Cedar Planter Stand

Watch me make this cedar planter stand. This stand is 24" tall, 48" long, and 24" wide. It can easily be changed to any dimensions. my most common sizes I've made is 16", 24" or 36" tall, 24",36" or 48" long, and usually 24" wide. I keep an eye out for damaged lumber anytime I'm in the big box stores or at my local lumber yard. I'm not great at drawing plans so bare with me. Thanks for taking a look. I have a few other planters i build every year to sell during spring. Keeps me busy and out of trouble.

It is not DIY, it is professional, you had lots of cool toys which made the job look easy but it very good.

[@garagesaws5729]

All my toys are purchased one at a time. Everything was paid for from jobs or projects I've done. I just recently bought a laser engraver. It will pay for its self eventually. Thank you for the comment and for taking a peek.

[@willbephore3086]

Starting with the plans and specs is so helpful, thank you! I don't know why everyone doesn't do that but seeing it like that from the start makes a huge difference. Also I'm gonna have to find your video of making that bench, thats epic.

[@garagesaws5729]

lol. Well no video of the bench however I do plan to remake it. It was supposed to have drawers and stuff. Eventually I found that I had plastic bins that fit the slide area. As far as plans go yes. I hate sifting through videos looking for the info I need. Thanks for the comment.

[@willbephore3086]

@@garagesaws5729 hey whatever works, works. Bins could actually be more functional than drawers in some cases for their mobility. And yeah, exactly, with the sifting through videos. D: Thanks for making it easier on us out here.

[@barnegatbaywoodworks8728]

I like that you show the entire build…nice job thanks for posting

[@garagesaws5729]

Thanks. Its hard to take a ton of video and mash it up but ill keep trying.

[@willbephore3086]

@@garagesaws5729 it's way more work than most people realize, to think through and present info and process, let alone capturing good angles, supplies, oversight shots, detail shots, etc. While keeping your own work flow going right lol. THEN after all that, editing all the footage into a cohesive video. Keep up the good work, much appreciated.

[@garagesaws5729]

My pleasure. It's such a double-edged sword making videos. Some folks want short and sweet. When I watch videos, there always seem to be missed steps that I don't quite get. Thanks for watching.

[@websterbehrens7837]

AWESOME !!! The best built planter I've seen. Picked up materials today to begin build. Thanks for sharing.

[@garagesaws5729]

Awesome! Please give me feed back if you follow my build. Let me know what's confusing and what can be better. Maybe a certain part of the build need more video or less. Good luck and be safe.

[@brucenorton1548]

very nicely made, picked up materials and will begin to build after I unload the lumber and get the jig for drilling. A really good video and easy to follow along. I plan to put a cap on top of it to give it just a bit more finished look. great video, great design.

[@garagesaws5729]

Good stuff. I've been so busy lately I haven't had much time to build. Hoping to have a new video soon. Good luck on your build.

[@brucenorton1548]

@@garagesaws5729 it's all done the next day, slightly different than the one you made but the design is very similar.

[@garagesaws5729]

@@brucenorton1548 That's awesome! I have a few more I plan to make videos of. A few different shapes. Good stuff

[@daveryan7934]

You should make more videos! Nice build. Thank you for the lengths of board and dimensions.

[@garagesaws5729]

Thank you. I have so much recorded. The editing is the hardest part. Hopefully, I will have more out soon. I've since built a small shop. I hope it will make things even better.

[@peterbonifacio3288]

Very good and simple video for a cedar plant. Congratulations!

[@garagesaws5729]

Awesome thank you. Building planters is my favorite.

[@antoniorsoftware]

Planter looks great and video editing was great too.

[@garagesaws5729]

Thanks. Video editing is the bottle neck. I have a few more things that are complete. Ive got all the video but have been trying to find a good editing program to really invest some time in. Ive got a project i'm hoping to have complete and ready to share soon. Thanks for commenting. Ive got a new job thats had me busy since the 1st of the year.

[@Patriotalliance]

That was a great job, thanks for the post.

[@garagesaws5729]

You are very welcome. I've been pretty busy in my day job but hopefully some new projects soon.

[@renabrown851]

Love it 👍

[@AllenOxendine]

Nice work, thanks for sharing

[@larrybakken]

I think I’ll try one

[@BadRussian77]

Looks great.

[@garagesaws5729]

Thank you. This year I didnt get to make too many. Got a new job and lives been crazy.

that shit 🗣HARDDDD ‼️‼️‼️

[@Gmoneygrip1960]

"Or finish it" you sound like me! Lol

[@mrmyblessednest1722]

Have never heard the “refinishing tool” you’re using 5:43

[@mrmyblessednest1722]

13:03 is your table saw the 7491RS? If so, how do you like it? I just bought one and haven’t put it together yet!

[@mrmyblessednest1722]

11:07 no glue? Just brads and screws?

[@ronbailey4372]

Did you find that the 5/8 fence pickets in the bottom was strong enough to support the soil (approx 10 inches) you put into the planter box?

[@jasonyoung8584]

Is there a video on how to build a flip work table for the miter saw? I was thinking building a flip table for my table saw.

[@garagesaws5729]

I do not. I was shooting from the hip. I would have done so many things differently, but it did serve its purpose well. I recently built a shop which isn't finished. I incorporated my flip-up table into the wall. So now it is attached but can still flip up and down. I'll see if I can put together a small video. I've got tons of things recorded that need to be edited. Thanks for the comment. Perhaps I can build a new one and record as I go.

[@robertkattner1997]

Make sure to paint with wood preservative.

[@garagesaws5729]

Actually I don't paint or stain anything. When I first started making stuff to sell I found too many people have their own taste in what looks good. I let them paint or stain. Also I have too many that didn't buy because something was stained or I had utilized pressure treated lumber. It easy to avoid it all. I make everything with untreated cedar. Every now and then I use pressure treated for the legs but make sure its not going to come into contact with soil.

[@williamparker917]

Nice build, wood glue would make it stronger.

[@garagesaws5729]

Great suggestion!
