I build green houses, but I also make a lot of green house furniture.
Here is a potting table, high sides, and a few tech screws in sight. Sides and back are .8mm galv sheet, base and shelf are 2mm black steel. Whole thing was primed and painted twice, black enamel.
No, I didn't make the baskets or the plastic bin.
What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Your Green House Furniture is good.I too make green house based furniture.I have a huge collection of different types of furniture which I also sold to some higher companies.

Hey, I'm pleased to hear this.
It is not big deal welding, but very interesting fabrication. It gives me a real break from normal trailer repairs, garage work, etc.
I have built whole greenhouses, shade houses, sheds, fences, potting cribs (like the table in the picture), tools, vents, doors, shelving, tools, sprinkler stands, whole systems. I also have a set of strategies for building whole gardens on difficult slopes, and these turn on steel frames and calculated loads. All of it involves steel, welding, and a lot of challenges, and I prime and paint everything.
My single biggest item, and I'm sick of them, actually, is pot trollies, for "large" pot plants that need to be moved -- for cleaning, for seasonal rotation, etc. But I could make these all day, if I wanted to. Big demand. Good return.
I have designed (drawn up) a range of tools for working in yards, (lifting and applying mulch, compost, etc,) and in gardens, and I'm working on bringing these ideas into production. But that is a long term project, slowly, slowly.
All the best with your work in this area.
