There's plenty of content out there about raised beds and how to build them, but I find that people tend to over-complicate the carpentry and spend way too much on materials. Also, in my experience, there's little to be gained in going higher than 6" (15cm). When you combine that with the fact that all wooden boxes rot in about 10 years, then it makes even more sense to slap them together as quickly and cheaply as possible.  In this video I share the cheap and easy way that I build most of my beds.
