Yes, it's a lot of work to build a greenhouse. I liked this video because you can see what tools were used and how she went about it. If I were to do one, I'd use polycarbonate from the big box store. I don't have the tools to build this though. I have a mitre saw but no chisel or anything to cut the wood for the windows. I could probably manage a lap joint. I'm wondering if a Dremel tool could be used for the window cut. I have a lot of scrap wood. I'd certainly stain it to deal with weather or else use linseed oil on it. I am quite enamored of this project. If we replace the back porch, I would have enough bricks to do this. My biggest problem will be creating a flat spot on the hillside.

I still think every girl needs a Bobcat. I know I could rent one. If guys love their tractors as I've seen on tons of videos and podcasts, girls should all crave big tools too. For me, it'd be a Bobcat. You could use it to plow snow in winter too. Now for my next purchase, no, not a Bobcat, but maybe some woodworking tools. It could happen. First I need to make finances work properly. Having an old house is expensive.
