    look for the steel sheds on the free section of Craigslist. I see a few that people are getting rid of in the Denver metro area. If you are patient, you could get the materials for the price of picking them up and maybe even demoing the sheds. They tend to not last the hailstorms either, so you can look after one rolls thru.

    You've all seen my raised beds. I'll post again. I think mine have been up for five years now. The corrugated I used I got for free and had probably been sitting outside for a good 15-20 years before I grabbed them, so I had hardly any rust resistance left when I started.

    I appreciate you posting your beds again- I'd fully forgotten that you'd done this for your gardens.

    Okay, so there are different thicknesses that I also need to watch for. 36" was the height I was hoping for, too.
