The $6 Three Picket Planter - Low Cost High Profit - Make Money Woodworking
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 06. 2024
- A new larger planter box design based on the insanely popular original! In this video, I will be teaching you step-by-step how to build this awesome planter by using only 3 fence pickets! In my area right now pine pickets are $1.98 each and the cedar pickets have come down to $3.37. That means that you can make these beautiful planters for around $6 in the material. I've received countless success stories from people building and selling tons of the picket planters of each design so make sure to check them out! I'll link the other planter designs below.

This channel has to be one of only a few no BS channels that actually teaches you something. The best part of your channel is not the tips you give us or the project ideas you deliver but the mindset you teach which is by far the most valuable aspect of making money from this craft.
Thank you for everything you do
I appreciate that! Our mind is one of the biggest challenges when we are creators/makers. I know for me personally I’ve used woodworking as a type of outlet for many years. It is my therapy and I hope others can use it in that way too.
@Matthew Peech yes I agree with you Matthew, once I get out to my shop I get out of my head and in the zone.
I couldn’t agree more. Thank you for doing these videos.
I find myself saving all these videos and swearing I'm gonna do them all. 😂
😬 you can do it.
😅😅😅😅 me to but adult life is kicking my but lol
Me too
😂 me to. In no universe am I gonna do it - but I still like to watch it. ❤
I made one yesterday now gotta figure out a price
After making the larger version of this multiple times, I came up with a hack to get perfect trim and side heights. The trim 45 degree cut with a 7 degree bevel was an issue for me, because my chop saw doesn’t bevel. I also would get sides that didn’t always match up in height, so I would need to sand a bit to get the trim to lay flat. To solve both issues, I used my table saw. Once you make the frames, take them to the table saw and trim the top of each frame with a 7 degree bevel. This insures your sides are equal heights and your trim lays flat.
For all you trade guys sharing this stuff with the world, thanks.
This man here is the best at teaching. Provides a cut list along with a real well defined video to teach step by step all at no cost. Whole bottle of awesome sauce.
I love your designs and videos. I have been following you for a year now and have been very successful. I am disabled and you allow me to keep working and make lil extra money. Only problem I have is cant build them fast enough lol. Thank you so much! You gave me my life back!
Lol That is a good problem to have! :) I’m so glad you have found a way to make some extra income. Keep up the good work.
Just build a jig for the each side and label each one. I just put one together on my bench and tack scrap wood on the outside to keep together tight glue and screw together
Thank you for doing these videos. I’ve been a woodworker for 40 years and I learn something new most times; but, I’m inspired every time. Keep it up!
I've enjoyed making a number of the projects you've posted. With this one I added a very slight round over on the horizontal slats. Added a nice, slightly more finished look. Thanks for the video
Please post more , love listening and learning from you 🙃
Thanks! And there's plenty more to come!
I am new to wood working, and have already learned so much from your videos!! You have totally got me inspired!! Thanks!!
Man love these videos, i really appreciate the extra few seconds on how you explain the 720 pocket hole and mitre saw, really helps when you slow down so we can see whats going on, i know experience guys wont like it, but a starter guy like me makes a big difference. most channel run threw everything like we all should know whats up. i really enjoy your teaching.
I watch about a dozen of your videos in the last couple days . Very well put together video I’ve bought and have built two of the cedar planters and look awesome
I enjoy the way you demonstrate how to make these tapered planters. They standout from most of the other planters on the market. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for providing this free plan and the instructional video. I'm in the process of making three of these with my Wife and our daughter and we are really enjoying the process.
Great stuff Matthew! Can't wait to give it a try. Right after I make the pet steps. Which I really need for my babies! 🤠
Thank you! You've inspired me in a huge way, and with each build, my confidence grows. Keep up the amazing work.
Awesome! Keep growing. You’ve got this.
Please always keep your instructions simple as you're doing, I'm just getting into woodwork and don't know all that simple stuff yet, so being told/shown it is is great education.
Thank you, great vids!
A friend and I were just in the home center the other day and talking about you and this exact build. Good timing! We put together a garden trellis and it came out great!
That is awesome! Keep up the good work.
There are a lot of planter designs out there and I think this is the best. The taper really stands out from the square ones.
I made 2 for my wife and thought I’d make some more to sell. I sold 7 like this and 6 bigger ones.
Wood costs more in my area, but I managed to make a profit of about $25 each.
Thanks for the motivation!
Hi, there are so many ways I can say thank you for what you do and all the video's techniques and free plans that you give to use. Im learning so much from you. Please continue to do what you do for everyone and disabled people,like myself. God bless you and keep doing what you do best
❤
You are still my favorite CZcams channel. I’m a full time lathe turner and I like watching your presentations cuz it’s nice to see wood that is not spinning at 1700 RPM.
Thank you for the support.
You're an awesome guy. I love that you help people. I don't do wood working but love watching your videos.
Made one of these this weekend. Super simple and quick to put together. I altered it a bit and cut an 8 degree bevel with the table saw on the top so that the top trim laid flat since I don't trust myself making a compound miter joint.
I also love these videos. I've saved a few. Since my shop burned up, I have to start over. So, I'm saving for now untill I have the tools to begin making these.
Bob Ross voice of wood building
This is my first CZcams subscription. Great instructional video. Easy to follow and replicate. Made 5 of these this weekend. The first one with 1x cedar boards and the other 4 from cedar pickets. The pickets were the thinner ones so I had to predrill where the pocket screws were going to go in to prevent splitting. The 1" pin heads worked great after that. I threw together a quick jig to help keep the A-frame pieces in place while screwing them together. Well worth the 5 minutes it took. Everything worked out great. The planters look fabulous and are extremely sturdy. I scaled the plans down an inch and will probably scale it down a little more to adjust for smaller square pots.
Fun project. Thanks for the video.
Matthew, I cannot thank you enough for making these videos so easy and simple to follow, you are great at teaching! I made one of these for my mother in law, she loved it! I was intimidated by the mitres and bevels, but I conquered this planter box! Thank you again Matthew!
Great job!
Never fail to impress, cheers Matt.
Thanks for all your hardwork and helpful tips and advice 😊
Great video! I'm not ready for making stuff as a side hustle yet. This spring/summer/fall is to focus on fixing up the barn at our new property so we have a woodshop over the winter. Please keep putting videos out at your pace because the quality is always excellent
I am going to give a go at building 2 of these as my first (non-jig or workbench) projects in my new wood shop. I appreciate these videos for making projects seems so approachable!
Wow, you're a master motivator! I'm stoked. And I'm glad I'm a subscriber. Thanks
That's great Matthew! I think this is my favorite design yet. Thanks!
Awesome, thank you!
Matthew you took the time to post for all.
So I'm taking time to think you great work,
All your projects are great!
Keep coming.

I been following for about a year now. I love watching ur channel. thank you.
Awesome! Thank you!
I'm loving your videos & help! Thank you so much!
I'm new to woodworking and this is my favorite channel. I bought a few starter tools. Dewalt table saw, miter saw and orbital sander. Skil circular saw. Pocket hole jig. Already owned a Bosch drill and my least favorite tool a Ryobi jigsaw.
I love these videos man. I’m trying to get my woodworking going. Im gathering my first tools I will need and I have so many plans because of the videos you have posted. Thank you for the inspiration.
Awesome! I’m glad to help. You’ve got this.
Remember if you're just getting started you can get a good deal of great tools used to lower your start up cost.
Just like gigs said, don’t go hog wild on tools right out of the gate! First tools that will be used almost every time you build are your drill and impact. Get those brand new during a decent sell. After that, find you a circular saw second hand or new, as long as it is within your budget. Speed square and a tape measure. These items will make you dangerous and ready to build darn near anything! As your skills progress and begin adding more tools and goodies. I have been tearing up wood now for a few years and I started out with the bare minimum, now I pretty well have a full on wood working shop that is still ever growing!
Matthew, love your videos. I enjoy these builds and will adding some of these to my arsenal for our upcoming vendor market in April!
@Chris Smith your right I've bought tools off face book, and I go to garage sale
tape measure, circular saw, wood glue, screw driver, speed square. that's about the minimum you'll need.
but to add to that to make it a little more comfortable: kreg accu-cut (turns circular saw into a track saw), 2 saw horses, drill, pocket hole jig (I literally just bought the cheapest kreg one and it's 10x faster than glue and clamps).
upgrades from those 2 list are miter saw, table saw, work bench, brad nailer.
All of the tools could be purchased used from pawn shops, goodwill, harbor freight. I've read Wen has some decent new tools that are budget priced but I haven't used any.
Yaaaay! Spring projects!!❤
Oh yea! I have several more already in the works!
Thanks for all the great content. I always get super excited when I see you put out a new video. So many woodworkers are switching over to the What Tools you must have and what you need before you start wood working. I love that you put out incredible content on how to build and how to start a woodworking business without having to make coffee tables and big furniture. How long would you say it takes you to make one of these? And how would you recommend changing up the way you build to mass produce? Or do you recommend only doing one at a time.
Love what you do!! Make it look so easy!!!
Thanks for the heads-up on the masks. Hubs finally decided to start wearing one so I picked us both up one for Valentine's day. 👍
That is awesome!
I'm not a woodworker but have always had an interest. I've been watching your videos and you break things down very well for a beginner, so I felt i could give it a try. I tried the farmhouse design - made 4 getting the feel for things, turned out OK (i think i will use them for Mothers Day gift) but learned alot. I then moved on to this style to try, I made two and sold them before they were complete. I wasn't intending to sell them as was using them to learn, I just happened to be in the garage on the phone when my friend asked what i was doing, i snapped a picture and sent it to him and said working on these. 2 days later he texted said he showed the pic to his wife and she wanted to buy them. Sold, delivering Monday. Now trying to decide on what i do next.
Love this planter!
Best instruction I have come across
Thanks for another great tutorial! Always look forward to your videos.
My pleasure!
You are such and amazing teacher, I love your videos
Great family friendly intelligent informative creative content!!🎉thank you
💕 Thank you, Matt. Love your designs. 💕
You are so welcome!
Another great video! Those planters look like a real fun build! 👏
I found this exact same planter online somewhere and bought the plan. So easy to build. I've built 5 so far and plan to give them away for Xmas gifts.
In reference to the top trim, if youll flip the board from top to bottom as opposed to flipping left to right you can cut the 45 on the other end of the board and not have to worry about changing the bevel to the opposite side of the saw. Your board will now be on the opposite side of the saw blade then it was was for the first cut. Why change the bevel again if you dont have to.?, Set up the saw once and leave it. As mentioned this is only referenced to the top trim, just an idea, but great build I'm gonna give her a go. Thanks for the great videos.
Just made this project. It was a quick build, I love it. I actually cut down really thin strips when I rip down my 2x6s and have leftovers. I cut them down to about 1/4". That's what I used for the slats. Since they're really just to close in the box they don't really pose a durability problem. This way I just use the staple gun to put them on. The thing looks great. Only thing I'm gonna change going forward is I'm gonna leave the 8 degree bevel out of the top trim and leave it straight. I love your channel though. Glad today was warm out enough here in Canada to get in the garage and try this out. The wife loves it. Gonna have a lot of work to do this summer. Thanks again man.
The wife wants me to try to build a taller one too. I think I'll do this same build maybe change the bevel to maybe... 4-5 degrees and have it about 32" tall. Love it man. Gonna make a ton of these.
I'm on the fence picket of quiting my 9-5 & starting my wood shop business because of this channel!! 😃👍🏼
That is awesome! I’m so glad to hear this.
Your channel is awesome! Excellent ideas, great narration, video production and humor.
Thank you very much!
I think this project + trellis would make a fantastic combo to sell. Going to try it out !!
As they used to say in my old neighborhood: "You better tell somebody!!!". I like making these because they're easy to make and in the hope one day I would sell them. But today, while I was working on some, a lady stopped in front of my house and practically bought one off the workbench! She said she's going to paint it pink. Thanks, Mister Matt!!!
The the look of that planter!
I thought it turned out pretty nice too.
Great stuff, Matthew!! I'm pretty new to woodworking, but I do want to make money doing it, since I just spent a fortune on equipment for my shop. I'm in the middle of building a large chicken coop for my yard at the moment, but after it's done, I'd like to try my hand with these planters and see if I can actually make some money for a change. Thanks for yet another great video!! I always enjoy them!!
They look amazing
Just starting to set up my shop, love watching for channel thanks for all were help.
Glad to help
I really enjoy your videos. I have made about a 20 of the other tampered ones. I will definitely be trying to make this one this week.
Good luck!
I actually made this. It was my first time doing one of Mr. Peech's projects and it all came together wonderfully and the wife loves it. And I'm a complete noob. There are some touchups to be done due to some mistakes I made, but I was amazed at how this worked out. There was a point mid-project where I thought, "this is going too easily. Certainly I've messed something up." But that was not the case. Thank you for all that you do. Love the channel.
"this is going too easily. Certainly I've messed something up."
absolutely the worst phase you can think of.. because at that point you'll want to stop and try to figure it out.
nice. thank you for this updated version.
You're welcome!
Another awesome video I’m in the process of getting my wood shop finished my youngest son also has an interest in wood working
That is awesome! Hopefully it will be a place for you guys to learn together and spend some quality time.
I've seen some of these planters for sale in my area. The designs are the exact ones I've seen on your channel. It's obvious your videos are reaching a wide audience. I'm hooked watching them and as soon as I ever get my garage cleared out, I'd like to try and build some myself...
you earned a new sub. Fantastic tutorial on all your videos, really appreciate what you do, ty my friend
love the videos man! Came across your channel yesterday and cant quit watching great work man!
Welcome aboard! Thanks for the support.
Awesome, thanks again for the great ideas!
Your the best ! I am really happy I found your channel and I’m retiring soon and hope to start making some of the projects. I started making barn quilts that friends and family have loved but are very time consuming as I’m kinda a perfectionist so not a good way to make extra money
Thanks again
Another awesome video, I never miss one.
Thanks! Plenty more to come!
6:22 You can also predrill the board you drive the screw into using a long narrow drill to avoid splitting.
Little Shop reference. Nice.
Love love!! Made a mini version for tabletop planter.. too cute and costed less than 2.00😊
Another great fence picket project
Thanks!
great video and yes, staging is key
Thanks for what you do just made one now got to make 10 more going to try the farm house one next
Love it! I have been inspired by your previous videos. I have been making a few of the other 3 picket planter design. Thank you so much for what you are doing Peech! Keep up the fantastic work! 👏 👍 👌 🙌
Wonderful! Keep up the good work.
@Matthew Peech I received a reply that said "highlighted reply" with your logo. Is that actually you Peech?
Absolutely brilliant video thanks. 🥰🇬🇧
Hi Matthew, I've been a subscriber for a while now and really like your approach to videos, no distracting music, no sponsor speeches taking up a third of the video unlike some I could mention, just good solid content.
You couldn't build those planters for that price here in the UK. The only fence pales/pickets I can find here are: 5/8" x 2 3/4'" x 47 1/4" planed, converted from metric and they're the equivalent of $4.38 each!
A better solution for me I think, would be to use what they call ' featherboards ' over here. They're about 4" wide and 71" long. They're really narrow on one edge and about 1/2" to 3/4" on the other edge. I can buy them for the equivalent of $1.70 each , but they're pretty rough so they need a lot of sanding or I could leave them with the rustic effect including splinters.They could be made flush on the outside and ' feathered ' on the inside. It'd take some complicated working out but I think I could make it work.
The biggest problem I've got is lack of space. I live in what's known here as sheltered housing, most of the residents are older/seniors ( I'm 68 years young ) so too much power tool use can lead to complaints. Also, the only space I have available in my apartment is my second bedroom which is only 11" 6' by 7" 6', so no room for a decent table saw 😕. I've got a Bosch Pro saw that I can use with a track and a sliding mitre saw but no room for much else.
I'm building a small built in wardrobe in there at the moment and that's become a challenge.
One question I'd like to ask you is, how do you ship your planters? Do you sell them as flat pack and self assembly or all fitted up?
Glad you are showing an option to the Kreg hardware. Kreg screws are expensive and the reality is that other screws will work with the pocket holes. Nice job.
thanks for he great vid. Just made my first, and put a small round over on each edge of the panel segments which looks good. Also don't have the chop saw so had to make a little jig to get the angles using cross cut sledge on the table saw..
again, amazing instructional video. I was able to sell 10 of the previous one.
You have inspired me to start yet another hobby. Thank you I look forward to trying my hand at some of these.
Have fun! You’ve got this.
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking is the Krefeld 320 good enough to get started with? Or will I hate it??
Kreg
I was inspired by you and built a elevated raised bed planter made out of cedar fence pickets.
Nice!
Great stuff!!!
Great ideas and explanation.
I’ll post pics on brag board of my take on your planter. I’m using old reclaimed lathe, got for free, painted white for the side panel fill pieces. This cuts my cost almost in half for each planter. Using roughly 1 1/2 pickets for the build. And they look great in cedar with the white lathe inserts!
One of the few people who actually uses ppe!
I just cut all my pieces out, great detailed instructions. I didnt have the 1" fine thread pocket screws, but amazon to the rescue with next day delivery. I dont have your Kreg jig but the cheap-o-version. But it worked out perfect aligning the jig with the bottom of the angle cut. I cant wait to get this together.
Nice job!
I can’t wait to make an sell planters . I downloaded plans .. great instructions too
Great build! One thing I caught, in the video you say switch to fine thread but that's a coarse thread screw. Cheers
Awesome planter
I should have waited one day LOL, just bought the other planter plans yesterday.
First, I’ll say I love your videos! The inspiration and the go get them attitude is what keeps me watching. For this particular build, I cut out the parts in your list in the order that you listed them and I think that’s where I made a mistake. I ended up with some scrap and not enough to make the entire project out of three boards so I had to go to a fourth board to complete it. You didn’t mention it in the comments, nor did you mention it in the video but perhaps they should’ve been cut in longest to shortest order and that would’ve prevented me from having to go to a fourth board?
Great job and project thx for sharing enjoyed it Be safe God Bless
Thanks, you too!
Not sure if this is new to others but I use a tie strap on my drill bit to mark my stop point.
Also my husband's become obsessed with gardening and many of his plants have me saying "Feed me Seymour!" 😆
The planter is cool but the way you bent that board around your miter saw is genius.
Love your channel.
Greetings from Australia.
Nice work on the planter and great video.
