What the name of the saw you used

[@anthonycassata5152]

So I’m assuming the cedar you used is pressure treated?

Thank you for an entertaining 4 minutes in my day! I came across this video because I have a 3m x 3m vegetable bed in my back garden and wanted to just build a low border structure to prevent soil overspill onto paths and lawn. Besides the very helpful, clear, straightforward building demo, I loved the surroundings and context of your video! I lived in the southern US (GA, TN and NC) for 16 years in the 1990s and 2000s, and it was heartwarming to be reminded of the typical southern back yards (of course, we call them gardens here in the UK, which in the States means a vegetable bed ...), dogs and cats wandering around, neighbour's dog barking, chain link fences, southern accents and no-nonsense way of going about things. My favourite part of the video was at 2:55, when you said, "We wanted to make it real fancy ..." I can't exactly place the accents, so I won't risk a guess, but maybe you can tell me which state you are in?

I made some beds out of this material and the fence boards only lasted 3-4 years.

[@kevindibella6312]

Great video! I’m curious how the fence pickets held up to the weight of the soil and water since you built them?

[@blondienewton4669]

Where did you buy your supplies at? I need to make some garden beds this year.

[@perkyplantparent]

Sorry for the late reply and thank you so much for watching 😊 We bought our materials at Lowe's

[@goodnewsroasters714]

Fence boards are they treated with toxic chemicals that will leach into your food?

[@helensarkisian7491]

The $40 - was that for one bed or all of them? Was it for the wood only?

[@perkyplantparent]

It is only for 1 garden bed. Thanks for watching!😊

[@ryang5842]

Yes, wood and screws.

Nice, thanks for sharing

[@bridgetplunkett7630]

I wish I knew what a furring was

[@anthonycassata5152]

They are mostly likely talking about fitting strips. When you buy these, they can be purchased as single individual pieces or as a bundle, I think in 6 or 9 pieces. However, look at the pieces when you purchase them to make sure they are as straight as possible. Just as buying any wood, 2x4’s etc, you want them as straight as possible. You will see how these look. I have used furring strips for different projects.

[@anthonycassata5152]

Also the other fittings that they used is more commonly known as 2x2’s.

[@bridgetplunkett7630]

Thanks for that. Never heard that word here in Ireland.

[@jsil231]

How many cedar boards did you buy to make this

[@rebeccalaker3009]

[@steveelkins52]

Why raised beds?

[@crism7684]

Will be rotted within 3-4 years, I suspect.
