Instead of all this lumber, nails, saw, buying drums then having to cut them in half, I did my raised garden with dicarted long and round patio tables with the glass missing, most people will give them away, I put each leg on an old red brick, then hit the flea markets to find cheap but sturdy old round tubs or kiddie pools, perfect size for the patio tables. I spray paint the outside of pools with earth green paint but leave the old metal tubs alone, the weight of your soil alone will hold each one in place, no need to fasten them, get creative with old iron tables, big or small.. It’s enough work just tending the garden, Have fun and watch your garden grow !!!

Awesome idea!! I’d like to use this as a horse trough, but can not see the dimensions on the picture of the frame. Can you please send me the dimensions?

Thank you,
Don

In reply to Maria Eichhorn. Look on craigslist. People resell them. Just be sure it was a food product that was transported in them.

The link for the juice barrels is missing. Can you use other barrels?
