I've got left over colourbond from my house build as well as my builder giving me a few extra from another house they built next door and I've figured out an easy way to make raisedgarden beds from them.
I topped them with some old garden hose to protect from the sharp edges.
This one is surprisingly stable but they could be strengthened with some timber.

I have made another raised bed today using more scrap. These were skinny useless pieces so I cut them up to use vertically again...

It took me 1 hour on my own.
I'm going to dig it down 10cm, fill it 3/4 of the way up and screw it to my pallet potting shelter for stability and easy trellising. I think it will be my dedicated climbing pea bed..
