My Display Bench

Hey Bonz,

I made my own table/bench last spring. I looked at some pics online (here and some other sites) for some ideas, and sat down and drew a rough plan with some measurements so I would know about how much wood to purchase. I went to the local Home Depot and purchased some treated lumber and some decking screws. I am by far no carpenter, but I ended up putting it together in one Saturday afternoon. I added the lattice a week later for some wind blockage.
If you don't have the tools or the know how, then you can go the way of a board on top of cinder blocks. I use both! The board on cinder blocks is a quick and easy alternative, and it's easy to move around.
Hope I was able to help.

Happy Bonsai n',

Brian
