How to Make Modern Garden Planters
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 มิ.ย. 2024
- Watch me as I show you how I make modern garden planters that are a more substantial and lot cheaper than the ones you find in DIY shops and garden centres.
This type of project is perfect of the keen DIY'er as it is straight forward, doesn't require specialist tools and the result is useful and economical. The main principals involved can be modified very easily to custom made all shapes and sizes of planters to suit your property so have fun with it and ... Give It A Go!
Cutting list:
26 No. 395mm 38x63 (24 No. sides, 2 No. feet)
4 No. 357mm short edge / 485mm long edge - 45 deg mitre at each end (top)

As a new homeowner, and someone who dwells on the details, your content is incredibly useful. I watch a lot of TH-cam guides, and only yours makes me feel I could actually do it.
More please! :)
Thank you indeed. I try to make things clear so even I can understand them! Lots more of both big and small stuff coming - stay tuned!
Hahah the cucumber won!!! Great clear video. Feels like my dad showing me how to diy...memories
Thank you
I'm always impressed by your wide use of Hand clamps in many of your projects. Such a versatile tool and very under rated!
These are a great idea! The only thing I lacked to make these was the imagination. Love the layering / off set screws.
I love watching your videos, two things stand out, firstly you have a great deal of passion and secondly you work with a lot of pride..........keep it up.
Thank you so much!
Brilliant as always and I love your dry sense of humour. Looking forward to more videos. Thanks
I love the way you explain everything clearly
Thank you
This is amazing. I remember making one of these on a 6 week Carpentry course a few years back and I've still got the Planter in my Garden today. Because I really enjoyed Carpentry I've recently started doing a Level 1 Diploma Carpentry Course in College and its going great. 😊
Nice one!
Thanks Stuart i made these today and they look great, easy build and should last.
Great video, bought my first miter saw at the weekend and this was the first project I did. The out come was great 👍🏻.
Thanks for the idea 💡
Excellent!
Thanks Stewart for sharing this. Just made my patio more aesthetic! Lovely.
Nice one Kenneth
Brilliant job, I made and painted my potting bench and used Cuprinol shades 2 years now and it still looks great. I painted in doors and we couldn't smell any paint odour. So I think it would make a great bathroom paint.
Great instruction video. A pleasure to watch and good humour too. Thank you
What a wonderful project to do over a weekend, thank you 👍
You’re welcome 😊
Another cracking video! Discovered your channel the other day and am now binge watching everything. Love the ‘changing rooms’ style intro and your delivery too - relaxed, not pompous know-it-all like others. Thanks for all the tips!
Awesome! Thank you for your kind words!
Just found you, a really professional presentation, easy to follow and great projects. Thank you for your time and efforts in making these great videos, much appreciated and needless to say subscribed 😊👍
Well thank you very much. These are the types of comments that help me get out there again and do the same tomorrow - thank you.
Nice work great example of good work takes time not something you see very often nowdays
These look so good and well thought out, Stuart
Really like that design of planter - thank you!
Glad you like it!
Cuprinol Shades is briilliant. Just painted my 20 year old oak front door in urban slate, 3 coats in one day and it looks fantastic, better than my neighbours new plastic door.
I'm sure it is. My next video later this week will be a door build and fnished in the same paint so you will be interested to see.
These are great tutorial videos, I've just binge watched your channel, and now I'm inspired to start my own projects. Thank you from a new subscriber.
Thank you. Great stuff - enjoy DIY'ing
The planters look great, your guide is easy to follow and a pleasure to watch. I picked up a stack of cls timber today and will get to work on the planters this weekend. My only variation might be some handles below the top shelf. Seen the trellis, will be watching more, thanks.
Nicely done!
Might try this myself
Great video ...I added small casters to the bottom of mine, makes them easy to move around on a patio when i'm trying to clean it
That's a good idea! They are heavy once filled!
Expertly done Sir
Very nice planter build. You explain things properly and you have attention to detail. 👍👍👍😊
Thank you
What a beautifully pleasant 9mins of woodwork. Calm voice, no patronising, just good vibes all round.
I wonder if a primer prior to assembly would be an overkill ?
Oh and I've clikcked and ticked !
Big Sufi Love from up norf!
maybe a good idea to help protect the timber better. I have just finished putting up some cladding on my fake garage door and I painter all sides before fixing to give better protection - video out tomorrow!
Nice and heavy duty planters there. I used that colour to paint the planters in my garden and used the Iris blue for my shed. Great stuff 👍
Very nice!
Hahahah about the screwdriver - mixer comment… smooth delivery pal! Definitely the best planter design and tutorial I’ve seen. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks great content - right on time for the bank holiday weekend project!
Good luck!
this is fantastic and exactly what i was looking for. I have just made a built in wardrobe and have a load of 3x2 left over (alot, lol, dont know how as made a plan but hey ho) and was thinking of making a planter but needed an idea. Upon searching TH-cam yours was by far the best design! Glad you put the measurements in too and like that there is no wastage. thank you so much really helped us out. Browsed the rest of your channel quickly too, love it and have subscribed.
Thank you. I'm glad the planter build went well
After seeing the new trellis video, came back to watch this one again - weather coming up looks nice so will be giving it a go
Nice one Max!
beautiful modern planter box. i think i can do it and copy this one. thanks!
You can do it!
Wow amazing they look great and you made it look easy I’m going to have a go at making them thank you 🙏
Have fun!
That was a brilliant tutorial. Thank you.
Thanks
Excellent video and presentation; very professional build. Thanks for sharing
Thank you kindly!
Great vid.
Nice, straight forward design. Well explained. Thanks
Thank you
Thank you for the warning about those dangerous cucumbers. First thing I did was go into the fridge and throw mine out into the street!
New subscriber from an ex-pat in the US. Love your content and style, can't wait to binge on the rest.
Well thank you very much. I spent many years as an Expat in the Middle and Far East watching UK channels - very strange you are now doing the same with me! Welcome aboard
I often use proplex inside my raised beds to protect the wood, never thought of the plastic sheet. I suppose its like pond liner. I like the idea at the top of having a bead to wrap it over :) nice job
Wow❤ its amazing
I guess I'm an advanced DIYer, like yourself, so already got a fair idea on a lot of your stuff. But every day's a school day, and you've come out with loads of useful tips - would never have dreamt of folding the liner over a small batten - great idea which I'll be 'nicking'. Cheers
The more I know and practice, the more I realise that there is loads of tips and advice that I still haven't come across yet. Please take as much from my vids as poss and others
realy enjoyed the video, and also appreciate you providing the cutting list
Glad you liked it!
as a professional tradesman! .. i love wathcing your videos mate (Y) keep up the good work mate and keep the content coming
Well thank you very much!
You are one very likable guy....wished I had a friend or neighbor like you. Top work my friend 👍🥒
Thank you
Proper DIY like a cheap knot
I felt very brave today. Not only did I subscribe, I also liked your video! Bravery!!! Also, great content and thanks!
Welcome aboard! I only want the brave - you passed!
Looks awesome👍. I’m jealous of your workshop😁👏
It's taken many years to get one! Garage to workshop video part 1 published just now!
Well done from Atlanta, GA.
Thank you. Hello Atlanta!
As others have said, I'm pretty much racing through all of your content at the moment and adding almost every video to my "must try making at some point" playlist! Need to sort my "workshop" (garage) out first but once that's done, I think this will be my first project!
Great to hear you are enjoying them!
Great Video with a well thought of solution all round. Thanks
Thank you
Beautiful .. thanks a lot for sharing ..
No problem
British.. the best ..
Im from middle east.. history tells that you do things perfect
Nice neat work. Really impressed.
Thanks
Hi. That look brilliant. Nice job. Will have ago at making them myself. Cheers👍
Give it a go!
enjoying the videos. thank you
Good! Lots more to come!
Really enjoyed that. Subbed and will be making some of these!
Welcome aboard!
Nice job. I did pretty much the same thing, but a rectangular and with pallet wood.
Thanks
Thanks for the great video we are now the proud owners of 2 made to measure planters, the wife is very happy
Excellent! I'm glad to have helped
Excellent! I'm glad to have helped
Great little project 👍
Thanks 👍
Great informative video. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Great sharing .🙂👍
Thanks for visiting
In April 2021, I am going to need my next Covid relief check to buy those 2x4's for the planters. But a good design. Nice and easy.
Getting more expensive by the day!
Great easy to watch video and content.
Thank you
Just found your channel and subscribed :) I love these containers, will definitely be making some. Thank you :)
Thank you
For painting may I recommend the Wagner Universal Sprayer W 690 FLEXiO. It comes with 2 spray heads ideal for big and small jobs. The sprayer would ensure every crack and crevice is filled with paint and multiple courses can be achieved as the paint dries really quickly.
Really great video mate. Unless my maths is wrong, the only slight gotcha from having no timber at all is the wastage. You need 6 x 2.4m timbers. The last timber you only use a small amount so you end up with about a 2.2m offcut.
Great job!!!
Thank you
Looks good 👍
Thank you
Great job. 💪
Thank you
excellent tutorial, keep it up
Thanks a lot!
Brill as ever my friend 👍
Thank you
Brilliant!!!
Thanks
Nice job, well done
Thanks!
Great project and presentation. Not seen any of your vids before, now subscribed and will check previous vids 😀
Thank you
Excellent video
Thank you
These are awesome
Thank you
Just came across your channel. Great content 👍👍
Thank you
for the plastic lining, best bet is pond liner from Screwfix - Huge roll for £15 odd and it'll do 4-5 planters. Doesn't fade, crack, uv stable and is designed to deal with constantly wet environments. Fab vid.
Sounds like a good deal but I can't find it on their website
My missus will want ten of these 🙄🤣🤣 great video!
That will keep you busy!
Nice job Stuart 👏. 👍🏾up from me .
Thanks
Nice job
Thanks!
I love this, If only wood wasnt so expensive right now.
I know
I know 😭
Well done, and your design is exceptional! I'll be avoiding all future encounters with cucumbers per your caveat...
Thank you
Nice video, you've got yourself a new subscriber 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you
Dam cucumbers will get you each and every time.
Great video, recently discovered your channel and am racing through your content. Love the tip about folding the membrane to conceal the batons. It’s just such a shame you chose to plant those conifers in them!
The fold over tip reminds me of my mother sewing. I'm terribly sorry about the light green conifers from B&Q but they are cheap and available. I'll try to be better in future videos!!!
thanks loved this vid!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video
Thank you
PERFECCCCCT!
Brilliant. Any chance you were a teacher or trainer of some sort , very detailed explanation in short and simple words.
Proper indeed.
Thank you! No, I've been running construction sites for many years. I think it's the way my brain works - keep it simple and then even I can understand it!
Decided to make one of these as a first project, using the cls timber I have in the garage/new workshop. Being of a certain age, metric measurements are not second nature to me, and it wasn't till I started that I realised that what I have are lengths of 2x4, not 2x3, but cutting all the pieces on the chopsaw that I got for my birthday a couple of weeks ago was a doddle, and they all seem to fit together nicely. Just a shame I didn't have any screws that were long enough. 😄. Got to wait till tomorrow now, for a pack of 120mm screws to arrive from Amazon. Looking forward to finishing the project and am enjoying the videos, thanks Stuart.
Thanks. Thats OK it will come out 'extra chunky'!
Same paint for my shed. New sub. Wish people would avoid generic yt music. It's distracting from great content.
Never under estimate the cunning and savagery of common vegetables, especially cucumbers. Nasty little devils, cucumbers... great video, keep 'em coming mate. New subscriber here.
Exactly. Most people just don't understand!
Great video thanks - any reason you didn’t paint (seal) the inside to prevent moisture attacking from inside the gap between liner and wood?
Awesome. Just wondered what I can do with my 2x3 (8ft each). I got 8 left so will make some planters.
Perfect!
Thanks!
No problem
Price of wood at the moment i would have bolted them to the house lol
lol, brilliant
Too right
Brexit I’m in European imports everything’s going up
@@tracievans5019 UK prices are still cheaper than French though compare leroymoulin to homebase
@@tracievans5019 nowt to do with Brexit. It is deliberate to bleed us dry.
I've made some of these Stuart, thanks for the video and all the others on the channel - superb content. Can I ask what you used for the battens you fold the liner over? Did you buy pre-machined strip wood, or cut slivers using your band saw or circular saw?
Very nicely done and a wee bit unusual in the choice of timber and design. Certainly an easy build and even possible without any power tools. Quite expensive in materials mind you - despite your careful sizing to avoid waste. That said they look great once finished and with regular re-painting ought to last well. I am a recent sub and I am enjoying working my way back through your catalogue. Your videos are a good watch and the care you take with builds is impressive. All the best.
Thank you. Not the cheapest timber but I must say you do end up with a solid product! I didn't want something lightweight and looking cheap.
Damn cucumber. Cats've been trying to warn us about them for years. Did we listen??? NOOOoooo! 🥒🙀🥒
I'm a newbie to your channel & I loved your video - thanks! 🖐😷
Thank you
These are great videos, all of which will be put into practice shortly when the weather improves a bit. One question about the planters, you used CLS, why? That is about 3 time the price or PAR of similar size in my local merchant. Is there a specific reason for its use? Thanks and keep 'em coming.
