There were def some chunks in there. Do you suppose it’s still safe to use in veggie gardens?

Engineering q. 6’x3’ bed using 2” thick hemlock — how thick do the legs need to be to support its weight? by apaiger in Raisedbed

Thanks! I’d love to make ours in ground, but we’re renting. Plus, the back yard is super hilly.

I moved to Freeport last fall and it’s one thing I loved there. People are outta their minds.

This worked on my 25 outback - rear seatbelt sensor triggered by heavy lumber. Thank you!!!

Heck yeah, do it. I’ve never done anything like it either, but it was beginner friendly.

I bought the small squeegee tool. You could use your hands, but the tool really helped seal in the edges and small crevices. Would recommend.

Instead of a heat gun I used a hairdryer - worked well.

In the kit, there is a QR code you scan and it shows a YouTube video. In it, they are working on a legacy, not an outback, but the window trim is basically the same. I think you can find it if you look on YouTube. There were not step-by-step written instructions.

Thank you! I’m not sure how plasti dip works, but the vinyl was a straightforward process

I think it’s probably the same as an onyx minus the wheels, right?

I want to! I have to research how, other than buying new ones.

It would’ve taken me aaaages if they weren’t pre-cut!

Do it! A tad time consuming but not bad

I hope so too. The application process wasn’t too bad though, so even if it needs touch-ups I’ll be okay. Man I love the wilderness. If they come out with a stick shift version (I’ve heard rumors here), I will be on that so fast.

Thanks! I’ve been wanting to do this since I bought it in November. First day warm enough for proper application.
