I love the fact that you do projects that are out of the ordinary and not repetitive. I can always count on seeing something here I’ve not quite seen anywhere else. This looks really nice!

[@DIYCreators]

Thank you! I appreciate the feedback.

[@jovaniferrer926]

My name is Jovani and I started my own woodworking business because of you, I would of never known how far I could take my skills if it wasn't for all of your motivating videos !!!! Thanks man 💯💯💯💯💯 stay tuned

[@DIYCreators]

Hey Jovani, that's so awesome to hear! Keep going my friend!

You doing KZbin videos? whats your channel if you are

[@patrickjames1080]

Love that - "your imagination sets the limitations" Glad your imagination has no limits! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@plantsandfish5512]

Best promotional add intertwined with the video I’ve ever seen. (And I spend a ridiculous amount of time on KZbin) Genius! I actually watched the add and know what you were promoting. Normally I just fast forward through the adds in other videos but the way you kept the video going while including the add. Very clever and beneficial for both the advertiser and viewer.

[@DrunkInPublic]

One of the few channels I have a alert setup for and click the moment it comes in….thanks for always being the best!!

[@DIYCreators]

I truly appreciate that!

[@salvadorsepulveda6415]

Been a while, great to see your craftsmanship and designs. Always enjoy your channel, thank you. Blessings

I like watching these types of videos, even though I don't have the equipment to make it, the easy instructions make me feel like I would be able to at a later date. Thanks 🤗

Glad you like them! Thanks

[@gt-c-]

D A M N...WHAT AN AMAZING PROJECT and how SKILLED YOU ARE ! Also...great way of presenting everything with voice over and fast forward when needed... BRAVO!

[@senitacustomwoodworks9878]

Nice, simple build that not only looks great; it's very functional with the electrical outlet. You could utilize a light fixture with the built-in dusk to dawn feature and eliminate the light switch. This is a great planter for those who live in any type of rental property because it's portable!

[@Craftlngo]

I like the minimalistic design of your planter. This could also be a nice addition for a balcony.

[@DIYCreators]

Absolutely! This is fitting for many spaces.

[@AM_Starfail]

Plugging the sponsor without obscuring your content is very much appreciated. Awesome project, I wouldn't have thought to use those clips to secure the composite decking; I always struggle trying to find ways to attach cladding without it looking terrible.

[@5minuteprojectideas]

Thank you for sharing. Your channel is inspirational. Keep up the good work.

[@DIYCreators]

Thans much!

[@tylerolivo9412]

Love this idea!!!! One little tid bit too make it a little better. Use the square edge for the top board and use a router bit to give you the connecting Grove on the bottom of that square board.

[@Gruv3451]

Fantastic idea. Thank You for making this....

[@DIYCreators]

You are welcome!

[@dennistinga24]

Great work brother... another well thought out idea

[@Oonagh72]

Damn! This is smart. Beginning to end. You could custom make a lamp that fits. If you put wheels on this and it isn’t hardwired it can be something you could move around. This could even work indoors.

[@DIYCreators]

Thanks, totally! This was just a starting point anything can be done!

[@coleve8596]

Nice build looks really good. Here in the UK it would be illegal. We are not allowed to mix socket outlets and lighting as they are rated differently. Lighting is rated 5amp and ring mains 15-30 amp. In your case if you had a fault on the lighting side it would not blow the circuit breaker. In your case we would use a 15amp ring main then install a spurred outlet with a 3amp fuse to run to the lighting. I think we are different because we are working with 240v which can be a killer if you get it wrong

[@jeffreyprice2982]

Genius Sir, pure genius!

[@lfcbpro]

Fantastic design and I love the way you showed how to build. I wouldn't worry too much about the miter joints, with expansion and contraction because of weather it is not going to be something noticeable. You could also use a solar powered light if the planter is somewhere you don't have an electrical source and also great for people like me who don't trust themselves with electrics :D

[@danwallis1984]

Thats real nice, i love that its so simple to put together. thanks for sharing.

Small tip for your 1/4” gap. If you use a speed square the thickness is 1/4”, that can be your spacer

[@DIYCreators]

Yep! I am aware of that one!

[@wylieramos]

Great DIY project. Thank for such great content and ideas for my new RET home.

[@TerryPotts-m6w]

Try smaller casters on the bottom to roll it to where you might want it . I got mine from . I got some from Sauder Outlet in Archbold , Ohio .

[@mrcead]

This is hot. I made a 5'X8' composite deck for holding trash cans, mail and packages to modern up a Philly style rowhome staircase - that sad empty side part people never seem to know what to do with so they just concrete over it. I bolted a lamp post to the deck but Ima do this instead, thanks for the inspiration!

[@johne.bender1654]

Dude, you make some bad-ass stuff. 👍

[@user-lt6oh2bu7c]

Your projects are really nice, and your presentation is so pleasant - you make this all work so well! I have two suggestions: you should not use those stab in the back connections for your wiring, as they are minimal in contact and often will vibrate out over time. On your miter corners you can try a carpenters trick where you burnish the edges together, rubbing with a screwdriver shaft usually works well. Practice with some scraps. I know it works well on trim, but I have not tried it on composites. Thanks for your encouraging and inspiring videos!
