- Hi everyone. I’ve been making some planters in the workshop this week, and these are a modern take on the traditional Versailles Planter, simply made from plywood and redwood, with off-the-shelf parts and simple tools; a router and a chop saw are useful, but not essential. Enjoy!

Brilliant jig for the grooving!
Thanks! 👍
History and wood work bloomin brilliant, nicely presented. If you could include motorbikes and sausage rolls I would need no other channel.
+c r Ooo! Sausage rolls - now you're talking 😂👍 Thanks!
Genius of the Versailles planters: the sides are removable to change dirt and trim the roots without removing the tree from the pot. Reason why some of those threes are more than an hundred years old...
Nice design Peter - thanks. I learn a lot from watching your approach to various tasks. Cheers
Good to hear - thanks!
one of the best channel
Thank you - be sure to tell your friends 😂👍
I would have to agree
Thank you!
The French certainly know how to do planters. I have done the grooving of ply many times to mimic lining boards. Works well. Nice video.
Sure does - and thanks! 👍
Ha ha, have been waiting in anticipation all week to see what you are going up with, love these planters can't wait to make a couple and sit them proudly outside my from door.
Thanks - no pressure then 😂 And I look forward to seeing pictures of the ones you make 👍
As ever your simple approach makes a complicated design look easy - I know having just completed similar with a lot more joinery. Will follow your ideas in future.
By the way, your raised panel doors with floating tenons (earlier video) are featuring throughout my house now!
Thanks - and great to hear about your doors too!
Just came across you from your new bandsaw video and for me just about to start my new business adventure working with wood. It's been a big learning boost watching your videos top marks from me. :-)
Thanks Stuart, and best of luck with he new venture 👍👍
You are handy with a jig.. I really like this one and also your jig from the trellis table build. Thanks for sharing.
+Gareth Dirlam Thanks! Jigs are well handy for repetitive stuff 👍
I appreciate the simple jig for the router. I get confused easily about how to use my router when it isn't on my router table. I end up just leaving it there but I feel like I'm missing out.
Hi Peter
Would you be willing to do a video on the Pinner/stapler. Thoughts, whether you think it’s worth the value etc.
Hi Alex. Yes, I have a nailer / stapler video planned 👍👍
Top video as ever. keep up the good work. Are you aware of ASMR? Your subscribers would go through the roof if you mentioned it in your titles! I'm already looking forward to part 2.
Great video and glad you were not hurt on that chamfer. For the 12 mm x 12 mm pieces on the back of the panels, is there a reason to not use the leftover 12mm plywood for that?
You could certainly give it a try. I’d be slightly leery of a 12mm square section of ply delaminating though, so I’d want to test it first. 👍
Great vid thank you Peter. Also what is the small mains electric pin nailer you are using fella ?
Cheers Craig. That’s a Maestri ME30 nailer/stapler. Solid piece of kit, and really compact 👍
I do feel that a slot for the plywood to sit in would have made the build a lot easier both to assemble and make. It does need a router jig or router table but since you already made one for the decorations in the plywood then why not make one for the two by twos :)
I always find it scary to tilt the miter saw(of course I don't have a kapex but still). I prefer to rotate it if possible. If the chamfer is thicker than the blade then you should be able to still use a stop block.
Good as always. I liked the tip of how to make perpendicular holes free hand.
+MrLovblad Thanks. I was trying to do this as simply as possible - a tracksaw or table saw (or a utility knife, come to that) could have made the decorative groove in the panels, and while e.g. a 1/4” router can do the v-groove, I wouldn’t want to use one to cut a 12 x ?? groove in redwood - lots of passes needs there! And once you have your groove, you need to watch out for it when you screw the rails together, plus issues of alignment e.g. if all the 2x2 isn’t identical etc.. etc.. In the end, this method is simple, needs basic equipment, and it works. 👍
@@10MinuteWorkshop Without router etc, what about using T&G boards, glued and pined to make the panels?
What is that electrical nailer you use?
Links are in the video description.👍 Maestri electric nailer - amzn.to/2pNm7ye (US: amzn.to/2pGMfuf)
From a gardner point, these are not meeting the objective of the original design. Fruit trees in pots need some maintenance below ground at the roots or the tree will decline after a couple of years. For that you need to be able to remove the panels and access the roots. Another consideration is heavy sand mix ( close to 100lbs for sqft) that the structure should be able to handle as the pot is moved around.
Few do. That’s why it’s titled “a modern take on...” The originals had metal frames so the wooden panels could be knocked out as needed.
@@10MinuteWorkshop some still make them with hinges where panels can be removed. They sell them for absurd sums (thousands). I was looking for DYI plans with wood that will hold up and removable side panels at 2-3 ft wide and 2 ft deep. I'll keep looking or try to figure it out.
Another very watchable video Peter...looks like you use an electric pin nailer, the one I have always leaves the nail head proud !!
...can you say what model you use?
Thanks
yewgoigo Thanks! It's a Maestri ME 606 - there's a link in the description above, along with all the tools featured in this video, and an extensive list of all the tools & gear used in the others. 👍
What is the Farrow and Ball colour that you are using?
It’s F&B Railings, #31, in an exterior eggshell. I’d always recommend F&B exterior eggshell over interior, even indoors, as it’s much easier to use, has much better flow and dries faster. 👍👍
Would there be a time you'd opt for a different glue when making outdoor pieces?
My go-to glue is Polyten PVA which is water-resistant; no good if you’re making boats, pretty great for everything else. I’ve used some PU adhesives, but polyten covers 99% of what I do. 👍👍
Another great project!!
Phil Smith Thanks!
"quickly, easily and cheaply"...needs a full woodwork studio and big tools.
I have a workshop with big tools, so of course I'm going to use them, but there's nothing here that you couldn't do on a workmate in your back garden - just apply some imagination.
