I followed this build about 2 years ago. Today bottom fell out because the long strips on the bottom weren't heavy duty enough. Either not enough screws, not enough glue, or even the wrong kind of screws maybe. I checked the other 2 I built and they are also about to fail. So make sure you really beef up the bottom end of this build. Side note. We also got an absolutely crazy amount of heavy rain yesterday.
I'm going to salvage what I can and redo the bottom end with through bolts and a whole 2x4, not just a little strip. I hope this helps others. Again... no hate on this guy. It was likely my mistake somewhere and probably incorrect hardware for the application.
Great video. I watched it again. I needed to do more on the bottom end for sure.
While you're at it. Make a box for the center or the 8' long sides will bow out for sure. Not just saying.. I'm building this as we speak.
I'd think for something that big a 2x4 aligned flat against the walls should be a good ledger board for the floor, those little strips are definitely too thin for such a large and heavy box, and are the clear weak point.
This is THE BEST video I have ever seen on woodwork construction. The fast-forwards, the visual cuts, the precise narrative. Every second of my time watching was informative. Thankyou. And now I'm off to try to emulate what I've just seen.
This was so therapeutic. Thank you for the time and effort you put into this video for us.
simple yet sturdy and durable elevated garden bed. This would be immensely helpful for senior citizens like me. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful project.
This is an awesome project. My daughter and i built one in 2 days. Dont be surprised because it is MASSIVE like the description indicates. Thanks for a great set of plans. One more to build, maybe next week.
Thank you for this!! I love learning to build new things but I don't have the patience for very long videos. This was perfect:)
Perfect!! I'm building a couple of these, asap. Thanks.
As others have said, great editing. I appreciate the pace of the video as many youtubers tend to consider themselves as comedies and/or story tellers.
I've been seeing these raised garden beds and now I want to redesign my garden! Thanks for sharing!

Easy and fun build. There wasn't a cedar plank in sight in our town, so we built ours out of pine decking and treated it with Thompson's. It worked great.
Nice job. For guys like me that are getting older, doing raised beds are the only way to go.
I found your video as I was looking for ideas for this. I really like what you have built. BUT my favorite part was your kid putting the tractor toy in there.
Beautiful work! Looks really classy and clean!
Thanks for the video and the plans! I am inexperienced with woodworking, and I was able to knock this out in an afternoon with the help of a friend!
Did it thanks for the measurements it saved me a lot of time.!
One of my sons and I just finished building this for my wife for Mothers Day. Came out great. Super great directions and perfect materials list.
thank you!
Awesome. Email me a pic for my website if you want.
Nicely done,i like your design over mine.I used ptl plywood and framing material for box and frame.Then lined with 5/8 thick cedar and geo textile[Mom is happy to have new upright planter].thanks for the video.
Thanks for sharing this! I really appreciate you!
Pretty awesome , thanks for sharing!
I loved this. Great tutorial. I intend to produce three planter boxes exactly as this.
We want to see a follow up once you have it planted and growing!
As a woodshop worker this is so satisfying to watch 🤤
Excellent job. Thanks again for sharing
Nice project and family.
OMG! I remember the first box I built when I was 5 yrs old. I watched you build a box, and was so inspired, I showed it to the entire village. They were so inspired, they built a big box, and it is now our symbol of a higher power. We worship the box.
Lol
clear and straight to the point with some great editing made it a pleasure to watch, great info ...just wish i had the tools to make it as quick ..oh well hand tools it is
That was nice. Good job.
I like your design. It looks so much sturdier than the sub irrigated planter I built. Excited to see pictures of the plants you set here after some time 👍
If anyone is wondering how much soil this thing will take to fill. It is about 1 cubic yard. It is A LOT of soil! Great project, thanks!
Took me like 30 bags lol
You don't have to fill it all with soil. Use brush and stick etc on the bottom first
THATS THE REAL DEAL THANKYOU IM ACHIC THAT WANTS TO BUILD HER OWN I DONT HAVE ALL THOSE COOL TOOLS SO A MITER SAW WILL HAVE TO DO AND A DRILL AND A PENCIL
Thank you for keeping it to the point and simple play by play editing. "Not a whole lotta wacky going on" in this video. Zip zing done 👍 👍 🇨🇦
Thanks for sharing this! I built it for my wife’s bday.
Awesome instruction ez to follow!
I love this so much thankyouuuu !
Great build!
Nice looking garden bed!
Really well done video, thanks for the share!!
Thanks for the video! I'm going to try and do this with pallets for my grandmother so I don't go broke, and she's getting too old to weed her large garden
As a lady who doesn’t do wood work, I have to say it was very satisfying to watch your work. I am thinking of getting me some Ryobi tools since I see you own some and perhaps get into wood working. I like to build things. I have this small lawnmower for years and she is still running great. I love Ryobi products.
😂Fantastic been putting it off for weeks, lacking confidence but after watching your video I can't wait to get started before my babies die. Next year ill do from seed. No heat wave this year so hopefully not too much rain either. Loved your video and although I don't own any BIG BOY TOOLS I'm sure going to give it a try. Thank you , you literally might have saved an 83 yes youngs life!!
It's good that you're using whole whacks instead of three quarters or half whacks. Makes for a more sturdy, quality build...
Yeah, I was kinda wondering how many ounces of glue in a "wack". Or exactly how many screws make a "wack". LOL ;-) But I was comforted by noting that he is Canadian. He probably uses metric so I will not have to deal with 5/32 of a wack. ;-)
Really beautiful work, dude! And beautiful kids, congrats! 😊
Stay safe with your family! 🖖😊
excelente idea, muchas gracias por compartir, saludos
nice design! great work.
Building one right now. Great job and looks good to. Hi from downunder mate.
I just built one and my wife loved it! thanks for sharing!
Email me a pic and I'll share it on my website. If you'd like.
nice shop! iM JEALOUS!!
Great video straight to the point but easy to understand turned out beautifully....still can' get used to shorts and flip flops.....but hey it's your world so keep up the awesome building
Slight design flaw and a recommendation. Replace the 2x2s with 2x4s and put 4x4s behind the legs. This will help support the 800 lb of dirt for your garden. I made two of these and love them.
Great video! Thank you!
Social distancing is gonna make for so many diy builds videos. I know I'm going to finally make some of these with my free time, starting with your awesome pocket hole machine
"A whole whack" lol...Love it!
Well done and narrated video. Only thing I would change is the plastic which you noted. Weed fabric would probably be fine. You have yours over stone so you don’t want dirt falling through so plastic might be better for u.
Excellent design
Great job!
I just finished making this myself, first real woodworking project.
I do wish a little more time was spent on showing the dimensions of the boards and the final product as you were going along, but I respect that you wanted a snappy and quick video. Most of the information I needed was here and in the plans, though as a first project I had to learn a lot on my own (like how 1x6 boards are actually 0.75x5.5, as with the others). But it was fun that way: I only had one sawhorse and lots of clamps instead of the very nice looking table you have, definitely can see how an investment in that would save a whole lot of time on future projects.
Thanks for the video, it's allowed me to confidently make an actual garden for my apartment's patio, I'm very happy with how mine turned out :)
Awesome to hear. If u want send me a pic and ill post on my website under viewers submissions.
Nice job. Great video editing too. Straight to the point time laps
Very well executed! A follow up video to show us what you've got growing in that box would be interesting as well............. 😉😉👍👍🍄🍄🍄🍄👍👍
I don't know that I would do a follow up video but I will likely post pics on my instagram in the future.
@@DIYBuilds why didn't you use washers when attaching the legs?
I dont have those expensive tools, I'm gonna try to build this with pallet Woods, nails, hammer and hand saw.. Thanks for sharing this bro.. All the best...
Thanks, built one this weekend and love the plans. I don't have a table saw, so couldn't do the trim or ripping but all in all it came out great.
awesome, if you want email me a picture for my website.
Not only was the video very precis, but the best part was the kids playing in it...time for a sand box?
Awesome pokemon in the thumbnail! 🌱
Awesome well done. Hoping I can make this. Great videos
Cool build. Thanks for sharing. Also, the cameo by the two ninjas was funny.
Lovely kids~~ wow it looks stable and massive to plant. It would be nice to plant inside.
unit woodworking 👍🏻. That is what I was thinking for an indoor herb garden! ❤️.
@@70sstreetracergal61 Nice. Take care.
Great video. Appreciate the guidance for my wife’s birthday present!
This is the best I have seen so far.
Nice work Sir! 👍
I can't believe I'm saying these words, but it was oddly satisfying watching and hearing you drill holes lol
Absolutely love the methodology how you’ve approached this 👍🇬🇧
I need one of these ASAP💥💥
The Plastic Liner could cause Funal growth and such undesirables.
I use 2 layers of permeable Ground Cover which 'hang in there' for years.
Rain Water and Irrigation Sprinklers etc do cause the wood to get damp but it dries out quickly especially in Summer.
That's what I was thinking about fungal growth. The one I built (which didn't turn out very sturdy and why I'm here), I lined the bottom with hardware cloth and gardening fabric.
Very nice. Making one simular. BTW. Nice saw you have.
Thank you 😊
looks great
good idea and very good job
Jeez great job
Great video. Very easy to follow. The wife wants me to make one of these in next week. Love from Ireland. Thanks for the free plans
I’ve tried to google your clamp and glue bottle ? Do you have a link to them. I like the way you use the clamp for cutting your timbers 😍
If you go to my channel and look at the shop projects playlist the deep reach clamps are in there. My glue bottle is from Lee valley.
DIY Builds thank you. I’ve sucribed
This is a factory with so many equipment and tools!
No its my garage
Hello from chile...thanks you by video...
I love the instructions and I got the plan from your website. Unfortunately the only bummer is that 2inch screws driven into the feet connecting to the bed, the screws went straight through. Not sure if anyone else had this issue. I switched to 1 inch instead and it’s better. Still love the plan. Its beautiful on my patio
Looks quality
Nice and simple buddy
Very nice ☺🖒
Thanks!!!
Nice job, and very timely, as this is one of my next project.
I'm going to use 4x4 for the legs, because I already have them, but otherwise will follow your build.
I'm doin the same with the legs. Notched so the walls rest on the legs at the corner.
In the middle of building one myself Nice video and some useful tips.
Top notch🎉
NICE!
Gorgeous! Looks like the kiddos had something else in mind for this "garden box". LOL
Hi, thanks for this great video. Can I add large wheels to it to roll it around the lawn & concrete? I have to chase the sunshine 😓 And how about folding wire cage on a long edge and top to deter animals? Thanks so much!
Beautiful!!
Nice looking box th down fall is the plastic. Less bottom board use small square fencing stapled and use landscape or weed barrier to hold dirt in.
Great video! I'm going to get moving on this. Did you use the same kind of screws throughout the project? If so, what were they exactly?
If anything , I am the total OPPOSITE of a DIYer but after watching this over and over, I think I can do it !!! Just a few quick questions: are the legs strong enough as I was thinking 4X4 posts would be used. Also, should I try to level it before I put the dirt in?
Is "a whole whack" a technical term? Because it fits woodworking very well.
Nice build, I think your kids would have prefered that this would have been a raised sandbox for their trucks and other toys
Question...i want to build something similar this spring...is there a risk of wood split when using the pocket holes on the side board edges?
These are gorgeous. Though to be honest this is a bit too difficult for me! 😅 I don’t think I’ve ever built something before…
I’m building one right now with some small variations (tool limits): no brad nails, 1 1/2” x 1” x 6’ pine along the bottom to support the cross boards (hopefully it’s still thick enough), and won’t trim the piece to the corner legs so one side of the leg will be wider than the other. Other than that this has been an excellent general guide to follow. Thanks!
