Hi Pete i was thinking of stealing your tort table plans if you dont mind

and was wondering how high your tort table sides are? Thanks Nicky

To be honest Nicky I can't remember

I'm just off out now but will put measurements on later when I get back and have chance to measure it

The sides on my table are 12" high as I use 2" deep heavy duty seed trays filled with substrate.

I used 18mm thick red deal softwood panels to construct mine. If using plywood I personally would be aiming for 15mm minimum thickness ply especially if you are screwing it together for strength.
