Introduction: Garden Cart

This Garden Cart turned out awesome and should last for years to come!

Step 1: Gather Supplies

I used several pieces of scrap wood for this project. 2x4's, old pallets, flooring samples, etc.

Step 2: Frame It Up

I started by simply framing (without nailing or screwing) just to see the layout of the project.

Step 3: Enlist Help

My 2 sons and his girlfriend are always looking to help out on my projects. Great learning opportunity! So...I put them to work.

Step 4: Basic Frame

Basic frame was built with 4 legs, and a frame around it to secure it so it wouldn't turn into a rhombus. Then, I added casters.

Step 5: More Supports

Add more supports and shelves.

Step 6: 110 Pound Test

Step 7: Showcase

Stain it, and throw into the back of the truck. Then add soil and plants. Stand back and admire. For the final task, a plastic liner was added to prevent wood rot. A drainage system was also incorporated in the middle using cheap gutter from Home Depot.
