Yard Furniture

[Tyrus]

Well it might not win any awards for design, but it sure is practical around the cooker for a bit more space, hang a towel or some cooking impliments. Sturdy and strong, what I might emphasize as Paul Bunyan furniture. It's 35 x 32 and substantially wider with the carrying handles/tool holders. Plenty of space for a cutting board to trim up a brisket on your side while someone else works on the other. Has a shelf below for whatever and is conveniently accessible. The top or surface was incorporated into the frame height to make it all one surface.  The handles are for carrying this table also, one person could, but your not getting far without some injury developing. So that's it, life got easier and seeing it's made from PT lumber and treated with a waterproofing chocolate stain it'll be here for a long time. The BBQ Gods are smiling

That looks really robust @Tyrus.  If you have built it right it should outlast you!

But will it outlast the KK? I'm thinking not, but hopefully I'm wrong.

A coat of paint every 2 years Tekebo and it's sitting pretty. The KK always gets covered Toney, this is just yard furniture...my moneys on the KK

Had some time on my hands so I thought another Ark of the Covenant "planter" was needed. They're both great herb garden boxes, sides are pitched at 11 degrees, double walled and easily repaired down the road as there made to come apart easily. An unusual box to make because they require an angle of 11 degrees on the each end to hold a level plane, tricky it is unless you see the flow. It sits off the ground so those pesky woodchucks don't rob you blind and you don't have to bend your tired back so. Mackenzie you'd be glad to know I trapped the woodchuck I had in the yard  just like those French trappers of yesteryear, he's gone you might say relocated. The bird house incorporated a natural piece I noticed while splitting wood, I thought it might work well as a front. And the tool box can be for flowers or herbs, I have made them in the past, made  in various sizes for friends. Best tomatoes I've had, strong vines and it never lost a leaf or turned a color with it's leaves during the summer, perfectly sweet flavor with a constant meaty texture side to side, grown in this particular box....still producing into late September here in Massachusetts.

I've been doing raised bed gardening for decades and I love it, I get more produce than you can imagine and nothing much for weeds. There is no room for weeds once they are full with veggies. Neat bird house, too.
