My wife squealed with delight when she saw this! She loves it.
Squealed lol
saw a planter like this when visiting pier 39 in san francisco, and had this desire to make my own! thank you for this! xo
this is the most amazing channel ever, keep up the great work!!
You are amazing.Design school fails to teach people to have this kind of ingenuity.
this guy fucking loves his concrete
hahahahahahahhaha. fk. u killed me. but look - its one of those things. and damn easy for maintenance. Lol
yeah and he’s bad ass at it!!!
Very impressive! Thanks for posting this. If you do any more with modifications please make another video
Great video, love the beer suggestion at the end.
Pretty much brilliant. Love this!
Aweseome! I need one of those as a cooler in summer!
really cool project. Now I wish i didn't throw out those old cabinets. Just one observation: you used what seems like plain plywood (not the water resistance one) so if this project will be outdoors, in time it may expand and rot due to moisture/water. since the ply is only used to support the casters, consider a weather treated 2x4 base which will probably last forever! Again, really nice project!
Wow, loved it. I'm gonna make it. Thanks for the suggestion.
This channel is my spirit animal
This is crazy! Great idea
I can't stop watching your videos! I want to make it all...
Agustin Guiot do it!

+Stéphanie Brisebois thanks so much!
Funny yet Amazing :D good job!
I like this a lot!
jesus man stop being so awesome ... good stuff
That's amazing!!!
I like the cooler.
thank you. you are amazing.
That could work as an ice place for beers :P. Oh I just saw your that part as I finished typing lol
very nice job thanks
I would throw in a little #3 rebar.. make it last the ages
I am thinking about using this idea but making a sink instead.
Amazing!
Vou fazer um!
I made this! thanks ben!
absolutely❤❤ it thanks
Love your videos! How much does something like this end up weighing? also i love the look of the plants, is it some kind of moss?
Great video! You are really talented!
thanks so much for watching!
I love it! Can you use a release agent so that you don't have to chisel out the foam? Have you added color to the concrete?
Luv this!!!
Great ideas...
Loved. From Brasil
Wow Amazing
Genial, consegui lo que buscaba
Great job.
Open question to the forum: perhaps there is a better way to prevent the concrete from sticking to the foam and cabinet ? Wax paper ? Oil ? That way you can re-use the foam and cabinet to make another one.
very nice...thank u
answered my thoughts perfectly :)
Nice dude ! Subscribed
I m uvr fan regular watcher nice vid I was try ubr sone of products nice
very nice my friend
Could have covered the foam in saran wrap or something similar so as to preserve the foam for another use if needed
+betauserz saran wrap would do nothing
Love the look but have you tried a way to make them lighter? I have a few trees that I like to put out in the summer and bring in for the winter and they need a 24" pot.
Great video mate, just a quick question: doesn't concreate absorb water from the soil and by doing so mess up humidity of the soil? Tnx in advance
You can make a beehive like this! Checkout the price of the concrete bee-hive mould.. This is amazing
Genial!!!!!!!
Brilliant demo
Thanks!!!
Well done! do you recommend any special concrete with few additives or some that wont harm the plants or is it no issue at all? Thanks!
I tried it. Came out amazing. Removing the inner foam was super challenging though. If I were to do it again, I would cut 2x4s cut to make the inner rectangular form and begin by screwing each piece forming a rectangle and building up from there screwing each 2x4 onto the other. Otherwise it was an awesome project. Thanks Ben
+olivepressdesign share a photo with us!
So cool
could have much thinner concrete walls if you mix in some fibre glass. GFRC is a great product
nice idea
I love it! Thank you!
I so want to make this. The concrete look and functionality for harsh outdoor weather climates, makes this a GREAT idea.
thanks!
when you are making a concert planter - are you using any kind of sealer?
They really love concrete on this channel
Genius!
What kind of plant did you put inside the planter? 🌿
Taking out that foam looked strenuous
Awesome
Cool beans.. using melamine is brilliant..
awesome
if you want it to have a color try using acry color while you are still mixing the cement and the sand
so cute thanks
If I was going to make this without using premixed concrete what kind of ballast concrete mix would I need? I've got loads left over from a building project.
you should have put fibreglass mesh in there to reinforce it, regular ol concrete is rather fragile, also you can ratchet strap an orbital sander to the side to vibrate the concrete and get rid of any air bubbles.
OOOooohh I would do a better job than you. I see the keyboard cowboys are at it again.
Make DIY concrete planters for your backyard with HomeMadeModern using an old cabinet drawer! GHTV’s tip? When the concrete dries, add a few splatters of your favorite paint for a cute, personal touch.
Really nice, should have cut a light angle in the last layer of foam though, so that water runs naturally towards the drain and you don't have to lift one side of the container
Amazing!!! Congrats!
Cool
what did you put between the foam and wooden plate or is it water proof
can you build a modern computer table.
spray forms with diesel fuel to stop concrete from sticking to them.
cool
+1 for the drain :)
Outdoor pub table please 🙏
Hi there do you have any tips for polishing Concrete. I have made a Concrete stool but what it to look like polished concrete
رائع
Cuanto es el espesor del concreto? No le ponen malla de refuerzo o q tipo de concreto es para q No se rompa
nice
hey ! can you use styrofoam for the isulation boards ? x
hey, what to use to waterproof it after it is finished?
thats grat..!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try to use some vaseline or silicone oil in spray and apply it to the walls of your form :)
I have a planter that cracked over this brutal winter:( Any suggestions on repairing concrete... Thank you
use a solvent to remove the foam
what did you put before the soil?
can I used any type of concrete for this ?
show!!!
Can you build a concrete friends or friends . . . I'd like that video please
