- 4x 1.8m Pine boards
- A Saw
- A Hammer
- A Packet of long nails
- Drill bit that was slightly smaller then the nails
My garden is 1.8mx1.2m, this meant i only need to trim 2 of the boards. I measured these two boards up and used the hand saw to cut them to size. Now it was time to start putting the frame together. I marked on all 4 board where i was going to drill holes for the nails. When i drilled, i made sure to drill at an inward angle, so that when the nails were in they would pull in, see diagram below.

Once the drilling was complete, i put the frame together, with a little help from a friend to hold the frame up.
Now we have something resembling a garden. Next step was to find something to plant in it.
