Just to move it up and get a response ---digger

Hi Digger --
I like the result you achieved but I think you glossed over the amount of
work involved. You need a few pictures interspersed of you sitting on the
ground with bowed head; or with bandaged hand; or with sweat running down your
face.
I sent a link to your pictures to my son-in-law, maybe he'll bite. Good
idea about the tree well. I built a berm 2x4' and 1' high, 6 feet away from the
base of a maple tree and the tree was dead in 2 years. Wish I knew about tree
wells at that time.
Good luck with your project.

WOW
How long did it take you to do all that?

Also - on the raised beds you built, are they a but-joint type or?

Thanks,
LT

Thanks but the only pic would have been of me with a grin ear to ear.
Yes the tree well has worked out fine so far.----digger

Hi Laura As to how long it took me I have no way of knowing as I have
several garden rooms that I am working on. So far for the whole garden
it has been ten years and it will be done when I die. I enjoy the act of
gardening as well as the results so I am in no hurry. I use
overlapping joints and each 6x6 landscape timber is pinned by at lest
three 12 inch galv. spike ---digger

Very nice!

Indeed and a lot work. I would of chose to make those raised beds with one
or two less courses but that's just me.
