Project Information
this was a quick weekend project for a friend of ours sam (samantha) that lives in an apartment but still wanted to be able to grow some fresh herbs so she asked if i would make her something compact she could put on her porch.so this was my answer. made from some rough sawn cedar ive had taking up space too long.simple butt joined boards assembled with TBIII and ss trim head screws. size is h=35" w=24" d=20",the boxes are h=6" w=6". there are drain holes covered with screen on each box. the finish is penofin rosewood oil western red cedar. the letters were cut out with rocklers sign making system. i wish the cedar was all the same color but hey it's a free project so she cant complain.

Looks good and sturdy to me Pottz. I like the design and I might even copy that that in the summer.
