Love this simple yet so elegant design, super nice ! I wish I had your skill. 🙂 Frosty in Canada.
I have a new passion for building things with wood but I have never done it. Ty for explaining it so well and your free plan. I have been wanting to paint my mother’s kitchen and bedroom and didn’t know how to decorate it. You gave me a perfect idea since she LOVES her plants
From one woodworker to another, that's a nice looking planter box
I made two planters for my sister and they look great. I’m a novice wood worker and the plans and directions were spot on. I’ll continue to make these for gifts. Thank you.
By far the simplest design I've seen. Nice job!!
Fantastic build. These are just what I'm looking to build for my patio.
Thank you for the plans , one of the best woodworking channels on CZcams, what you make is amazing.
Guys like you help the novice in me create nice things. Thank you soooo much for the free plans, that’s class
The best video I have seen on planter boxes and I’ve watched a lot because I’m planning on building a few for my family and friends
I just made this planter yesterday. It turned out great with plans that were so simple to follow. I love your channel.
Love this planter box. I am a retired nurse, just starting to work with wood and I am grateful for your plan and video!
Nicely done! I've looked at a lot of planters and your design assembles quickly and looks really good. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful and thanks for the plans. I left a small space between the boards as the commenters below hinted at but I love this design and it is a very clean look. I did however use deck screws for the top trim piece and just put a counter sink on those.
Just received my free plans on the planter box. I really appreciate the simplicity of these plans and the clarity of them, great job, I plan on making some of these and selling them at my craft shows, thanks a bunch
how much do you sell them for?
Wat you sell them for $$
OMG! This is the most easy, efficient, and beautiful planter I have found on line. Your demo and the free plans have got me super excited to try my hand at making it. First time ! THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!
Always great watching your builds.
Love this build! Super simple design and construction. Greta for a beginner!
Thanks for the great demo! I just returned from Lowes with the planks to build one
I’m definitely building a few of these for springtime.
Nice, simple, clean build! I will be building a few of these with my 13 year old son, I need to teach him how to use my tools so this will be a great project to work on together. I subscribed and just requested your plans. Thank you!
You do great work! So glad I found your channel!
I just LOVE The smell of cedar! ❤
I remember you.. I got your plans for the workbench.... I just finished that build yesterday... It was epic
Nice! Seems to be a fairly simple and easy build. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much for the super clear plans…I can’t believe they are free and that all you ask is to subscribe. Subscribing to your channel is hardly payment- it’s a bonus!
Great video as usual & thanks for always providing the free plans. Love this channel!
Great little project. I modified the build from the plans a bit by beefing up the internals to essentially 2x2 skeleton and added a lid. I keep it out by the garden and it has a little tool rack inside for a small trowel, clippers, garden twine, and other tools. No more having to run back and forth from the shop or garage chasing tools. Plus with the beefier frame, old folks can sit on it for a short rest.
Thanks very much for the free plans! That is super helpful to us newbies!
Thanks! I downloaded this plan and the one for the workbench. I also sent you some $ even though they were free. It takes time to make these videos and plans. I’m just starting out making wood projects for my home. So I really appreciate the build plans because it’s hard enough as it is.
Thanks so much for the planter box kick in the pants I needed. My sister-in-law has been hinting about one of these, now I don't have an excuse not to!
I'm new to woodworking and want to make some money after having spent a fortune on new equipment for my shop. These look like they will be a great moneymaker. I subscribed to your channel, and I downloaded the plans! I'm in the middle of building a large chicken coop, but when I'm done, I am going to try my hand at these planters. Thanks for a great video and a super easy planter plan!
Great job on the build...looks great...one day I gotta try that!!!
Well done. Thank you for the free plan.
Very nice and simple. I'll try to make it as my next project.
Thank you for providing such well laid out plans. I made 2 planters and did a little modifications and they turned out great. I would like to post or share the pictures with you and see what you think. Thanks again and looking forward to the next video.
Great video content, thank you for sharing and providing the plans!
Gave you a new sub. Appreciate the free plans. Can't wait to make this for my wife on Mother's Day.
I have built similar ones, yours look great, but I always line mine with plastic sheeting and put a drain in, add wheels and it is ready. Wheels because they need to move in the winter.
Great video
Great job. You make it look so easy.
This is a beautiful planter, and a great side. I’ll also make a longer one with a tweaking of two panels. Thank you for the plans! I will say this about structural integrity and use… I’ll have to cut the center bottom just a wee bit more narrow for drainage, and I just know the first time someone grabs that top overhang to move it, it’ll come off. Dirt is heavy. Wet dirt, even more so. So I will use stainless screws, countersunk, and fill with sawdust and glue. Again, thank you so much for the plans!
I just wanted to say thanks for the free plans. It seems now, I can’t build them fast enough. I built one for our patio and my wife loves it. Our neighbor saw it and wanted one. About a week after I built hers, she wanted two more. Another for herself and one to keep her mother from taking hers. Her mothers friend saw it an…. You can figure the rest. Seems to be snowballing. Thanks again.
Cool design; I think I am going with this design; super simple
A good looking and simple project. And free plans? Thanks for great design and the effort.
Placing the measurements on your website was a big help!
Wow... !!! My best friend, It's always great. I wish you every day of your development. Have a happy day!
Make no apologies ... you can never own too many clamps!
Great job bro👍
Thanks for the free plans. Great videos.
great videos, great ideas all delivered with a relaxed easy to understand style. I am a 74 yr old engineer due to retire in March so will be swapping lathes and milling machines for saws and chisels to become an apprentice woodworker.. I am looking forward to attempting more projects and watching more of your videos.
awesome planter box. easy build thanks.
Hey thanks for free planters plans and I am subscribed ! LOVE the COLOR coded cut plans great help !!
When you narrate over the video with that music, you remind me of a Burnout game. Subscribed! Great video.
I've. Got to built this. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful Planter.
I did mine exactly like he did but I stained and poly’d them and painted the corners and top pieces black. Turned out wonderful! Thanks!
Would you mind attaching a picture of your paint job?
Really looks great!
That was very creative for being such a young guy you do pretty good I was outstanding work
Nice job. Great weekend build.
Not a joiner by any means but I made a few planters over 35 years again this has made want to make. Some more even tho I am disabled now … thanks for sharing 👍🏻✏️
I just browse your website and dude you’re amazingly talented
I built a modified version of the box where I used a plastic square bin that would hold the soil and plants and built the box around it. For the bottom, the plastic container had holes drilled for drainage and the wood planter box I placed some cut rebar to hold the box in place. I did not want the bottom of the wood box to have anything that may rot due to water drainage. I placed wood chips on top and no one knows there is a plastic box inside. This has helped me keep my wooden box looking great with no rot or any other kind of damage. I have had it for 8 years and it looks great. If anyone wants to paint their box, I suggest stain it instead of paint. It soaks in and there is very little or no peeling. Stain comes in so many colors that it looks painted. I also use cedar pickets and sand them down for a smooth finish. With the cost of lumber it helps to improvise. I have built so many that I now give them as gifts.
I did something similar except I used a roll of thick plastic along the sides to protect the wood. Mostly because I had it lying around.
I am trying to find a video that shows exactly as you described, mainly because I have to easily be able to move these boxes after filled with dirt.
Great channel and thank you for the free plans
very nice. Thanks for posting. Saint Paul MN here:)
Just downloaded the plans, thanks , I'm making some for my daughters front porch. And I score some brownie points with the Misses. 👍
Exactly why I makes these videos
Thanks for uploading this video! I downloaded the plans and love the simplicity. For my tools, I have a radial arm saw, table saw, band saw, sanders, etc. I'm doing my first one with Douglas Fir as a kind of prototype before doing the next ones with cedar.
For the box itself, I'm using finishing nails and will cover them with the outside corner pieces. The bottom supports can easily be trimmed down to fit between the 2X2's using my Radial Arm Saw.
Also, just a quick insider tip: If you have a good table saw, you can make 2X2's from free crate/binder wood. I get them from Home Depot for free (they throw them out anyway) and it works great.
With mine, I'm going to be sanding the hell out of them and figure out a good varnish.
I look forward to building more of these and trying other plans you've uploaded.
Thanks! This is exactly what I want to make for my next project 👍🏻
Thanks! I really appreciate the super thanks!!
Excellent job 👏 nicely easy
Great channel big dog. Thanks for building stuff.
Gracias por este tutorial. Soy principiante. Saludos cordiales.🇬🇹
Just came across this build and decided to subscribe to your channel. Nice build
Dude too cool; I have been looking for a cool design with less expense: thanks
I will be using this design! Good luck on your channel.
Nice planter box. I had to subscribe to support. I enjoyed the video. Thank you for the plans. I'll have to do this in a couple of days.
Awesome project.
Perfect build thanks , i may used your design and go with treated legs ,thanks
Thank you for the free plans 😉
Parabéns meu amigo excelente trabalho 👏👏👏
Great video and it seems like I can do that. I'm scrolling down and I'm impressed that you acknowledged everybody who wrote a comment to you. I love that. I'm now a new subscriber. Keep up the good work.
Welcome aboard!!
great easy to follow for a new diyer
Great video. Thanks for sharing !
Love the music, keeps it entertaining lmao real pro tip about the sawdust btw! Another pro tip is adding salt or sand to glue to keep the parts from sliding when you add clamping pressure 👍🏼
Good job man. I was looking for a nice easy box and adding a laser engraved touch to it to sell thanks
Finally, a normal person without a Festool.
Nice job thanks for the plans
Awesome build. More awesome that your plans are super easy to
Follow. Detailed very nicely sir!! You definitely got a new subscriber 😊
Dude, you rock. Such a positive, straightforward presentation. Consider me subscribed.
Welcome aboard!
I love clamps as well
Looks good brother. Thanx!
Love your videos man!
What’s great about your design is the size scalability.
The demise of these planters is the need to allow for water drainage on the bottom piece. I Use a ladder bed frame type bottom to allow rain/overwatering with hose, to drain out.
I love the design but I think I’m going to lengthen the legs and taper the corners on the bottom.
Overall great idea thank you!
I watch a lot of youtube.
I subscribe to less than 10 channels
Yours is now in that list.
For the simple reasons
- you seem very genuine
- you don't seem like you are here to get rich off every video, getting paid for your time and effort at the same time is a delicate balance imo.
- simple, quick, to the point.
Excellent channel (though my sample size is currently n=1)
I really appreciate it!! I look forward to knowing your thoughts on any future videos
Thanks for the plans. Subscribed as requested.
Welcome aboard!!
Your plans are awesome
Subscribed
You could use 23g pinless nails to tack in the corners and the top frame. Box looks great👍
nice cant wait to build one
Thanks for the plans man... Really dig your channel.
Thanks I appreciate it!
Hey there, thanks for the "how to" on your planter box! I'm going to make a couple of them this week and you've got a new subscriber 🤗
Welcome aboard!!
Awesome dude! 🙌🏼
Looks great.
Just made 3 of these and have sold 2 already. Great plans
Glad you like them!
How much are you getting from each?
@@A-Aron118 I am selling for $60.00 each I have now sold 4 of them
@@keithullrich5116 Thanks for sharing your selling price!
@@keithullrich5116 From one Keith to another, how did you get the word out? And thanks for sharing this and what you are getting for them. This is the exact post I was looking for! I am about to finish my first one. My biggest concern is how deep to place ther floor. All the way down is a lot of dirt/weight.
