Ragtag Do-It-Yourself Weekly Challenge

I've kept the rules simple and few, so everyone will feel free to dive in.

**1. Choose 3 items each from the Resources and Tools lists.** **2. Explain how you built your virtual project.** **3. Pass the challenge along to someone else so we can swap as many ideas as possible. Who knows, they just may have the solution you need to a pesky problem or a suggestion that fits your situation like a glove!** **4. Use #diyragtag so we can find your post.** http://www.animatedgif.net/barslines/colorbar_e0.gif Here's an example: >

RAGTAG RESOURCES - Pick Three

Two 2x8 Boards, 8 ft. long ~ Old Window A Dozen Bricks ~ A Large Plastic Tarp

>*** >

TOOLS - Pick Three

> >

Hammer ~ Saw ~ Drill ~ Shovel ~ Cart ~ Ax ~ Wedge Trowel ~ Staple Gun ~ Post Hole Digger

- Your choice on power or hand tools. Fasteners are freebies.****** >**PROJECT: COLD FRAME** > >Use the saw to cut the boards in half, making 4' lengths, 8" wide. Use the hammer & some nails to make a 4'x4' square box that is 8" tall. Place the box over plants to extend the growing season by protecting them from frost/freezing. Put the window on top of the box to make a mini green house out of it. Use the bricks as needed to adjust for venting and/or raising the height of the box and/or the window to accommodate plant height. Use the cart to haul your harvest to the kitchen. http://www.animatedgif.net/barslines/colorbar_e0.gif
