flateric Posted December 7, 2010 Author Share Posted December 7, 2010 Where do you get the big seed trays from? Hi there, Got the seed trays from a place called Gardenlands, they where about £1.99 each (got to buy two more ) not sure what that would be in US Dollars.Probably not very accurate in appearance but they are very sturdy and cheap to buy.

supa troop Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Hi guys, Made a start on the fieldpack, not a lot to see at the moment but it's a start, going to attempt to bend the uprights next. Im going to watch this thread with great interest as i need to build one of these too, please let us know where you get the parts from if you dont mind that is, measurements of the frame would be great too if i may offer a bit of advice on pipe bending, im an electrician by trade and i have to bend plastic conduit regularly i can lend you a pipe bender if you need it, or altrernatively you can buy one from screw fix and the like only trouble is your stuck with a pipe bending spring after youve used it so in hindsight perhaps not the best bit of advice il ever give out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron ram Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Did you try a heat gun. Soften the tubes alittle and use some kind of brake/ templet to bend both at the same time let cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smally Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 And it begins! Remember to paint everything first buddy, then you can attach everything permanently - I learned the hard way Smally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
