Looks cool! What type of paint and wood did you use?

used spray paint low odour and the timber is just pine, the reason why i didnt go with hardwood and spend all the extra cost and weight or stain it, is because no water will get near it the back and sides a clear perspex so any water that hits the perspex will just flow down to the soil where the plants will be planted and then out through my drainage holes into my bucket
