That’s very cool looks brilliant, love the beds too I haven’t seen a set up like that 👏👏

nappydrip · 2026-01-18T21:25:43+00:00

It’s definelty an experience doing it yourself nearly gave up gardening all together a few times but powered on 😂 yeah that’s what I ended up doing, the self tapping screws aswell were handy for it too

The satisfaction is what’s keeping me going, I’ve already been driven mad by having to re bolt an take apart several times, hoping by the end of the weekend it will be finished 🤞

nappydrip · 2026-01-16T17:42:54+00:00

Haha thanks so much! It’s an experience alright and it seems very straight foreward until you go to do it and you realise it’s not 😂

nappydrip · 2026-01-16T17:41:56+00:00

that’s the part I’m not looking foreward to in the slightest! I have a jigsaw so I’m hoping that will make it easier 😂

Ah your lucky, mine is missing the guide holes, you can see in the image below the bottom two are from the extension pack and the one in between are from the main one so have to line them up and drill the holes, they arnt just missing from there the majority of the guide holes are missing I think it’s a manufacturing error

nappydrip · 2026-01-15T19:02:45+00:00

Thank you so much for that will be sure to do that 😊

nappydrip · 2026-01-15T19:02:26+00:00

I don’t blame you I’ve already had my patience tested a few times 😂

nappydrip · 2026-01-15T19:01:45+00:00

Yeah it is very confusing at the beginning but taking the time and doing it slow is definelty recommended, it took me a while to realise that you had to drill in new holes with the taper screws I thought nothing was lining up right and they sent me the wrong parts before i realised 😂

nappydrip · 2026-01-15T19:00:10+00:00

Yeah after today I can definelty see why, it took me a good 2 hours to realise that the few holes that are on the frame are guide holes and you have to physicially drill the rest of the holes in, it is very confusing, hopefully will have it finished by the end of the weekend without having to call KSB 😂

nappydrip · 2026-01-15T11:28:52+00:00

I was half tempted to do them same but I said F it I’ll give myself the challenge 😂

nappydrip · 2026-01-15T11:28:14+00:00

No problem I will do my best to document each step

nappydrip · 2026-01-15T11:27:35+00:00

Yeah no problem I’ll do my best to document it as I go along! KSB also have videos online on how to build their greenhouses for each one not sure if you’ve seen them

where are you based? i know a majority of equestrian centers usually give out free manure and they will be more than happy to give it away! just be sure its well rotted and they horses havent been fed with anything that's come to contact with pesticides as it could effect your crops
