  The frames of my orchid benches are built from treated pines, which will have a life expectancy of 15 years. Yours is much much stronger, life time guarantee assured 🙂

  I chose metal frames for the portability and the small visual footprint of the structure. The most expensive parts are the Elgate/Downee pipe joints, which are infinitely reusable. The whole structure can be deconstructed and repurposed for another location. It is like Mecano to assemble
