Soo, last year I replaced a lot of wood on my deck, like 90% of it. Some pieces rotted, some just looking old, etc. Being who I am I didn't throw out any of the old wood. This spring my wife asked me if I could make her some planter boxes. Light bulb went off and I started wondering if the old wood from the deck I replaced last year could be used. Wifey told me about what size planter boxes she wanted. I spent about 2 days cutting up and trimming all the old wood. Let me tell you there is a lot of wood. I could probably make like 20 planter boxes. I wanted to get some ideas on how to make them and here I am. I'm super excited with your design ideas. I love making things from wood and best of all is all the wood was free!!!! Thanks for your ideas and tips. Off I go and I hope all goes well. Thank you! ;~))
I’ve made a couple dozen planters like your #5. After the first eight I added feet so there was a 2 inch air space between the box bottom and the deck it sat on. Without the feet water dripping rotted the deck even though it was treated lumber. The airspace lets the deck dry. Your five designs are elegant and simple to build. Thanks for the time you put into making the video.
I am a beginner to woodwork, the main test I have with this bundle th-cam.com/users/postUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz is that I think that its hard to settle on a choice of the plan and outline to use as there are a large portion of them there. Nonetheless, I like the simple stride to step directions laid out there.
A how to video in plastic lining would be great…the struggle is real 😂
Fantastic, I'm a total beginner but it looks like the ideal project to start . Planters are expensive. Thank you for a great video.
Always a good day when Woodshop Junkies shows up in my TH-cam feed!
As always, this genius will make things that others can rave it. Thank you kind Sir. Your sharing things, will bring us joy. Keep on doing it. We love it.
Simple but robust designs! Love it!
Perfect way to chill after a long day 🤗
I like the rustic look of your planters. Thanks for sharing 😃
Love your channel. You restore old machines, make your own tools, holders and stuff this is what people need not 100 grand worth of machines like some people do and say oh look this is easy. You show what its like for most people aquiring stuff along the way. Keep up the good work mate.
@7:14 perfect slide of final square. 10/10 , respect. You know how to do it
Nice job Jean I love the natural look of these 👌🏻
You're extremely talented thank for sharing may God bless you guys
Thanx for this. I made my own planters with these videos.
Very nice. Really like the second one with the adjustable floor.
The planters look great! I enjoyed the various approaches. And, I always appreciate the care and thought you put into the details, particularly the rationale for your approach and the order of operations.
i create recently one planter box similar like yours. It is insane how much stuff you can make from old pallets!
Great vid, I'm very much a beginner, and have made a few planters, but some of your design tips are inspired, will be copying a few for my next build :)
Dude ! I LOVE the videos .Thanks for sharing 👍. May God continue to bless you..
Love these box's! Coming to my garden soon.
Love them all.
All content is gratefully received mate.
Agree!
Lekker Afrikaans accent💪💪 lekker channel. Dankie.
I like the drilling jig.👍
Wow, so easy! I'll be doing #4
It makes me want to finish the ones I started building two years ago :D I like the way you made yours ! Thanks for the video, cheers :)
😅
Thank You for sharing .. they were ALL very nicely made and will be trying them out for sure, ALL OF THEM .. I have extra fence pickets around that I will be practicing on. Cedar planks are the best for planters in my opinion. ;) Thanks again, Subscriber for sure!
Pretty nice work, Jean! They look great! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
WOW!!! Looks great, I have NEVER built anything not even with legos. Your project looks simple enough but I’m below novice level.
You are a hero
!!que bonitos trabajos!! Maravillas de herramientas.cuidarlos es también darle vida, a todas las maravillas que se pueden hacer en madera. Saludos desde Argentina. Soy admiradora de las que están hechas a mano. Bendiciones y Dios te conserve.
That is some incredibly straight, smooth, not bowed, not bent, thick pallet wood you got there lol.
Truly amazing 👍👍
Thank you very much !!
Hello it's a great job, I suggest you add rops on either side of the planters, so that you can lift them they are full of soil. Cordially
It's easy to create size planters out of wood. I will try making a concrete plant pot. Thanks for your great idea
If you live in a humid climate like I do, be sure to use outdoor-rated glue, and stainless steel screws. Also good idea to leave gaps between the boards for expansion. It can also help to dip the ends of the feet in epoxy or one of the purpose-made sealers/hardeners to help prevent them from soaking up water from the ground/bricks/etc.
Just a note about outdoor screws. I have a wooden fence that I maintain myself. Original screws were various cheap screws that had chemical reactions with the wood to cause them to rot out where the screws were. After going on lumber sites I came to find out that the only screws that do not react to the wood are stainless steel screws so now that is all I use. My fence is getting old now. It has been up since around 2005. So it is (yes) 18 years old. After hand painting stain on that sucker over three times it is still in good shape except the post are leaning a bit most due to ground heave and the fact that the wood post were not properly preserved before installation and maybe because they are wood. I might still be able to salvage it by having a fence company come in and replace the post. The main thing I wanted to say was pay extra and get stainless steel screws. Your customers will thank you for it. It might be the key to getting repeat business. Contrary to popular belief customers still appreciate American quality. They sure will not get it from China.
Thanks 🙏🏾
Just wanted to comment on your videos. I don’t know what your background is, (engineering maybe) but your projects are extremely well designed and thought out. I have been a weekend wood worker since I was 14 in my dads shop and now I’m 61. Your vid’s have caused me to get back into my shop and create. Waiting to see the drill press plans come on the site. Thanks for all your work and effort. Great job on everything you do.
Thx Mark.
Truth. If an engineer, he made it really simple to understand.
I'm fortunate enough to have a place around the corner from me which sells 900mm x 900mm x 450mm pine crates for R30.00 each. That's like $1.66 for our international viewers.
After this season, I make a bit of a bonfire, and start afresh next year. 😂
Thank you for the video. This is a good example, but not everyone has a workshop in the back garden. Simple tool are preferable, like battery drill and handsaw, would be enough.
Nice!
I love local content
Nice one, bru! now I just need to find some freebie pallets to strip
1st thing, Great Idea! 2nd, why didn't you use a weed block material vs black plastic? 3rd, especially for taller planters and wider planters, you can put used milk jugs or any other non-toxic to plants plastic containers (ex: cat litter jugs). Cuts down on amount of potting soil needed to buy. Like this though! Good builds!
Baie nice bokse, sou defnitief die skroewe van binne kant af skroef dan sien met die al die skroef koppe nie, great channel
totally amazing video, I made a similar planter box but it is not as good as yours! Keep it up!
Keep it up boerewors
Just to put this out there, My Father of my Wife told me when building a flat surface with wood, make sure to orient the curves of so the high side is up and the edges are down. That allows the rain to flow through the grain and not pool at the peak of the curve of the grain, like shingles on a roof.
Looking at this image at 3:30, these are backward from rain fall. Water would be able to seep in through the grain pattern and settle at the vertex of that arc.
The end result is what can be see here at 6:10
Easy, cheap, and fast only if you already own all those tools. This is professional DIY and not for everyone who just owns a drill.
Great video! Do you make any holes for plastic what you put in?
Hi. Thanks for the videos? Where do you get the pallets wood? I have been looking in the Cape Town area, but not much luck.
Nice, but in my village, the Municipal self-government did the same method in the last spring. Today, all of them rotted, and need repairs. The water get in the wood next to the screews and nails.
More than ten years ago, i made a frame for a window from pine wood, for Mosquito net. I used Lacquer, before assembly and after assemby. The frame is still on the window.
Nice and easy work..good job

شكرا لك
Is there another video on installing the plastic liner? And is that or any kind of water sealer spray/roll on paint necessary? Thx.
i love south african accents. they're so jolly
I don't see anywhere you discuss the plastic liner
Nice planters, man.
Since they will last for nice couple years, my only sugestion is to use a wooden, wedged dowels instead of screws.
Blind holes, dowel with both ends notched with 90⁰ shift one to another, two little wedges per dowel. When assembled, dowel with wedges in notches, smeared with wood glue, goes in the holes and tap of a mallet will press wedges into notches, securing both boards together.
Of course it's way more work to do, more than simply masking the screws, but achiving only wooden construction is kind'a cool concept.
It's posible to get the plans of the planters. Thank you
As I am not a wood worker, it would be really great if it would be possible to buy some of these beautifully made boxes from you! Is this possible? I live in Randburg Johannesburg.
Nice work, just curious that first planter you made, guessing that was something like 180L internal volume?
Do you cut any drainage holes in the plastic?
after watching your video, i want a cordless drill now.
Hi, nice a job. How do you create a product drawings? Which apps? Thanks
May God bless you. I wish you would write the sizes on the screen or under the video
In practice does the glue make any difference at all?
❤
👍👍👍👍👍👍
What kind of Saw would you recommend for an absolute beginner , l am almost scared to use one?
Do you need drainage holes for these?
How do you handle water draining if using the plastic bag?
What about drainage out the bottom?
I can't get the directions or sizes using chrome with an Iphone and not very computer savoy. But would to do this .
What program is used for design?
Hi. Great videos and great ideas but your online ordering system and email do not seem to be working. Payment taken, but no plans supplied and correspondence goes unanswered. What's the story?
What's the size of the large square planter? What's the estimated cost on that one?
Whats the measurement of planks?
drainage a problem?
I rather liked the first one but then my Mrs said it looked like the waste bins at parks and now that's all I see😂
so all that effort and you don’t even think to mention the water proof membrane you used?
wow
I live in the US and I went to your website to find the plans but was unable to make the website work for me, just wondering if there is something I am doing wrong or is it on your end? But I love the builds.
Ill look into it. Thanks. May I ask, what browser you are using?
Got some issues too. Using chrome on an Android phone and am unable to scroll down on most pages (homepage works though). Some "view plans" buttons also don't work for me.
I am also using Chrome on an android phone.
I am working diligently to get these problems fixed.
@@WoodshopJunkies your shop link is actually "our-shop" but the main button for "view plans" is "shop". I believe that's the problem you're having.
What size of wood was that
👍🏴
Where online can you find the planter plans you used???
I am currently experiencing hosting issues with my website. I am working on getting it back up and running as soon as possible.
I have paid for 2 planter box plans using Paypal. I still haven't received an email with these. I have also sent an email asking what the time frame is from payment to delivery but have had no reply. Looking forward to receiving the plans soon.
What's the US $ conversion of $0,50?
What did you treat it with?
I would slap some stain and then finish it with polyurethane
I have to be the safety dude, always hold the piece that is between the blade and stop block!!
What is the danger of holding the way he did?
And if I understand you correctly, that would mean he should set the stop block on the left of the miter saw so he holds with his left hand & lowers the saw blade with his right?
The cutoff piece, loose, can move and get jambed between blade and fence. I can tell you how I know! So yes, stop block on the left side, hold cutoff piece with left hand. Think of a table saw, would you run a loose piece between blade and fence?
Great job! Cheap? Easy? Fast?.......Don't think so, what about the workplace and professionnel tooll......🤔🤔
I paid for plans and didnt get email whit plans and dont ansvering on email so is IT scam?
Same happened to me, never received any plans.
what about drainage? ....
At least his is mount to the table I gotta carry mine across the yard that shit sucks
Shop rebuild???
In the works. Just getting a few other projects out the way.
Hi guys, not sure this is the correct way to contact but I paid for some plans via PayPal 5 days ago, have sent a number of emails requesting said plans, no result as yet. Any chance I can get plans sent? Would be most grateful if you could assist me. Many thanks.
Hey, my apologies. Did you send your emails to admin@thewoodworkersplans.com? Remember to check your SPAM/JUNK folder. Sometimes the emails end up there.

Way off topic…Is that a Ball watch?

Use pond liner. That plastic will not last
