Potting Bench Plans PDF 48x24x36 Outdoor Garden Work Table with Shelf Woodworking Plan for Beginners Printable Instant Download

A potting bench built to live outdoors. Finished size 48" wide x 24" deep with the work surface at a dead-on 36" — standing height, so you are not bent over a wheelbarrow all afternoon. The top is slatted with deliberate gaps so soil and water fall straight through instead of sitting on the surface, and there is a full lower shelf for pots and bags.
