How to do this project
1

Cut sleepers to length
2

Screw bottom level together using brackets
3

Add second layer, offsetting joints, and screw together using brackets. Attach to bottom level.
4

Add top layer, again offsetting joints and using brackets to secure in place.
5

Either infill with gravel or soil, or as I did, install a false bottom using exterior grade ply. I framed the inside out with 35 x 60 battening then screwed the ply down.
6

Plant as required or as I have done, place plant pots on top.
7
The top sleeper is wide enough and is securely attached, enabling it to be sat on with complete confidence.
