A Cold Frame / Seating / Table / Storage
Designed with double seed trays in mind, which measure 52x42 cm
https://www.wilko.com/en-uk/wilko-black-premium-gravel-tray-52cm/p/0099388
Modular. Each item is constructed using layers; one layer just sits
on top of a previous layer.
Not shown on the model are either :
Posts in the corners keeping things aligned
There are two kinds of lid.
a) A transparent one, when being used as a cold frame.
This may use plastic, or glass.
b) Seat sections. Each item has 2 seat sections which fit over the
transparent lid. Each section is bigger than the lid.
Rotate the sections by 90 degrees, and then then fit inside.
(or keep them elsewhere then using as a cold frame).
If we make the lid with GLASS, then cut it slightly smaller, so that
plastic angled sections can be addded around the edges to hold the glass
in place, and protect from the glass's edges.
uPVC or anodised aluminium :

Alternate Lid
=============
Instead of the glass being topmost, have the glass sit on a shelf inside the
lid. OR the shelf is a piece of uPVC/Al "U" section trim which the glass fits
into (the trim screws directly to the lid.(maybe with packing).
