       I know this is really dumb and super simple but I got over my perpetual post #concussion tiredness and made a thing for the #garden. First time using woodworking tools since I left school #maker

       Next task: make two more, if I don’t run out of steam.

       Success! Used the junk wood that I had lying round, hence why they aren’t all the same shape. But a good way to utilise old decking timber we had lying around from when the builder fixed our deck.

       Found a very cheap way to get the corner stakes: bought a box of “kindling” from Bunnings. The pre-made stakes were six for $12. I don’t even know how many of them there are in this box, but it was $16 for way more nice narrow bits of wood. Some of them broke and were a bit hard to nail into but the majority of them worked fine!

       @SimonCHulse Much cheaper! Although, the premade stakes are probably treated to withstand outdoor and in the ground use. The kindling won’t be so won’t last as long.

       @SimonCHulse> Not hugely worriedGiven the toxicity of the chemicals used to treat wood, their absence from a vege garden is a feature not a bug.@donkey

       @strypey @SimonCHulse Very true, though the decking already has that part covered. 😉
