Outdoors > Garden > How to Construct a Potting Bench

Learn how to build an attractive potting bench with shelves and a recess to collect clippings and debris.

Position and clamp the first slat in position on the main work surface of the bench, allowing it to overhang the front edge by about 1/4 inch. The slats will also overhang the sides. Pre-drill and fasten the slats with screws, and then install the remainder working from front to back. Remember to allow gaps between the slats.
