@modern studies True. But some of us already have the tools and we're looking for some ideas and cheap materials.
Switch the plastic to landscaping fabric
If anyone is interested in coop plans the greatest success that I have had was by following the Coop Magic Tactic (i found it on google) definately the no.1 course that I've tried.
@@gmrrnracr Exactly...gardeners would cringe if plastic is used. Secondly, Crafted Workshop's version is very nice but it's decorative. If you're a gardener that wants a less expensive and more functional elevated raised bed see here: ua-cam.com/video/DMORpDWq-q8/v-deo.html or here: ua-cam.com/video/ivNw4CzLskc/v-deo.html
Would the wood rot???
So beautiful! And your mom is incredible! Love the arrangement she made - absolutely stunning!
Just made this as a gift for my mom for Mother's Day. Came out great! Thanks for the video and plans, they were very easy to follow. My only feedback would be to include a brief explanation on how you would make these without some of the more expensive tools. Keep it up!
Just completed 3 of them, turned out great. Thanks for the plans
Love your planter boxes. I went with the blue screws however I used black and blue casters. Lots of fun.
Great job! Looks nice and clean.
Just one tip for the metal cutting you did. When making straight cuts the blade will last 5-10x as long if you cut the angle with both ends facing down and the center/v facing up.
Cutting the way you did I get 30-50 cuts. With the v facing up I get 100+
Уважения, и почет мастеру . Золотые руки.
I would love to build something similar for my mom’s vegetable garden. Awesome turnout.
Built three of these last year for my backyard gardening. I did not know to add a plastic drop cloth to retain moisture, so didn't do very well. Will try again this year a bit better informed thanks to this video!
Wow.... I need a primitive technology version of this video. 😁
That is 1 heck of dream work shop btw.
This looks fantastic!
I'd love to know what plants were used in this! And even the ratio your mother was using for her soil mix.
Beautiful planters and your Mom did an amazing job. Thanks for sharing.
This is the best one I've seen so far! I think i may tackle this one. Thank you!
just finished this build with only an electric screwdriver, hand saw, and staple gun. looks great! and I used aluminum instead of steel for the legs.
Can the aluminum hold the weight of the box filled with wet soil?
@@JAMAICAN876 Aluminum angle is very strong being the weight is being transferred to the screws attaching to the box. Use construction adhesive. Better yet order Bostiks Grip n Grab. Waaaay better and faster initial bite when attaching
This looks so much fun! I just need all those amazing tools
Nice man Super equipment Beautiful job 80 yrs. English Lady who used to enjoy wood crafts. Enjoyed your video
Great work and such a thorough tutorial! Thanks for sharing and I might use this idea.
I’ll definitely be making these this spring. Love them!
Starting off strong with the opening squat!
Brian Prusa 😂😂😂😂
You are so amazing & I am so in love with your work space & tools. Thank you.
LOVE IT and will have to try it out. Thank You!
Beautiful boxes! From experience, over time...it's best to use doubled over high mil plastic or Tyvek.
Actually duraskrim would be better if also have used a bulkhead fitting for cleaner drainage out of this “drill and mitre” build
These are cool man! well done, you know i dig the metal and wood look!
Thanks man!
Absolutely beautiful!
Im trying to make this but on a much smaller scale for home decor on a floating shelf that I have beneath my television.
Great tutorial! I made these last summer and get lots of compliments! Thanks!
I recommend using landscape fabric instead of the plastic. It is durable, holds dirt in. Lets water drain out. And maybe extra oxygen for the plant roots
I thought so too but he used pressure-treated pine on the bottom, meaning that you need some kind of non-permeable barrier to protect the plants from the chemicals in the wood.
@@kalanlynn2067 🤣 your funny!
So clean and beautiful! 💪 Greetings from Poland 🌞🌞🌞
Makes me want to go get a cold saw or a horizontal band saw, it'd be sweet :) Very classy look, thanks for sharing.
Great presentation. This is the way to present ‘how to’ videos. Good job 👍
You also can do that we just a circular saw and angle grinder :-)
Man...I still need so many tools... loved this project though! Will likely try it!
You only need a miter saw, sander, and drill. It takes a little more time without the fancy tools, but don't think you need them.
1) The pocket hole jig is just used to save a bit of time; there are countless joints you could use instead, but the easiest here would just be to use a strip of wood to screw into.
2) The belt grinder was just used to deburr. The most common tool for doing that is actually a simple hand file, but you can use anything from a sharping block to a literal rock.
3) Finish nailguns in general are just time savers. They actually add no strength to wood and are just intended to hold the project together so you can keep working while the glue drys.
4) While clamps aren't strictly required here, I would still recommend simple bar or pipe clamps. They are cheap and versatile.
5) You can easily cut angle iron on a cheap miter saw if you swap to a metal grinding disk.
6) You can use a basic sander to prep the metal for paint. Any sander(include hand sanding) can sand metal. I use a random orbit sander to resurface my cast iron cook ware.
You should check out the woodworking for mere mortals series by Steve Ramsey. He teaches how to do projects using only basic tools.
I loved your shop organization on the back wall!!!
Most Replayed - Mom making potting mix and planting a beautiful layout or perfectly chosen plants!
This planter is gorgeous😍 Awesome job!!
Thanks!
that squat completed my day
😂
Man, this was such a great video! 👏🏼👍🏼. I love how you didn’t do anything “halfass-ed” lol when you could have easily
Hermoso!! Me encantan esas jardineras y quiero una así para mi antejardin.
Felicitaciones por su buen trabajo.
Gracias!!👏👏
It's Hip to T-Square!...
Also great work!
Nice Huey Lewis pun! Thanks.
This is an incredible worth for money [Link Here== *TopFineWoodworking. Com* ]. I have been looking for something like this for quite a while now. I'm happy there are opportunities like this out there. This woodwork plan made a clear presentation with regards to building sheds. Much thanks to you.?
Loved this build, dude!
Thanks man!
This is awesome. I want to use this as a template for a storage bench.
Hi first time on your channel love the plans. Just what I am looking to make my hubby is a disabled wheelchair bound veteran and he loves to garden. Only mine will be out of pine. Going to check with a metal shop, for the legs need to make it taller chair height. Thank you
Gorgeous planters, you better keep those plants Alive!
Hah, thanks mama!
What were the plants you used?
The planters looks great! Nice job!
Thank you!
Great planter box . This is what I'll do for my new deck at my cottage,
Thanks
They look great I used rubber 2” angle covers where the legs contact the deck. They’re about 1” tall.
this is awesome id love to try it. all i need is a miter saw, some clamps, wood glue, sander, staple gun, drill
you just need one thing. MONEY !
Don’t forget a metal saw and whatever it was he used to make the edges less lethal
Filter Fabric might have been a better option than the plastic. If you buy the right kind it will last 15+ years and is porous enough to allow proper drainage without losing any soil at all out the bottom of the box.
What is filter fabric? Can I get it at my local Joann store?
@@hellensmart6601 probably not at a Joann store (never heard of this place) but a local landscape supplier or big box store like Home Depot, Lowes, and even Walmart/Target (during the season) will have it. something like www.lowes.com/pd/Hanes-Geo-Components-TerraTex-360-ft-x-15-ft-Black-Nonwoven-Geotextile/3316316
Though it is expensive most places have rolls of the stuff and you can just get cut the amount you need.
@@zanesrg299 if you use textile not plastic it is risk that wood starts to rot. It is better use plastic as in movie, put on the bottom drain layer (expanded clay) than horizontal geotextile, and than soil.
I have flower pots in fruit crates with geotextile, it is good solution for roots, but not so good for ceates and wood.
Great video Johnny! Making some planter boxes this month and these look fantastic.
That is a great weekend project that any gardener would appreciate.
Hey, Johnny, I love the well-equipped workshop you have. I promised myself that when I win a stupid big amount in the lottery, I'll have a workshop just like yours and then I can let my dreams and creativity fly! ;) Thanks man.
Just need a mitre saw and drill... proceeds to use 20 thousands dollars in equipment lol.
Cpt.AirWolf I vote thumbs down and move on...this is DIY for carpenters in a shop
so much for diy..
Why do people always have this complaint? Just because he used a bunch of expensive tools to do it doesn't mean it is necessary it just made it easier work. It really is a simple job you don't even need an miter saw. This could be accomplished with a hand saw and a cheap drill really. Or a cheap circular saw if necessary. The pocket hole stuff isn't too pricey and it's not even a need for this job. Of course add some other basic hand tools like a hammer and some cutters. If you want any easier than this you better just go get a kit ready to assemble I guess.
Great points!@@JsGarage
Ikr? 🤣 I started the vid thinking, oh yeah, I can pull this off..then my hopes were crushed when he pulled out his equipment 🤷♀️
Gorgeous planters. Your workmanship is exquisite. True craftsman. Thanks for sharing.
I built this planter box this weekend thanks to your video. I was surprised how long it took! Basically took me 8 hours to build one long 9' box. Next weekend I will build another one a little bit faster! It was my first time working with steel it was super fun!
What wood material did you use, ceda?
simple n nice design,but not simple when i see the process
Thank you so much for the video. It was nicely done
They look great. Your mom did a great job on the plants too. I love my RZ Mask. Way more comfortable than others I've tried. I know you've been a long time Festool user. So glad they are sponsoring you. Just got a Domino and I'm loving it!
*TopFineWoodworking. Com* is an amazing book about wood working. I took several classes and completed a one year diploma in carpentry at a local tech college; this is better than any book I worked out of during those courses. It includes useful photos and goes over almost everything.
my favorite combo right there, where you combine steel and wood. Came out great. 1 question though, did you put a sealer on the cedar. if not it will loose that beautiful golden color and turn grey in a yr. I just built 2 , 30 ft cedar planters and sealed them with DEFY extreme. Id recommend a quality sealer if you want to keep them looking as nice as they do now. BTW they way your mom opened the soil bag from the bottom like a boss. we've been doing it wrong all these yrs lol.
Thanks! And yea, I want it to weather and get that grey look. My mom has definitely opened plenty of bags of soil in her day, she knows what’s up!
Those look great! Love the steel for the legs. I am actually finishing up a couple of smaller cedar planter boxes now (used cedar pickets for fun), I am planning on finishing mine off as a SIP (Sub Irrigated Planter). Did i mention i love the look of the steel against the Cedar!
Thanks a lot man! That sounds cool.
They look beautiful and fancy. Great job.
Landscape fabric dude
Extremely simple for who?😂🤣
They are beautiful though!
Simple to who has all those tools.
It is extremely simple, though. If you actually listen to what he says during the video, he explains how simply they can be made. Maybe woodworking isn't for you.
@@a8a999 Home depot will cut the boards for you it's the angle iron I'm not sure about
I'm a union-trained finish carpenter. This is carpentry 101.
Kroban3 Easy for those with the bent.
I need one of those....talkimg about everything on the video. ..😏 u have all the tools u need I want to learn ....looks so clean
Thank you for sharing beautiful boxes.
Good grief! Ru kidding me..i was so excited and then go depressed knowing I could never build these! One day. But thanks.
Anna Lore don’t use tools as an excuse. You could make it with a mitre saw, hacksaw and drill, if you don’t see the simplicity then woodworking is not the hobby for you
"simply build planter box.... with 87 tools"
Edward Aguirre I counted 89 :-)
Edward Aguirre and in the intro he said “ it could easily be made with a drill and mitre saw”. I still watched even though I quickly realized it was too advanced for me.
Yeah...about that
90% of the DIY planter box videos are made from guys that have a wood shop, which definitely makes these "advanced DIYs" - having said that, good video, good instructions, cool tools.
And a lot, a lot of screw !
Gorgeous... You make it look so easy. I am in awe of men or women who work comfortably with tools.
I'd love to know what plants you have in the planter, they look amazing
lmao super simple DIY...forgets to mention thats only true if you have a mini shop in your garage or something! i love the idea of this planter, i surely cant pull this off...i lost confidence when you pulled out those things that kept all the corners together and tight when you lined them all up😂
Harbor freight sells really cheep corner clamps for something around 5 bucks that will essentially do the same. Or buy a cheap band clamp
Wouldn´t call it DIY but... it´s pretty nice
WONDERFUL JOB NICE FROM PAKISTAN LIKE YOU
Nice work! You can give the outside of those boxes a couple brush coats of boiled linseed oil and they will look beautiful! It will help keep em lookin new, give them a nice golden color and won't contaminate the plants. 👍 take care
Damn $8.25 for that wood glue
$1500 for that miter saw.
"just a miter saw and a drill"
Here I used my sander, my clamps, my pocket hole jig, my belt grinder, and my miter saw that can cut steel.
Come on man, this isn't a simple build lol
And what about the finish nail gun
I think his point is, that you could do it without the fancy tools he used.
Not only that, but all festool tools!
screw gun and a bandsaw or sawzall is all you need
And he also has the audacity to charge people 5$ for the plans...
Add angle iron support bolted between all four legs at the bottom supporting the wood and you have a decent design, even better if you run them around the top edge also. The wood is going to warp over time regardless but with additional support top and bottom, they would be useable for years and then easily rebuilt. Nice rock garden. Stay safe.
Thanks for the great video! I made one this weekend with some help from my son.
I used the excellent plans you have available.
Looks amazing!
That’s awesome!
•walks to walmart and gets a pot•
"extremely simple to build" "you don't need many tools at all" yeah okay bud
awesome … really great DIY and you are really inspire me...
Master Gardner, GREAT PROGRAM!!!! My dad was a primary organizer and instructor, he was a University of Idaho County Extension Educator and my mother was a "Master" Master Gardner and one of the 1st one's in our area. One suggestion for angle iron is to break down an old metal bed frame, which you can get pretty cheap at thrift stores or just find free, and you have a very inexpensive building material. Lastly, my personal recommendation is to use a higher grade weed fabric instead of plastic. But that's just me. Nice build!
Perhaps I am not the viewer you are going for, however, it would have been wonderful to see you build the second one with only the Miter Saw and Drill. Currently it is just unrealistic with my available equipment to follow your outlined steps.
"DIY"
yeah, if you have a workshop with tens of thousands of dollars of tools and equipment.
That orbital sander is £550 here in the UK! 🤯 (of course you can get cheaper sanders... just never realised festool were insanely expensive).
The famous Deby Brooke! Awesome job Johnny, simple yet very nice way to add color, texture and separation to any space.
Thanks! It definitely adds a lot more nature to our rocky back patio.
Very nice!! now I'll go to look for videos that show me how to DIY a nice wood planter that does not need so much sophisticated tools.
DIY? sure if you have every carpentry tool available to man.
Too much tools to be DIY project
What is considered a DIY project to you then? You can forgo the metal legs and be able to build this with a hand saw, and a screwdriver if you wanted to.
Skip the metal legs: you need saw and a hammer,
To get it better quality with less effort a handdrill and a miter box - if you have a fancy electric drill and willing to get metal legs cut in length you can add the holes your own
To make it faster you can use tablesaw/mitersaw, nail gun, stapler ejc
Even the metal legs aren't an issue using a $30 angle grinder and a cutting disc. If you have the tools he has, use them. If not, there are other ways to cut and drill that don't require this level of tools. It will just take you longer to accomplish.
I like the method you use to narrate the video. You stick to the facts and tips of the project.
So cool to see the process of making these!
Simple to build? You used probably $2000 worth of equipment to build all this
Not even close. A few hundred if you buy a chop saw.
A decent miter saw isn't that expensive ( $200 12" Dewalt) and you can easily use a power drill to drill the holes vs. a drill press. Also, use a $30 angle grinder with cutting disc to cut through the angle iron rather than a chop saw. Even if you were to get all of this, you could still get by for about $500 at Harbor Freight.
Do you really think this is a DIY? i dont think so
Good luck
Just finished this. It was easy but I had to improvise a little as I didn’t have all the tools. But very easy and the results came out amazingly.
These people love to complain about the tools but it really is a pretty basic build. Glad it worked out for you!
@@craftedworkshop It's like people watch your videos with the sound muted and don't hear lines like "I cut this on my metal chop saw, but you could also use aluminum and an angle grinder".
Just found this channel and I love what you're doing! Just started going to UNC Asheville myself and am loving the area.
Thanks a lot, and that’s great! Follow me on Instagram, I do meetups from time to time and announce them there.
Muito lindo e funcional!
e was equipped with tools that were too full for work and arranged very neatly, I really enjoyed his work.
What talent! I love these!
Awesome video. Well articulated and a very smooth step by step. The boxes look amazing. Great job.
Thanks a lot!
Sweet planters, your mom slayed those plants man, looks amazing
Thanks, she did a great job!
This is so simply beautiful
Muy bonito!!!..saludos from Chile
Beautiful flower bed and beautiful plants from mom. Thanks for the nice video
They look great
Thanks!
Nice looking raised planter box's Johnny! Thanks for sharing the video with us.😎👍JP
Thanks man!
