Top tip: I’ve found that 1” pocket hole screws work just as well for this project as 1 1/4” screws but you never get the issue of the wood splitting.
Absolutely they do work great. I didn't have enough 1" to finish the project. I have already ordered more.
🤣 man I gotta meet this “future Andy” you speak of , lol good video man thanks for so many details brother
He is a neat dude. Also known as editor Andy 🤣
@@cedarriverwoodworking lol 😂 love your channel man , good to see genuine content from a genuine guy . Skål 🫡
Great video explained very well thanks
Thank you. I appreciate the support.
Great video and project, I can't wait to try it! On the question at the end about compound miters for the top, my own preference is to not have one, and just do a regular miter, no bevel. The bevel is better for drainage of weather off that flat top profile, but since these will be sitting next to chairs in our patio, I'd rather have it flat for setting drinks, etc., on it. Also, I prefer it sticking out over the edge, for a wider surface. Since it's not fully contacting the top of the planter, whose sides are leaning out and therefore at a bevel in relation to it, I would just join the 4 pieces like a picture frame first, with pocket screws in the corners for stability and to make it all one unit, then attach that to the planter. Finally, I would crown the boards of the top frame, so that any rings seen in the end grain are pointing down like a smile, making any cupping later point up, the better to shed the rain rather than catching it. But hopefully it won't cup, if I seal it properly.... :)
I really appreciate the long message. If I increased the boards used to 4 I would absolutely do a wider frame around the top. I do like the idea of having them next to a chair and having some type of flat surface for drinks or anything like that to be sat on. When you make them, please let me know how they turn out. I really appreciate the support.
Another great video. Thanks so much. Have a very blessed day. Hilton
Thank you very much! I appreciate the support.
I like the color contrast of the 7 degree planter.
When cutting the top trim you can just roll ( not flip end for end) the piece over and it will cut the correct angle. It also minimizes the scrap left over.
I cut a small center piece to eliminate the gaps in the panels., or run the center boards horizontally although that might use a little more wood.
I appreciate the tips, I will give the compound miter a try that way. Thank you for your support.
I’ve been making Matthew Peech’s tapered planters for two seasons now and they sell great.
The 7* that is painted black is very similar to the one that he makes.
Great video, thanks!
Glad you liked it! I appreciate the support.
WWGA ,great source for some jam packed videos!
Glad you like them! I'm super excited that they reached out. I am really enjoying what they have on there.
Great video again, and clean your miter saw area
Thank you very much. I appreciate the support
This is going to be good! Thanks Andy!
Thank you! The video actually wasn't supposed to go live yet haha. I hope that you enjoyed it.
@@cedarriverwoodworking Oopsie!!!
@@cedarriverwoodworkingI did enjoy it!! Like both the 8° and 7° versions! Especially like the painted contrast with the wood
Clean your miter saw station
Great clear instructions and will be my weekend project
You'll have to let me know how it turns out. I appreciate your support.
If you cut a 5 degree angle on the top of your side panels your top trim should go on square with just normal miter not a compound miter
If that makes sense 😊
Actually yes it does! If the legs have parallel ends, and the one end sits flat on the ground... the top of the planter "should" be parallel to the ground. My brain was over processing the whole thing. Thanks for the correction.
@@cedarriverwoodworking
👍
Clean my miter saw station. Let me know whenever you’re done 😂
I've been working on it already lol.
A written list of wood sizes would help. You are great!
Plans will be out soon.

Clean up your workstation. But you have an awesome video. Thank you for sharing the measurements. I can't wait to give it a first try time. Can you do a video on bigger and taller ones. Thank you.😊
First off I really appreciate the support. I'm glad that you liked the format, it was a bit of a longer video. I can absolutely do a video on some taller planters.
Hey Andy how about a video on a wooden wheel barrel planter
That's a good one! I'll see what I can come up with. I appreciate the suggestion.
@@cedarriverwoodworking I've been looking around for a video to build me a couple of them
Clean your miter saw station. Actually yours looks good compared to my own. Great video. Thx.
Thank you! I have a tendency to not use my dust collection with it and it just feels like a huge mess. I appreciate the support.
gotta find you some minions to clean that station
Haha, an apprentice or something at least!
Clean your miter saw station! I have done these at 8 degree. My biggest problem is my miter saw only tips to the left. I wasted more wood ant time trying to figure out how to do the bevels. Any suggestions from anyone?
I struggle with them a bit too. I will try to re visit that subject in future videos.
@@cedarriverwoodworking Thank you.
*Nice Build!!! How Much are You Selling these for?*
Thank you. I have personally sold 4 at $60, but a range of $40-$75 would be a great fit for them.
@@cedarriverwoodworking
*I’m going to make a Trip to Home Depot Today & see what size inserts I can find. I’ll make a few based off that size. Nice Build. I’ll post my version of your build.*
@@Ricks2Cents I really like building planters around inserts.
can you please have your camera closer to your work, so we can follow what your doing better,thanks
I will work on doing better with that.
Clean your miter saw station, is the bottom of planter just open?
I explain that a little later in the video actually. Some of the scraps I glued and nailed inside for bottom supports.
You forgot to mention that the shorter pieces ore not parallelogram
The shorter ones are trapezoids yes. That is noted in the plans.
Awesome Video, Thanks
Reminder for you and myself “Clean Your Miter Station”
I appreciate the support.
Do you put a bottom in these planter?
Yes I explained that near the end of the video
What depth did you set your pocket hole bit?
1/2" I mentioned that at the 10:22 mark.
You sure did. I just went back and listened to it. I had just missed that detail. Thanks for getting back to me. Great work and great video.
Personally I don’t think that Brad nails on the edges are the best option even with the glue. Matthew Peech goes with pocket holes which are a bit more hassle in terms of time but will likely hold up better over the seasons. That’s what I use also.
I like the brad nails because I can assemble the walls completely without having to fight the vertical boards after I get the frame built. I do appreciate all of the comments and I appreciate your support. Thank you for all the tips.
@@cedarriverwoodworking totally what I was getting at with the extra time hassle. Can be a pain. I just like the peace of mind. Don’t want neighbors secretly resenting a purchase after one season lol
Can’t find the plans on Etsy
They aren't up yet.
