No Dave, see above for the mother of all drill bits! They don't make screws that big. The nails I'm using are 12". I guess I could have used rebar, but the nails are easier to drive. And galvanized.
I'm not much of a shoe-wearer...

Marshall, this is for the two box turtles that I have housed in my front yard in a 4x8 ghetto pen. It's ok- has a little pond, nice plants in the summer, but I want them to have a nicer place.
This is 20" tall above ground, with one 4x4 underground.
Day Four! I've put the trim on, and bought some supplies for the pond and the garden. Those bricks are going to hold down the pond liner, even with ground level.

Now I am working on the Strawberry Garden. CS.com member Piper has offered to send me strawberry starts for the boxies. Strawberries are the only non-animal food they have ever taken. Now they can grow their own! To kill off the sod and prevent weeds, I have layered the ground with newspaper and covered that with weed cloth.
