- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 มิ.ย. 2020
- What's Happening Everyone! In this video I build planter boxes for pressure treated 4x2 and 6x2 lumber. These are a simple build with a super strong construction. The design can be adapted to any size you can make them entirely from 4x2's if you want. I do not have a cutting list as you can make them to suit the space you have.

Check out my latest Hoop House/ Poly Poly Tunnel Planter here th-cam.com/video/-nz2Srik2hM/w-d-xo.html
I’m still watching for two reasons: you have a great voice, and you said it would be simple, with only a miter saw. You have my attention, and hopefully I’ll do your build. Back to the vid…
"Yes my legs are very white I'm a ginger-haired Irish man what other colour would they be, so lets crack on" Hahahaha XD
❤
Your legs are better than some I've seen! Great planters you've made!
Just bought my first Mitre saw. This will be my first project once the weather gets a bit warmer.
Great video
Everything you need to know and nothing you don't need to know.
A project that most people can make without needing ridiculously expensive tools like so many other you tubers who seem to forget their audience. New subscriber here 👍
Exactly
Maybe you weren't paying attention, (obviously)... he mentioned you could use other types of saws that could be used to include the hand saw for all of you unsuccessful, unskilled, low wage leftist viewers making ridiculous, unnecessary comments who no doubt also would have complained how long the video was because he did it as you poor, unsuccessfuls at life will have to do them, the rest of us who didn't make poor life choices, knows that electric saws are not "ridiculously expensive" at all, What happened to you two?
@@easygoing302 What happened to you in life for you to be so angry and bitter? Like WTF? I feel sad for you, must be hard getting through each day.
Very true!!
Yeah it is ridiculous, you start watching a DIY project and they use 30 tools in the first 3 minutes.
Great video. Easy to understand and follow along. Thank you for posting. I look forward to making mine soon. :-)
Thanks for watching!
Nice job❤🎉
The algorithms are scary! Had just said to wife I wanted to build planters all over front driveway. I've never had planter vids pop up before nor have I searched for them. This is perfect and perfectly timed out of the blue. Thanks!
google nest is listening to you...
@@copeyhagen4249 and your phone service provider, Amazon, Facebook, any app you download, your emails, text messages, your ISP, bank records, geographical data, and even your grocery rewards cards. But hey, at least we get relevant videos recommended to us 🤷♂️
I just searched planters and got here organically. It can happen!!
Great simple design and construction! You’ve inspired me to give it a go
Quality. Exactly what I'm needing to build for my garden.
Thanks for this! Great design and easy to build.
Fantastic project, brilliant craftsmanship and skill, loved it 👍👍
Thanks,simple design, but look amazing, thanks for sharing
I loved it I will be happily building this week end with the onslaught of spring next week
Very impressive, I am sure they will last for years.
I'm going to my Mothers this Thursday to turn an old shed into some planters and I am absolutely stealing this design.
More than welcome
I like those planting beds perfect
great stuff! Going to build these next week. Thanks for the video 🙌
Well done John great job.
Greetings from Germany. Now that the last of the snow is gone I can finally spend some time in the garden.
Love this! thanks for sharing John
THANK YOU! This is super easy and I appreciate your explanation. I will be building them very soon.
Very Nice John, love the way you construct them.
👍👍👍
Thank you once again Green for your tips and details, much appreciated.
What a great find and he’s from Ireland 🇮🇪🍻😎
Been building shelving and work benches like this for years. Simple but effective and very sturdy. Never thought of doing the herb and veggie garden boxes in the same manner… great idea. Built a couple today and made a corner unit to join them, turned out great.
Absolutely love the video; especially your teaching style. I'm getting ready to build several of these raised garden beds and your 'how to' video has definitely put me at ease.
Just what I’m looking for!
That is one quality product - well done JMc.
So glad my phone listened to me lately... Happy to see your build in my feed today. Ready for the summer project!! Cheers!!
Great video! You're very easy to listen to and the planters look awesome! I'll be building a few of these over the next couple of weeks! Thanks again!
Great video! Beautiful planters!! TY!!
Something extra to add based on two box planters I assembled, if you want to add a little airflow so the butted wood doesn't hold onto moisture, put a 1-2mm spacer between each slat. It will break up the look of the sides and add an interesting visual element while allowing the air to carry out any water between the wood. And if like me you built them to take a container they will add a few mm clearance for the top sleeves.
Do you have a rough diagram? I like the idea for my first EVER build.
Great video John thanks
very nice , thanks for sharing
Great video John. Well explained. They look great and quite sturdy. 👌👍
Absolutely fantastic!
Great stuff. Really thorough, helpful, easy to follow. I'm gonna use all of this and make a box just a bit shorter. Really appreciate the explanation of the design / gap for the 2 x 6 ends. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant. Loved the video, well explained. Planters look awesome. Thanks.
As an American hobbyist, I have debated switching to metric to make life easier. It would be a steep learning curve, no doubt. I am thoroughly impressed how fluid you are going back and forth between the two systems.
I liked your editing in this one. More showing along with the telling. They look great! Please show us an in-place picture on a video too... Instagram doesn't agree with my lifestyle. :) I hope you enjoy your beer. I like a cold stout after working in the shop, myself.
I'm a wheelchair user so obviously bending down to the ground to plant stuff isn't the easiest thing to do, unless, like me, you can get out of your chair and sit on the floor, raised flower beds like this are great for that situation, and they look good.
Thanks. Will do here in Canada. Very helpful.
Looks really nice!
I freakin love this guy. Awesome project, will be making two for the lady soon
Solid Gold!!!. No messing about - simple and Clever.
I know I am late to this party. I have planned on building planters for years. I just didn’t have the confidence, so I didn’t do it. I watched your video, and you gave me the confidence to have a go. I finished one yesterday. My daughter said “Did you do that?”. I am going to take that as a big compliment. Thanks John.
That's great! I'm really glad you found the video useful, keep on making!
That flat base really does help, my shed floor is up, down and all over the shop.
How is this Man getting thumbs down?? Great video. Really easy to follow instruction. Really well edited. Great honest Irish personality. 100% lad🇮🇪👍
I gave him a thumbs down because he is building these with endless money. People growing their own food to survive do not have endless money to purchase all that expensive wood to build these. This video is not for the average person. This video is for the rich people who probably don't really need to grow their own food in the first place. I hope that answered your question.
So because you can’t afford the project you down vote it? That has to be one of the dumbest reasons I have ever heard.
Some people make being idiots their full time job ! Or jealous, they have probably never built anything themselves. Armchair critics !
@@J_Chap “endless money “ this video demonstrates how to build a flower bed not to distinguish class or wealth..... you clown 🤡
@@J_Chap endless money??? So if I spend $200 at the lumberyard, that’s endless money? Wow. Thanks for the comment.
Nice work John. I just replaced stair stringers on my deck that were put in seven years ago. About 1/3 of the pressure treated lumber rotted because I never sealed it...big mistake. Your planters look great but I would paint them. I live in Massachusettes and the seasons can raise havoc on unsealed wood. I definitely like the job you did on the planters..
Great job!
These are perfect to make as my patio border! Thanks for the how-to-tutorial!
Glad you like them! check out my planters with the bench seat too!
Very nice as a beginner at woodworking your build is something that I would like to make for the yard, thanks for sharing.
Great design and build. These are great for keeping the rabbits out too.
Cracking idea... gonna give this a go myself I think
Great Build!!!!!
This is great! Thanks!
Thanks John these look so sturdy exactly what I’ve been looking for in a idea
No problem Adam. Glad it was useful.
Nice design! Thanks for the video!
Fab John, well done, can't wait to see them planted!!! :)
Brilliant John Thankyou Matey
Cheers John, built 2 using spare decking
Excellent job 🎉
Ty bud I made an 11 foot mitre station after your video works awesome going to give the planters a try keep it up
This one is the gangsta of diy flower beds. You rock. Your awesome. Stay safe
Just got through building 3 of these boxes love how they turned out. Thank you for sharing.
You are welcome!
Really nice when lumber prices come down I'm going to build them.
Thank you, very helpful.
I just got through building one without a bottom. I'm thinking of building another one. I been watching so many videos about building wood planters. This video is far the best, Thank you!
What a relaxing video. Gonna give this a go tomorrow!
Great job John. It really helped that you provided visuals AND explained as you went along. I can’t wait to get to work. Thanks again.
No problem glad it was useful
Thank You! I used your video to build the exact box yesterday. Even if I could post a pic, it'd be pointless - it's your box at my house ;-) Thanks again!
Glad I came across ur video that's my summer project for this year thanks for sharing.look forward to making with ur grand idea
Perfect for me to do ....thanks
Perfect for a house warming gift for family! Thank you for making me look good. I can put labor of love for family. 👍 New subscriber.
Update 5/1: Success! I did all the cutting in one evening; packed the car and roadtrip with just a few tools and screws. Built in hours and shared a beer! I'm sending U a beer. Cheers from New Mexico!
Excellent. This will give me inspiration to start my little project. Great job.
All in half a days work :) - looks awesome
Love this video. Thank you.
nice build. solid one and big.
Simple is best!
They look great will definitely make a couple for the patio. Will put a smile on the wife's face.
I built a 3ft x 6ft planter for my mother and she loves it!!! Thanks John
Really enjoy your channel. The tutorials are not too long and offer great, detailed information and instruction. Great stuff, thank you.
Glad you like them!
Nice! Gonna build one for mom tomorrow
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
You are welcome.
Fantastic lad, keep up the good work... I’ll send you Pictures’s when I build my one.
Thank you John.
Your video was helpful and informative.
Good to hear Michael
One of the simplest planter instructions I have seen for anovice like me. Great vid thanks
Thanks for that, made one for the missus, now all her friends want me to make them one.
Glad to help
Really like this, I'll be making them when it warms up a little. Thanks!
You are most welcome
great video and great project
Best DIY for planters I've seen yet. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Just built 3 today for school with 4x2 and 6x1 for walls. TH-cam has its uses. Thanks alot
Great job 👍🏻
Great video have made something very similar. I used urinal drains from screwfix in th uk. Put some gravel around them, work great for drainage.
Great video, exactly how I would have done it. 👍
Thanks. Really understand how to build these from this video. I will get to work.
You are welcome, glad it was helpful.
Thank you John, that'll be my summer project!
Glad it was useful Nicolas.
These look great might make myself one 😃
Made similar with decking boards but leg supports inside never thought of this design so simple and so much more professional you live and learn, however to save rot at feet small cuts of roofing felt.
