Raised Bed Assembly Instructions
Cut wood to size
Cut the six 2x12s in half to create twelve 4 foot segments.
Cut the 2 2x6s in half to create four 4 foot pieces.
Measure your waist height. Cut the 2x4s into eight legs. if the land you are working on is not level, you can change the dimensions of the legs to allow the raised bed to be level with the ground. If you are working with uneven ground skip the part that is called "Install Sleds". You don't want to have sleds if you have uneven ground.
Below is an image of the 4x4 unit assembled but without the floor so you can see the joists.
