    // ABOUT THIS VIDEO
    Today I'm building DIY planters. These modern, modular planters are a simple woodworking project. And these things would also make great Snack holders.
    // DIMENSIONS
    - all material is 1/4" thick
    - pieces that make triangle are 4.5" x 1.75" with 60 degree bevels on each end.
    - Bottom pieces cut to size needed after rabbits have been cut

    I love watching your videos, they make my lunch at work much more enjoyable, the planters look great, I have found that perfect miters around a whole object, like a picture frame are hard! A great way to hide the gaps and imperfections has been to run a screwdriver over the joint to crush the fibers into the gap, then sand and it almost goes away.

    You could also make the same modular planters as the CNC with either a scroll saw or bandsaw - it's basically a bandsaw box without a drawer or lid. No need to apologize for having a tool that others don't have access to.

    • @Foureyes.Furniture
      @Foureyes.Furniture  6 років тому

      I've never made one...but you're right. Might be something to explore down the road

    • @GrumpysWorkshop
      @GrumpysWorkshop 6 років тому

      It might actually beat the CNC. Take your original hexagon, cut it apart into the odd shaped blocks, resaw off the bottoms, drill out the corners so they're round, make your bandsaw entry points inline with the grain and saw out the middles. A little glue in the entry kerf and gently clamp it shut. Sand out the interiors, glue the bottoms back on, sand the exteriors, and you're done.

    I wear t-shirts that costs 3 Euro each, to spend 10 times more for a product that maybe last just as long does not seem like a good investment. the ones I have comes in 5 different colours and 3 different designs so I have plenty to chose from. That's not the only type I wear, but on a day to day basis it is. They also last about 8 months and feel good to wear as well, and what's most important is that they aren't too warm.

    • @hansdegroot8549
      @hansdegroot8549 5 років тому

      Those cheap T-shirts could be made of cotton, grown where before a forest was. A lot of water could have been used, what otherwise could have been water for drinking.
      There could have been used chemicals which can be dangerous to health for both wearer and producer. The people who produced those cheap T-shirts
      could be children, who should rather go to school than working in a factory. Cheap things also have their price which can not be expressed in money.

    These honestly wouldn't take any longer to make with just hand tools but really no one likes big box store tools and as bad ass as karate chops are getting those miters right would be a nightmare. I would be a little concerned that this design would split along those butt joints over time. However, they look great and a great use for some cherry scraps.

    @RCW-Designs 6 років тому +1

    People complaining about CNC usage can suck it. Seriously, it's just a newer tool for woodworking. And those who complain saying it isn't woodworking need to just stop. I doubt they avoid any other technological advancement. I'm sure they drive a car, use a phone, obviously a computer of some type. It's just a new tool and it requires new skills.

    • @Foureyes.Furniture
      @Foureyes.Furniture  6 років тому +2

      indeed. And I can tell you between these two projects, with all of the tools at my disposal....the CNC version was WAY harder for me to make and design. Making 10 million of them might be easier with a CNC - but one...not so much

    • @cmarkb
      @cmarkb 6 років тому +1

      Obviously, neither of you are considering the cost of the cnc itself. Some of us have limited budgets and do not have corporate sponsors. Your analogies don't have any basis nor do they apply to all serious woodworkers.

    • @carpenterone3
      @carpenterone3 6 років тому

      I’m a professional cabinet builder and woodworker, I have a CNC at my shop,but I understand when people say it’s not wood working, truth be told even when useing power tools there is a huge learning curve, also when clamping down a template and useing a pattern bit on a router you have to make sure not to tilt the router and to climb cut to get the best finished product, something as simple as turning a brad nailer 90 degrees so the nails have less of a chance of blowout do to bending along the factory lines on the brads takes years of knowledge and trial by error, I use cabinet vision and it’s not overly complicated to learn, so if someone buys that program and takes a week Figuring it out, then bam there a woodworker? I can’t dog someone for useing a machine that I own, but let’s not pretend that useing a cnc is not infact Easier and that building a mortise and tenon table using “power tools” should be respected more amongst woodworkers.

    • @RCW-Designs
      @RCW-Designs 6 років тому

      Daniel B the same can be said for power tools vs hand tools. At the end of the day it's all tools just getting you to the same result. A pattern bit and a router get the same results as CNC almost, and it's not seen with near the angst that using a CNC is. I'm not going to argue that using a CNC would replace the skill it takes to design and build from scratch, but to batch out a ton of production work or get almost exact results for templates, hell yeah, use it. I design and build furniture mostly starting from rough slabs I select and get dried. Doesn't all end up as live edge slabs, but either way I'm using a multitude of tools and skills to get to the end product. If some of those skills involve 3d design, then so be it. CNC and 3d printers will become the next tools that are in almost every shop.

      are you asking if it's the same as the project from a week ago?
      It's a diff project of the same idea

    This project would have been better received by me had you actually used it. I mean had you put real plants in it and shown us how you were excited about using it, it would have gone over much better. Don’t build stuff you don’t give a shit about and expect others to dig it.

      I liked the project. I was just listening to the podcast and thought I’d give you my pov. I enjoy your vids and pods. Keep up the good work!

    The content to ad ratio is getting seriously concerning... 1 minute / 6 on your underwear, seriously?!

      the ads are pretty much always the same length, this just happens to be a short video - I wouldn't lose any sleep over it :)

      Thibault JEHL I wish he was _in_ his underwear for a minute (or 6)!😁
