Step 1: Home Farming Bottle

Carefully cut a recycled bottle into half

Step 2: 3D Designing - Plan

Sketch a rough idea of your design

Step 3: 3D Designing

Take a box and a wedge and duplicate.

Step 4: 3D Designing

Cut a hole and then Combine them to form a wedge with a box.

Step 5: 3D Designing

Take a wedge. Convert it from solid to hole. Duplicate multiple sets. Align them into the solid wedge and group them. After grouping, the dimension should be 198x146x148 mm 

Step 6: 3D Designing

Take two boxes and five cylinders.
