  • DIY Homemade Hand Held Seed Planter
    My wife loves to plant her garden each spring. She asked if I would make her something so she could plant her seeds without having to bend down or crawl along the ground. So, in my typical southern boy DIY style, I designed and built her a hand-held seed planter using old scrap material. I think this homemade tool turned out pretty good. Sure, it’s a little over engineered for its purpose, but it was a blast to build.
    Welcome to my channel dedicated to all things DIY and creative! Here, I share how I find innovative and resourceful ways to make repairs, gadgets, or homemade tools. With a focus on improvisation, I often use the tools and materials I have on hand to tackle those DIY shop projects.

    @Southern Ingenuity I really liked it as a recycler. Now, as a planter, it left something to be desired... it could have a reservoir with a seed counter and graduation. With 1,2,3,4,5 seeds per hole. Tmj! Big hug.

      Thanks, I may have to revisit it to improve its efficiency. Maybe install a cordless drill with a masonry bit for that hard packed ground. lol. Thanks for watching!

    Outstanding, repurposing steel and other stuff, I do it all the time, not only do you save $$$, also helps the land fill not fill so fast.

      Sorry, there aren't any blue prints. I just kinda made it up as I went along using what scrap material I had available. Thanks for watching!

      I’m sure it could be done. Maybe I’ll incorporate that into my next one. Thanks for watching!

    Неудачная модель . Так изделие ради процесса.ручка не удобная под 2 пальца , открытие "клюва" тоже не удачное . Узкий спектр применения - на малых площадях и легкие песчаные почвы.

      Yes, it could use some refinement, and building it was a learning experience. If I make another, I'll definitely improve on the original design. It was meant to be used in well tilled soil, otherwise it would be near impossible to get the seed below the surface. Thanks for watching!
