time just buy sod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franchi Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) I am currently remodeling my living room and figured to throw up a few pics of the various builds and projects of it on here. Dead space corner in my living room, has a 8 foot tall fern tree in the space... Said plant wanna be tree.... Had an idea Sunday and built a frame out of scraps from my woodshop... Stained the center to make it almost invisible River stone tiles leftover from another project... And completed. Clad the leading edge between the couches in bamboo boards so you can't see the frame at all. Fills the space perfectly and the wanna be tree will go right in the middle....(not adding it until I finish the floors soon which is another work in progress) Edited April 2, 2020 by Franchi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franchi Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 Another piece recently completed. It is pretty big at 4 ft wide by 2 ft tall as it was designed for a specific spot in my living room that needed a little something something to help. And I LOVE mountains.... Simple pine wood, sliced and diced into specific sizes with the tablesaw Some white paint and plywood backing.. Starting to take shape... used a different stain mix on each mountain to keep them subtly different... Finished product... Fits the space perfectly... Thanks for looking....(ignore the floor, it's a work in progress still) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimTaylor751647545500 Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) Not much needs done to the new house, but I’ve spent some time in the garage so far. There was a really odd corner shelf setup that was taking up valuable space so I removed that along with some crappy shelves on the same wall. Edited April 3, 2020 by Mitch fixed pics. it's what I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltboostin Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 dude, this is perfect, how much do you have wrapped up in this and did you use weather treated wood And also, is the membrane you using underneath permeable? Just to keep weeds out or help keep water in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
