 A
workbench for the gardener. With almost 14 square feet of work space, this
bench is full of useful features. It has loads of storage below the work
surface, and a handy shelf above. The hinged panel next to the smooth work
surface lets you scrape unused potting soil into the soil bin below. And
the wood grate on the left allows you to water your plants.
CONSTRUCTION: The Potting Bench is 77" wide x 26" deep x 47" high
(the work surface is 34" high). We built our bench of CCA treated lumber
(2x4s and 2x6s) because it lives in a moist greenhouse. The 18" x 48" work
surface is exterior grade MDF. No fancy joinery here, just butt joints and
galvanized deck screws.
