    New viewer alert 📢 came over to your channel as bought a 5in1 multitool few weeks ago but haven't tried the chainsaw yet. That's why I searched for a video on a 5in1 on a tree and your video came up! Loving the channel, keep up the good work. Shall be watching more of your videos now I have a new channel to watch 👌🤘💪

      I’m sorry to read this. I hope you find a peaceful site that you can relax in with people you can relate with and click. The potential is out of this world for Allotment sites to be fairly run (not always) keep watching as I’m going nowhere 👍

      Was just thinking the same. Took me ages and I broke several boards. Think my pallets were much older though and screws pretty rusty and often not put in straight.

    Hi mate,
    Great video Ive watched a couple of your last couple days really good work mate! I got a load of pallets last couple years well about 20 😂 (not exactly 60 in one night! Lol)
    Anyhow similar intention plus to build a large shed/small garden workshop 15/10ft ish!? But just haven't been able to last couple years just cos did my back in and garden got totally overgrown as laid up for 18months after a spine op that didn't go to plan, had no help, but gotta get it done now(with the way things are and cost of food!) Start growing some food fruit n veg couple small fruit trees in pallet planters and also get my shed/ workshop thing up as got myself a load of tools to do it(I'm a bit like you rather get tools than clothes lol) but got nowhere to put em now so house is chokka! Even back bedroom Lol 😅🤦🏻
    Anyway great video gonna knock a few of these beds out once I get the garden cleared of the massive weeds etc so I can grow and make space for the shed! (Had already sorted garden once landscaped it sort of myself patios and path and double decking-reclaimed large pallet type wood! Came out pukka!) Now it's all bloody overgrown where I got laid up so gutted tbh trying to get the motivation to tackle it but couple your videos helped to give me some inspiration for once it's cleared! Subscribed..
    Cheers mate👍😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    Good afternoon, I have been trying to find the easiest way, without so many tools to make a raised a bed, as living on a Hot island and very little rain, I am wondering about growing in a raised bed, and maybe fitting wheel casters to the bottom, that way I can wheel around my roof terrace depending on the time of year and what is growing.
    I have lots of tools screws, screwdrivers hammer, etc however am missing a saw and a powered drill which would make things much easier.
    My neighbors have thrown out quite a few pieces of wood and a long wood pallet, not the square ones, however we are in lockdown and the owners are no longer refurbishing the house until all able to move around freely.
    The wood is just dumped out the front, and I keep looking at it, wondering how long I have to wait to make my own raised beds.
    Also what would use to line a raised bed? For growing own veggies etc
    I have been growing in empty plastic water bottles in empty juice containers and cutting in half my nutrients containers.
    Ideas please
    Waiting patiently whilst on lockdown
    Have been growing own foods for 2 years not just because of this lockdown.
    Enjoyed watching and not boring.
    Thank you
    From a Hot island off the west coast of Africa

    Nice beds. You could also use angle brackets, which is what I did. It just gives the joint some extra stability. They do cost tho, so your way is more cost effective. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
