Stealing inspiration from this great looking compost bin setup. http://www.cedarstore.com/detail.aspx?ID=6275# Price is outragous though considering the cost of materials and the fact that this should not more than 20 hours for a professional carpenter to assemble at $30 an hour. No more than $700 tops.
Below are my figures to reproduce:
Below are my figures to reproduce:
- Sides 1x6 − 40 x 43” / 1720” / 143 linear ft / 8ft X18
- Guides 1x8 (1x4 finished) − 40 x 38” / 1520” / 126 linear ft (divided by two=64) / 8ft X8
- Posts - 4x4 / x8
- Sides - 1x6 − $3.60 ea = $66
- Guides - 1x8 − $6.00 ea = $48
- Posts 4x4 − $12.00 ea x 8 = $96
- Hardware and Dowels = $60
- Total = $270
Prices from local cedar mill.
I would like to find a way to make this more modular and possibly look at recycled materials rather than wood.
