I run the marketing department of a software startup as my day job. I’ve always messed around with woodworking and wanted to take it a bit more seriously and maybe write off some tools and my shop. I decided to give the planter thing a shot, with my own USP and marketing flair. “Product market fit” is an understatement here. I did $5700 in sales my first week. Been waking up at 5AM and going to bed at 11PM to keep up with orders and my day job. Re-arranging my shop and likely hiring some help. You’re providing people with some life changing stuff my guy! If you ever want a guest to talk shop on marketing I’d be happy to join.
Thanks for the kind words buddy. WOW YOURE KILLIN IT! These cedar boards sure have changed my life financially, so I'm more than happy to share it with others to make the world a little brighter. :)
@lymangilly Are you guys hiring? I’m looking for an internship or my first job. I’m almost done with my AS in Software Development and am looking to get into the nitty gritty. Seriously inquiring. Woodworking is my hobby lol
I was about to comment the same, I really like him, sounds like a great guy, this is only the second video I've seen of his, I just found him the other day, I liked the way he asked for the subscribe button and the like button so I did both and now this video came up and wow it's super helpful plus I want to try to find that little chair he has for $60, I'm hoping I can find a video where he makes that one, it's tough without a table saw. 🙂
Trevor... I mean Aaron, you are the boss, sorry the Voss. You have a great attitude plus you share all of your building tips, etc for free. That kind of spirit is not common place these days and I very much appreciate all that you do!
Your smug answer to the shrinkage question had me cackling! That alone deserves a sub. Pair that with really awesome information and I am setting up all notifications! Thank you so much for all of the information you have provided.
Not a bad plan honestly. Its another reason I make the boxes in advance so the glue has a week or more to set up before they pile 3-4 of them into their car :P
😮 You literally gate keep nothing... nothing that I'm aware of! 😊 This is super helpful. This is my first time building planters but I am handy so I only messed one up! 😅 Everything is so easy to follow along and the free plans are great. I feel like a like and a share isn't a good enough thank you but Thank You!!!
Im a hobby woodworker and sell the raised planters at spring. I build about the same ones but with taller legs. Im going to build one or two of your bench ones. Great idea.
You are amazing! I love your energy and your wonderful attitude. Than you for all that you do! You have such an unselfish way that you do things. I really enjoy you and your wonderful projects. I can't tell you how refreshing you are! I am so happy that you are doing so well. Hats off to you and I wish you all the best. Keep up the great work! So much respect! 👍😎🌻
Awesome video…..ima 71 yr old crafter of all trades. But I love Wood…I don’t like shopping but ask me to go to Lowe’s, Menards or Homedepot and I’m running to the car.
Absolutely another fantastic video, Aaron. You are so generous sharing this and absolutely a great teacher. Wishing you all the success in all your endeavors. Take care ...
@@WhosTheVoss I have a motorhome and I make rustic wooden flags when I get bored at camping, I then give them away to the camp host or campers we meet. When I’m at home/basecamp I want to start making these planner boxes that you make eventually, not sure to sell them or gift them.
Hey Aaron thanks for your videos! I'm a beginner woodworker myself and sold some planters throughout last year and this year, haven't done any of your designs yet but I'll be trying the 7-picket long planter soon, your picket pricing sounds crazy up north, I'm in Texas and the most I pay for Cedar pickets is usually $2.35 per 6ft cedar picket
Aaron, I am a retired guy and your videos have given me a new spirit ! Your kindness in showing and sharing your work and plans have helped me to get off the couch and make things again. Thanks a bunch.
I brought in a sample to work and sold quite a few plus got custom orders. No one seemed aware there were tons available on marketplace so I managed to cut that out.
Thank you so much for your videos and free plans! I have been churning out your long box, with small tweaks, for over a month now and can barely keep up. I have learned so much about building from watching your videos as well as all the practice I’ve been getting with the planters. 😊
Dude. This is awesome. I’ve made a couple of your sets and created some plans in AutoCAD with the “Voss method”. Works great to maximize the lumber usage! 🤘🏼 thanks so much! Wanna buy some planters?!? 😂
Thank you so much for all your planter videos, especially this one. I am thinking about making a video similar to this one, but targeted to customers that has all of your tips on care and maintenance for these boxes after the sale. I don't want the customer to have a bad experience because they did something with the product that they shouldn't have. You are too good to us. Is there any place or way that we can throw some coin to you after we make some $$$ from making your stuff and selling it?
Do you run one side of your boards through a planer to get that clean look on the outside? All cedar pickets in my area have the fuzzies on all faces. Thanks for everything.
Great video and I appreciate your time. I was wondering what you use for software to edit your pictures or create your photos of your projects for resale ?
Great stuff Aaron, new subscriber here. Question, what percentage of material cost do you add on top for your selling price? Before any finish is put on of course.
I sell projects for material times 2x - 3x depending on how long it takes to complete. However, my planter boxes have fixed pricing since they don't cost that much to build
Thank you for all your videos and information. I have sold a few based on your plans. People love them! I do have a question. Do you plane or sand these down at all? And is it required to plane or sand them before you seal? Customers I have sold to don’t seem to mind the rough look of the cedar boards.
Nope, i leave them as they are. I also have a video about stain, seal and paint these, along with other answers, its in the Free Picket Planter playlist :)
Thanks for all the tips. I did notice that you dropped the price from your build video of the bench planter from $80 to $60. It this because it wasn’t selling at that price or another reason. Getting ready to post my planters on Facebook and just curious what effected the price. Awesome and very informative videos.
I mainly repeated the 16" height of the three picket planter after I dialed in the leg height for it. The taller planters I gauged a height in between the thresholds for accessibility for individuals in wheelchairs
@@WhosTheVoss Have you ever taken dimensions from different😀 pot sizes or allow for them. People ask me all the time if a certain gallon size will fit and now I'm wondering if I overlook that part. There are tables out there showing pot sizes verses gallon sizes and the 16" model seems to fit the common 5 gallon pot sizes. Although maybe there meant to be planters and just add the dirt and what you want and forget the pot (-:
Another great video Aaron! You’re a rockstar for sharing your free plans and tips and tricks with us!! Sp appreciated! I may need to consider cleaning out a storage space by next spring in my 12’x16’ shed for purchasing a full pallet of pickets. Talk to me about your thoughts on the Brad nails vs 1” exterior screws, simply time difference it would take to use the screws?
Brad nailer and glue is a lot quicker, and cheaper. Exterior screws are more noticeable and my OCD would make me measure out each one so they were equally spaced/centered. But it's an option :)
@WhosTheVoss Oh ok thank you for the Info. I appreciate the response. I heard you say that you don't read comments and didn't expect a reply. Love the videos.
I learned that after spraying a few. I batch spray a few orders at the same time. The charge is mainly for the time it takes to pull out the hose and clean the sprayer
This was some great information, thanks alot, much appreciated. The picket fences I buy from my hardware store are pine, what would you suggest finishing it with if i don't want it natural?
Thanks for the planter plans. Made a killing this spring so far! I have had a couple of customers who have asked me for kits. Do you have plans for making kits? If so can you make a video for that?
Hey John! I'm a middle school teacher and starting an urban gardening project to improve food security in our school neighborhood by hopefully building some planters that will be planted by my students and adopted by businesses in our community to make free produce available to anyone who is hungry. Wondering if you'd have special pricing if we bought several, and if your planters could be sold as kits that we could put together ourselves. This was the request I got.
Great video and entertaining. I just started watching your channel and I am a new subscriber. I just started selling on FB market place and was wondering when you make a sale locally do you give out your home address or do you make deliveries? Thank you and keep up the great job.
I give them my home address and I have a payment window where they drop in the cash and take their boxes, sounds shady but I don't know any criminals who plant flowers :P Ive only me two of the 40+ orders pucked up so far this year. Plus this way I dont have to try and schedule a time to meet and blah blah blah
I gave it a try, I sprayed each of the 3 picket boxes just fine, but had to let it catch up for the long box. Mines a battery powered pancake though 🤷♀️
Thanks for the plans. I have sold around 8 planter boxes based on your plan and am continuing to make them for sale. When i posted this on a woodworking forum i am being told that nails and glue is not sufficient because it will fall apart and in addition to whar i have done to reinforce with screws because your customers will call you back for repair. I have not added screws. Can you kindly let me know if you are having these issues and should i do something different?

I do this. Scotland uk. I write NO OFFERS in the first line of the advert and at rhe end. I still get asked if i will accept less. I used to have a very sarcastic response to these arse oles. But now i iust ignore them
Just sold a 3 picket planter and a long planter this weekend (first builds) for $120. I also sold a few other pieces (from another channel) for a total of $180 for the price of 14 pickets, nails and glue. Now my wife wants the hanging post planter ASAP. I did however miss the outside side brace on the long planter. Thanks for the plans and God Bless!
The video next week covers the outside brace on the long box; it was a mistake when I built the first couple boxes this year lol so i just did it to all of them
We're very lucky in Australia, growing season is all year round. Timber prices are very different $6 for a 72x4x⅝. Trying to field a reasonable price for here
I’ve been selling these for about a month and half and sold $19000 worth of planters. Thanks for the design it really helped my business get off the ground.
Great Video, Good info. One of my buddies has a fence company that builds new and does replacements. He brings his tear outs over saving him money from buying a dumpster to get rid of material. Now I have endless pickets. Mostly cedar since most people are replacing with vinyl. if anybody wants to make friends with their local fence company they literally throw this stuff away as trash. Happy picket hunting!
How much time does it take you to build like a 16x16 planter box? I charge $40 for mine in Tennessee. But my wood store is 30 minutes, and so I would spend about 2 hours just getting wood.
My wood is also 30 minutes away. My kia holds 30 pickets and thats what I bring home lol. It only takes about 20 minutes to bang one of these out once you've built a few of them :)

when you give the size of the boxes where are you measuring from?
Outside measurements, and include depth if necessary. It's better to say "16" than "15-5/8", so i round up to the nearest inch. :)
@@WhosTheVoss Thanks! so on the length and the width you are measuring the mitered top boards? Love the video's and info!!!
Curious if a little pancake compressor is good enough for a quick clear coat job, or if something larger is needed?
I gave it a try, I sprayed each of the 3 picket boxes just fine, but had to let it catch up for the long box. Mines a battery powered pancake though 🤷♀️

Picture is 46-5/8" for the mitered top. The video is wrong, I didnt catch it before uploading :P

My Lowes just has the pickets outback by the thousands...
THE THOUSANDS!! (gasp) letssss goooooo!
What kind of deal do you have with your local flower/plant shop? How are the profits split?
They receive a fixed commission for each box they sell, it's easier than doing percentages. I have three boxes featured there and vendor them weekly
i live outside of Chicago and havent started building yet. is it too late?

🤣🤣 picket fence planks are the pallet wood of the last decade 😂 still cheaper to use the pallet wood
😂 heck yeah!
And what kind of time do you need to take the pallets apart? Time is…
Mr. Garrison? Drugs are bad mmmmkkk
No kitty, that's my pot pie.
I do this. Scotland uk. I write NO OFFERS in the first line of the advert and at rhe end.
I still get asked if i will accept less.
I used to have a very sarcastic response to these arse oles. But now i iust ignore them
I like it! :)
Just sold a 3 picket planter and a long planter this weekend (first builds) for $120. I also sold a few other pieces (from another channel) for a total of $180 for the price of 14 pickets, nails and glue. Now my wife wants the hanging post planter ASAP. I did however miss the outside side brace on the long planter. Thanks for the plans and God Bless!
The video next week covers the outside brace on the long box; it was a mistake when I built the first couple boxes this year lol so i just did it to all of them
Hi, if you join 2 large planters with a bench type seat, it would make a great garden place to sit and relax and enjoy your view.
I like that idea :)
We're very lucky in Australia, growing season is all year round. Timber prices are very different $6 for a 72x4x⅝. Trying to field a reasonable price for here
Ouch, yeah that is a little high for a 4" wide board :P
I’ve been selling these for about a month and half and sold $19000 worth of planters. Thanks for the design it really helped my business get off the ground.
Heck yeah buddy! Great job!
What sprayer is that you found? I can't find a $15 sprayers anywhere. =)

I laughed way too hard at the “Nails and Glue” bit
Laughter is a good thing! 🤣
Great Video, Good info. One of my buddies has a fence company that builds new and does replacements. He brings his tear outs over saving him money from buying a dumpster to get rid of material. Now I have endless pickets. Mostly cedar since most people are replacing with vinyl. if anybody wants to make friends with their local fence company they literally throw this stuff away as trash. Happy picket hunting!
Unlimited picket planters! We bought the Valspar deck stain for our three year old greyed boxes and they look like new.
How much time does it take you to build like a 16x16 planter box? I charge $40 for mine in Tennessee. But my wood store is 30 minutes, and so I would spend about 2 hours just getting wood.
My wood is also 30 minutes away. My kia holds 30 pickets and thats what I bring home lol. It only takes about 20 minutes to bang one of these out once you've built a few of them :)
9:59 got you a like and subscribe! But for real, quality video - tons of useful tips, no filler, and I like your presentation style.
Thanks buddy :)
❤❤❤ your video and salesmanship, and to the point ..love your personality too!! Thanks for the info!!
Thanks Sylvia :)
Thank you for what you are doing. I would like to make a window planter. How easy would it be to to take the 46'' planter into a window planter.
Thats a pretty big window box, you'd be better off looking at the ladder-style planter Matthew Peach has and using a box that size :)
Thanks for the advice
