What holds the Newfangled Garden Bed up?
The bed only needs the two stainless steel zip ties to be assembled. Once you decide on the shape you would like, simply fill the bed with your soil—the soil will help hold the shape. No stakes, tools or tricks needed!
Does it leak?
No! The small gaps between the boards hold in the soil while providing appropriate ventilation for your soil.
How do I create some of the unique designs you have shown?
Wonderful! We are glad you are as excited as we are to create dynamic designs with the Newfangled Garden Bed! You can find instructions for some of our more popular designs on the Designs page here.
Will the straps last?
We made sure to source the very best straps for our beds. The polyester webbing rolls are made from a heavy-duty polyester material blend that provides great strength and ultimate durability.
This webbing blend features a 12,000 lbs breaking strength and provides great protection against the elements such as direct sunlight, road debris, dust, rain, ice, snow, mold, and mildew to name a few of the many reasons polyester webbing is ideal.
Will the boards fall off the straps?
The strapping is secured with 2 two inch diameter heavy duty load spreading washers per board. From Andy "I not only wanted this to last for years and years but be nearly impossible to break. Just incase you wanted to drag it behind your car to its next location!"
