- In this tutorial I show you how to build a planter box, to hang off of a deck railing, made out of Cedar and steel. I needed a place close to the kitchen to keep all of my Basil that I grew from last year's seeds.

simple straightforward and very well made - i'll be making 3 or 4 baskets like these Thanks for the guidance!
I've used frame strapping bent into shape to hang home-built boxes. Works nice and has lots of holes already. I paint it so it doesn't look like galvanized strapping.
Love it. Easy, inexpensive and quick to make. Thanks!
Very cool! Mmmmmm, basil!
Make Something Thanks David! Nice speakers by the way, really cool project.
Just what I was looking for!
Very creative. Great job!
Nice quick project
Fantastic idea!!!!!!!!
This turned out great! Thank you for sharing! New sub look forward to seeing more of your videos!
Great video! Helped me out as I am a beginner !!
Nice and easy! Good job..
Very well done, thanks for sharing it.
You are very welcome!
Nice job!
Well, this is the first video I've seen of yours. It was great. I can't make the project at all myself, but I thought everything was great in it. The instruction was easy enough for a beginner, the editing was just the right amount of pace to help me understand as a beginner, but I can see I would enjoy your instruction even as I grew in skill. Cheers!
I like the way it was hung. We are using old wood cd storage racks and wondered how to hang them .
so cool! I'm going to make one.
Really good video and project, Will! Oh and I love basil :)
Thanks! I love Basil, especially right now with really good homegrown tomatoes.
Oh man...now I'm hungry!
i like your work
Nice work man!
thanks Wilf! How's that guitar build coming along?
Wm. Walker Co. That's ok! Well I planned it all out, but Ive actually been planning a bit of a youtube show that will be a better use of time, and will be very fun to make and will involve more people and put to use my collection of inspiring youtube videos or whatever inspirational stuff of people making stuff! Aim very high, and then rein back your ideas so they are more practical, I say. Here's a photo of the guitar I would have made though! facebook.com/bodgefabrications/photos/a.664182066964379.1073741828.664140546968531/846848138697770/?type=1&theater
Great video as always man! Keep it up!
The College Woodworker thank ya kindly!
well done
Awesome! I realy like it, already found some wood that can fit well this project needs so effects you will see soon :) I do not know why i found your chanel that late!
+Radosław Rzepka Thanks for watching!
That's a ton of basil! Pesto party at your place!
Yeah I surprised myself with Basil that year. I didn't expect ALL of the seeds to take!
Thanks!
Very nice video, too bad that I don't have all those tools to make my own 😩
I did a similar project for my apartment a short time ago. Except it has solid walls to put the plants in the box directly instead of pots. I also used screws to support everything instead of glue and nails. I'm curious how this will hold up over the long run but it looks great.
It still seems to be holding up. The steel is rusted like I anticipated but the cedar and joints are still solid. It still holds potted plants. Did you use glue with your screws? I'm a belt and suspenders kinda guy.
I like what you did but I feel the weight of your plants dependent on 4 screws might not be so cool. Maybe should have had them bend underneath? Just a thought
Great project idea and video! On a safety note: I suggest your viewers clamp those metal bars when drilling them. Doing so without is a great way to get hurt, especially on a drill press.
+tfossum11 thank you! And fair enough. I should probably put a disclaimer somewhere.
what type table saw? brand and size?
+Fish Channel Grizzly 1023 RLWX 10" cabinet saw
Why the tapered box if it is hanging on a straight rail?
Why not? A) I liked how it looked, aesthetically, and B) It saved on materials since I was using leftover stock and didn't have a whole lot left. You could certainly make it square if you like though.
Because it looks much prettier?🤔💁🏻
seems a tad heavy relative to the support. may want to add a 3rd support down the middle.
Not a bad idea, but its been holding up fine over the years so far.
@@wmwalkerco very nice to hear! Might use a similar design for my windows since I want to avoid drilling too much
How long do you think this will last? You’re screwing in from the top. With water and weather won’t the screws come out in a few years?
Since I used cedar they should hold up. It's been a few years and they are still holding up great
Isn't that table saw supposed to be fitted with a guard to ensure easy clean-up?
We dont all have random steel lying around...
They sell this at Lowe's, Home Depot, tractor Supply, Rural King, most hardware stores... in the US at least. This isn't a specialty material you'd need to find at a welding shop or metal supplier.
Kind of small, kind of complicated. Trapazoids?
This and similar plans can be found on the Stodoys website.
Perfect!
Ok, if you want to show off your expensive tools.
+Peter Hemm I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not. I thought this was pretty entry level stuff.
This project is only for pros , too many tools required ,don’t have all those tools 👎
Woodglut has a lot of plans to choose from.
