This is gist. 
There are many like it, but this one is mine. 
It is my life. 
I must master it as I must master my life. 
Without me gist is useless. 
Without gist, I am useless.

Based on these plans: http://www.insideurbangreen.org/2010/06/subirrigated-raised-beds-anyone-can-make.html

my modifications:

• Mine is two 2×8′s tall. That seemed to be deep enough for tomatoes/peppers/etc.
• I used treated lumber (2nd most expensive variety at Lowe’s, IIRC) unfinished, unpainted. Treated lumber can be bad if it leeches into the potting mix, but since it doesn’t touch our mix (plastic sheeting) there’s no worry!
• I used a 2" or 3" pvc fill pipe instead of the water bottles. Grab one at Lowe’s, and it’ll be long enough for two planters.
• I snaked the drain pipe instead of cutting, having the two open ends flush against a wall. Was a bit difficult to keep flat. Enlist a helper or two, or cut.
• bring the black plastic sheeting all the way up the sides. After filling with dirt, cut it flush with the sides.
• I put black plastic on top too, tucking it into the sides. You could put mulch overtop, but I was lazy.
