Free 4x2 starter plan
The 4x2 Starter Plan is a one page printable PDF for the most common first raised bed size, 48 by 24 inches outside, 11 inches tall. It reaches across from either side without stepping into the soil, and its long boards fit a single 8 foot board with minimal waste.
What is on the sheet
A dimensioned top view diagram, the full cut list with every board length and the corner posts, the standard boards to buy, the hardware needed, the soil volume to fill it in cubic feet and in bags, and the six step build sequence, the same figures the configurator on the homepage returns for a 48 by 24 by 11 inch bed.
