Hi Niall,The deluxe raised bed I bought was the 6'x3' size. If I bought the poly tunnel kit in the 6' x 4' could it somehow be adjusted onsite to fit over the 6'x3' deluxe raised bed? Or can you make a bespoke one for me?

You give the height of the timber as being only 5cms, surely this isn't correct. I have my eye on the one pictured with the dark green painted timber and the timber looks to be way higher than 5cm. Please specify the height of the timber.
