Gardening Storage Cabinet - Turnbull
Project Status: Available
Project Overview
In addition to the listed planter box Eagle Scout Project, the teachers' lounge also requires a garden equipment cabinet to store all the tools and equipment necessary for maintaining the planter boxes. The cabinet should be designed with the following specifications:
Shelf Room: Each shelf must provide at least one and a half feet of space.
Sloped Roof: To prevent water damage and ensure durability.
Robust Shelving: The shelves must be strong enough to support heavy weights, with a minimum capacity of 45 pounds per shelf.
This garden equipment cabinet will provide organized and secure storage for all gardening tools and equipment, supporting the upkeep of the planter boxes and enhancing the functionality of the outdoor teachers' lounge area.
