This adjustable garden trellis for cucumber/pea/bean vines is a quick project for the vegetable garden. The trellis gets the vines off the ground and is more productive in less space. No giant rotting cucumbers to find three weeks after the rest have matured. It is made from small lumber and twine. Paint is optional but gives a nice pop of color. Just in time for the rapid growth of summer!

Step 3: Legs

Cut 2x2s in half (4 four foot sections). Drill holes as shown.

Step 4: Slats

Cut 1x2s into three 32" sections.

I clamped the 8 slats together and ran the group across the table saw to even out the edges. The string slots were made by lowering the blade to 1/8" above the table.
