How to Build a Planter Box - Easy DIY Project

- How to Build a Scrap Wood Raised Planter Box or Garden Bed with Legs. Suffering from a bad back can be a painful experience when working out in the garden which is why having a raised planter box or garden bed is such a great idea! Making the planter box mobile is also an added advantage as you can move it around to escape the scorching sun or howling wind. Building the planter box out of the right materials is also an important factor to consider. I’m using reclaimed hardwood fence palings for this raised garden bed which has a couple of benefits. It’s durable so it’s suitable for outside use, it’s food safe and because it has been salvaged…..it won’t cost you a single cent! Scrap wood projects like this planter box are also beneficial in that you are using materials that would otherwise have been thrown out or burnt so it’s a good feeling to know that you are also doing your little bit to save the planet. I hope you enjoy and find the video useful

#planterbox #scrapwood #scrapwoodproject - Jak na to + styl
G'day Folks and Welcome to my Mobile Planter Box video. This is another scrap wood project that's quick, cheap and easy to build. Hope you enjoy it and if l don't see beforehand, l hope you all have a Merry, and Safe Christmas. Cheers 👍😁🇦🇺🎄
Look up wicking beds, it's a whole new universe of growing stuff with out constantly watering, better than keeping your masking tape in zip lock bags.
My wife made heaps of those wicking pots out of just about anything with her students at special school. They work a treat.
You guys always say that these things are easy. LOL! I love your presentation and your finished product is awesome. Just wondering if you can show us real newbies how to build a simpler elevated raised garden bed that doesn’t require using those scary power saws? Perhaps that’s asking too much?
What about a hinge to board for the drip pans.
How u get your pallets apart
As a chiropractor, your joke was very well received. Thanks, I needed a good chuckle.
😂....Thanks Cam 👍🇦🇺
Tip with the clamps to keep the sides upright is so simple, yet, genius!
Yeah it works a treat mate 👍😁
I love to listen to you talk, you’re so funny yet you’re so informative!
👍😁....Glad you liked it Jerry and thanks for taking the the time to watch mate 👍😁🇦🇺
I am not only a knucklehead, I now have an uncle named Bob! Love it! Love the project also...nice and simple,and my back thanks you.
Gotta look after that back Juliet 👍😁 Glad you enjoyed the video and l hope you all have a safe and Merry Christmas 👍😁🇦🇺🎄
@@diyforknuckleheads Merry Christmas to you and your family and all the best for the New Year. Keep those easy-to-make projects coming!
Wow I stumbled across this video and I gotta thank you for not playing super loud background music, right off the top. Appreciate the humor as well.
No worries! Thanks for taking the time to watch 👍😁🇦🇺
If I didn't see you make it, I'd say you bought the planter box. It's so good to look at.
The little touches you added really make the box look wonderful.
I and my kids made one a few weeks ago, and now I've seen your video well we just happen to need.... 6 more planter boxes and this is perfect.
Fantastic!
Keep up the great work.
New sub!
Brilliant - no more words!
Thank you!
Glad you liked it O.C 👍😁

Superb tutorial, exactly what I was looking for. You make it fun to watch and I also like how you show your mistakes. Thank you so much for this, I really appreciate it.
Glad it was helpful Emporium!.....appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching 👍 Hope you're having a great weekend 👍😁🇦🇺
Cup of tea?! I'm a Pom, don't ruin the illusion of 4x/Fosters/barbie/surfing Aussies! ;-) I'm East Anglian (Norfolk), where I'm led to believe a lot of the initial "settlers" originated. Due to my similar accent, and former career as a long distance truck driver, I've often been asked which part of Australia I'm from whilst still being in the UK (accents vary a whole lot more here than in Oz)! If I had the resources, I'd emigrate down there in an eye blink. If only to visit the MCG.....
This is brilliant. I've recently started making garden furniture (planters, benches, trellis etc) commercially, as much as possible out of recycled material. I'm always looking for inspiration and tips to improve my products, and this has helped no end. Cheers. Cobber (! ;-) )
Good stuff Simon! 😂....Don't worry mate.....come 5 o'clock, that all changes 🍺 The MCG is Australia's Holy Land. My brother lives just a good cover drive from it so it's a place well visited 👍👍 Thanks for watching mate and good luck with the projects! 👍😁🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🍺
@@diyforknuckleheads Glad to hear it re 5 o'clock! It's always 5 o'clock somewhere.......!
Lucky brother! That place is as enthralling and spiritual as Lords.
Talking of cover drives, are you aware that the Poms just whitewashed the Kiwis with Brendon McCullum in charge?!
And RIP Warnie :-(
He was good enough to play for England! ;-) (Dean Jones once said Botham was good enough to play for Australia, so I thought I'd return the compliment!). We'll always bang on about the 05 Ashes, but it wouldn't have been what it was without him and his genuine sportsmanship, plus, 40 wickets on the losing side?! Then there's the Strauss ball.....
Only just stumbled upon your channel, so will have a catch up. I don't bother with TV any more. Yootoob is so much more informative, real and entertaining.
Go steady.
Well done, Shane! I sure hope we see more videos from you next year. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Same to you and your family too David and thanks for watching...hope to see your name in the comment section next year. Cheers mate 👍😁🎄🇦🇺
Merry Christmas mate, love the planter box, I’ll be making a couple this Christmas holidays.

Love it, that's a tidy project. I'm always in 2 minds about solid legs or face timber, but that taper cut has sold me on it! Merry Christmas
Thanks Lee...yeah l'm a big fan of the splayed leg...ideal configuration form the beginner and they look great 😁👊 Merry Christmas to you as well! 👍😁🇦🇺🎄
Ĺaugh and learn , can't beat it!

Cairo practor lol... A great watch and listen throughout sir. Thank you. 👍😊
😂....My pleasure Paul! Thanks for taking the time to watch mate 👍😁🇦🇺
Grouse idea mate, the more I see reused timber the more I see it being weather tested beauty & keeping your back in good nick is imperative, I put a raised veggie garden together using leftover treated pine sleepers & nails as a platform & donged a couple of Aldi planter boxes on top, looks rough as gut & works a treat 🍻🍻🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍👍👍
Thanks Dirk....gotta love the old stuff mate....a little time consuming but the end result is always awesome! Good to see Aldi coming to the rescue again mate 👍👍 Have a good one digger 👍😁🇦🇺🎄
I confess... I laughed to egyptian spine manipulator joke 😂

Just a bully planter project, Shane! And the Cairo-practor Dad-joke was a HUGE bomb for my grown sons! Keep 'em comin', mate! Cheers, Scotty (Norway)
