Re: New Table Tops
Thanks folks. Here are the final steps. Oh, those 2 cross braces are toe nailed. You can also off-set them from each other to make screwing easier. 
Marking the squares and drilling the holes. The box is 3.5' x 3.5' so there are some partial squares.
I siliconed the seams, and installed the 1" PVC "cup holders", top screws for a string grid and the commercial grade weed fabric. Now it's a matter of filling with existing Mix from some pots and making some more.

Re: New Table Tops
Sanderson, if I was younger, I would have my son-in-law build a couple of these. Your table top is amazing.

Re: New Table Tops
The treated 4x4 is 8' and rather expensive for wood so they are 2' tall. A tad short for planting, but great for tending and harvesting.
Last photos, promise. The 4" PVC and cap were left over from a prior worm tube experiment. I knew there was a reason I held on to it for 3 years! Garlic and bok choy starts.

WOWOWOWOW! Very nice! I know you have plans.....I have more plans than SFG....
Our worms would freeze solid up here......not yours though. But mine are good in the compost pile! Toasty.
