Hi everyone. I have filled the bed and everything worked great. In hindsight I would recommend adding a second brace at the bottom like I used at the top. Mine worked without it, but you might want to add it just to be safe. Thanks!
-
Hint: I made by beds 4x6, which was serendipity, because an old fitted sheet fits perfectly over the bed when there's a threat of frost!
-
You were right, took a lookbehind and a little bit in my neighbors shed and found all the materials I need for the build. Gonna be a pain in the butt getting the tin off the roof but I am determined.
-
My wife saw this video, now I have more on my honey do list.
-
Just a suggestion, but when I had my roof replaced with a metal roof, the installer stacked the sheets and drilled them all at once. Saved a lot of time and made installation a lot easier. For something like this where the layout is all the same, it would work great. Nice build!
-
Just a tip and no offense meant, in Australia the best tradesmen will never use a saw on sheet metal steel as it creates an edge that always eventually rusts. Must always use a cutting tool like tin snips, metal shears of electric nibbler (Sheet metal scissors) . Many of our home roofs have been built in sheet metal steel, some have lasted for over 100 years.

Been doing this for years in Australia. Its a great way to do raised beds. I found a nice way to cover the top edge of the corrugated iron is to buy grey 20mm electrical conduit and make one cut lengthways with a multitool. Just slides straight on and gives great protection. Also cheap as chips.

you could split a swimming pool noodle along the length to put on top of the sharper edges to keep you safe, and it will also be softer to rest your arms in while working in the bed

I don't normally comment on videos, but I found your video of the smokeless fire pit and loved the content and your sense of humor. Since then, I have been going through and watching every single one of your videos from oldest to new. Hoping to finish today or tomorrow! And this video is a perfect example of your wealth of knowledge and incredible sense of humor. Keep it up!

My sister is a roofer. The roof metal sheets come in a 12 foot long, 30" wide pallet with strong stake sides about 2 feet tall. It makes a perfect frame for a raised bed. There are always cut scraps of metal left over from a job. I cut & screw those into the pallet for solid sides & BAM! I have a free raised bed in about an hour.

I built same 4x8 but 13 inches deep for $22.50 bucks! Galvalized sheets are $12 each in my area. I used landscape timber ($4.50 each) for corner and midway support. Cut the sheet midway and use 13 inches as height of the bed. For single bed, you needed 1.5 sheets and 1 landscape lumber (6 pieces of 14 inches long).

hit the wood so hard the pencil fell into a time distortion and reappeared behind his ear , I love it lol
-
HINT Keep your old garden hoses to put along the metal edges to avoid injuries. Split the hose and slid over the edge.
-
As soon as you started chopping the 4x4 you had me hooked. 🤣🤣
-
I built 2 4’x8’ just like you did in this video. I have small kid and another on way so instead of drip edge I took 3/4” pvc ran through table saw to make a cut and put over the edge of the tin drilled a hole and used zip ties to secure it. Thanks for the video it made it so easy to do!
-
I enjoy your sense of humor. My husband was a physician so had soft hands & I did all the man stuff & he helped (when I let him). When I was working with my tools, I'd kid around like you do in your videos. Brings back memories. We joked & laughed a LOT! Seems to make the work less like work.
-
Dude you are hilarious. I appreciate you coming up with a way to avoid the lumber prices. I am planning to do exactly this next weekend. Thanks man.
-
One of the greatest ideas on YouTube my friend. Now the price of corrugated metal and drip is going to sky rocket too!
-
Just finished building my raised bed; thank you so much for keeping it simple enough that I can truly say, "mission accomplished!"
-
I'm cracking up over here with the judo chops, good comic relief.
