Sorted them out onto a cart Let them look and mark They were happy to get rid of them. They did not have to sort them. Saved them work.

After building one of these from the plans from your website, I have a couple of suggestions. On board three flip the placement of parts c and e with part I. This way a person can set the table saw and cut all remaining pickets to 2 inches wide with the last piece being 1 1/2 inch wide. Let I and H at 1 1/2 inch wide instead of 1 1/4 inch wide. The 1/4 inch does not make much difference and will add a little more support as the base. This also allows you to not have to reset the table saw to run these pieces through a second time

I bought these plans, never supported someone else or used Etsy before but I feel inspired to just get to work, stop complaining, get something done and do it properly to make money, learn and maybe finally get my fire going again!

I'm new at wood working. I am almost finished with this flower box. I learned a lot (in other words I made several mistakes! Haha!) One of the most frustrating things for me is that both of my drills (1 powered and 1 battery) were too tall to fit inside to drill the final boards on. I will now go buy a right angle drill attachment for the next one (unless there is a better/alternate solution.) For other beginners, I will list my mistakes so you won't have to make the same ones. First, I cut the piece lengths before ripping so I ran out of wood and needed another board. Then I drilled the screws in a little too far so they came out the other side. Two other issues were just me learning to use my new pocket hole jig and also the fact that the safety guard on my table saw wouldn't let me set the fence to cut a piece smaller than 1 1/2 inches wide. This is a great project for a beginner! Thanks for the video and plans!!

Juan 3:16 RVR1960 La paga del pecado es muerte (infierno) pero Cristo pagó nuestra deuda en la cruz para nuestra salvacion!

I'm a decking contractor and make good money when I have work. In the winter I thought it might be a good idea to make large and small garden boxes. Last spring my buddy made them and was making comparatively the same profit I was for surprisingly less work. Most people want large garden boxes not small planters but having a variety helps business. My $15/hr employee can make these boxes and I'm still making money with jigs. As long as you have an assembly process production speeds up. No way a noob with a saw and drill can make money on just planters.

@ronj16022 жыл бұрын
don't do the compound miters on the top trim. After you get the side framework assembled, and before you attach the side boards to the inside, run the top and bottom thru your table saw with the blade tilted to 7 degrees, that way you can build the top trim piece with only 45 degree miters. Just make sure you cut the bevels the right way so that the long part of the bevel is to the outside of the box on the top and inside on the bottom. Cutting the bottoms also make it sit nice and flat on the surface.

Alright! I made one of these. It looks incredible. Notes: I needed 4 6ft pickets. I was just a tad bit short with 3. If i got the 8 foot one then I would have been good.... might've gotten more difficult to transport in my car though. I used the Kreg 1 1/4 outdoor blue coat screws. But I wonder it it truly matters. Admittedly, this took me many hours to build. But i wasnt too concerned as I was setting up jigs and such. Those Kreg pocket hole systems are nice. I am using the old one that clamps on with the Kreg face clamp. I believe having one of the newer types would have reduced build time. At the Orgage store near me, 6ft pressure treat pickets were $4.60 CAD each which is $3.40 USD. So my planter cost is definitely more. This MicroPro Sienna Treated Wood is very WET. I obviously didnt wait for it to dry....but I do wonder what it will look like and how the connections hold up as it dries. The hardest part for me was actually the trim. Bevels and mitres boggle my coconut. I just can't visualize how it works.... I literally have to make the dang thing to figure out how they fit together. Questions for anyone that made this: My fence pickets had roundovers along the edges....did yall cut those off? I figured it was a necessary step. Lastly, thank you Matthew for this wonderful design and for encouraging people to create beautiful things.

About fifty years ago I did work similar to this. Nearly all of my work was on demand. A lot of mill & case (cabinetry). I was usually running 18 months behind, so there was plenty of work. I was always concerned because I wasn’t making enough money, but then my billing schedule was terrible. I was priced way too low. Then one day it dawned on me… I was building a house for cash. I drove a Porsche. In the spring of 1980 I had planned to start construction on a 25 foot fiberglass sailboat. Yes, I was making more money than I realized, and I got to be my own boss! I hope this encourages people who want to be their own boss, and make “smalls” for a living. HOWEVER…

Was my exact thought when he started putting the wall boards in. I can understand for the frame, however using a little titebond III and some brad nails on the wall boards would save you all those screws AND a ton to time and if this is a production thing both of those two things are extremely important in profitability.

I don't know his personal reason but for wood projects that will have water I use screws for expansion and shrinking of the pieces.

@theoriginalmonstermaker2 жыл бұрын
Neither Brad nails or glue (even titebond 3) hold up to the weather very well. Especially if you'll be moving these around w weight in them (into shed for winter?) or anything like that. If I was making them for my house I may still use nails just for simplicity and speed, but that's bc I could easily repair them if smthn happened. But if you're giving them a gifts preventing falling apart in a couple seasons is prolly worth the extra 5 bucks. Also, the screws are much better w permitting wood movement in changing humidity of outdoors AND the wall board being screwed to all 4 perimeter boards also strengthens the panel. In fact, if you wanted to save screws you'd probably be better off only using 1 pocket screw on each side of top and bottom rail, then 5 regular 1in deck screws (2 top 2 bottom 1 side) in the wall boards to secure everything tgthr... at least that's what I did. ... if you really want to go cheapest possible, you can even use drywall screws in the wall boards (since there won't be much shear force against them). And even though pocket hole tutorial on KZbin warns against regular screws in pocket holes, IF you gear down your drill and are VERY careful not to over drive and split wood, you can get away w deck screws there too. Therefore, CHEAPEST YET MODERATELY EFFECTIVE SCREW OPTION = 28 x 1 inch drywall screws (20 for wall boards and 8 for top trim) and 32 x 1 1/4 deck screws (4 x4 for each panel assembly, plus 16 for attachment of B to A [4 down each side]) *if purchasing in 500 screw containers, that likely works out to 2 or 3 dollars total. Not bad. ... to bad in my area the wood is almost $30 : /

@frankirven253 Жыл бұрын
I built 2 to begin with. It went okay. Finding inconsistency in the thickness of the pickets is causing problems with the screw going through the face. And or splitting the board. I purchased enough wood to make 20 units. After spending over half an hour picking through the pallet of wood to find halfway decent boards that weren't super warped or naughty. Most of them were still too warped to safely send through the table saw. I would definitely recommend letting the Wood dry before you start cutting for at least 3 days. Also you're working with treated wood. It's only supposed to be handled with gloves. These boards are treated with toxic chemicals that allows the wood to be weather resistant for 15 to 30 years. So I would also wear a dust mask even if you have great dust collecting system. Day 2 Now probably cut through a couple thousand feet of board. And drilled 720 holes. I have one assembled. Hoping the rest go quicker as I perfect my process. But now I'm thinking even if I can get 50 bucks a piece which I doubt that. You're Only talking about $1,000. The price of wood and electricity wear and tear on tools. Plus screws and Brad nails and glue. I'm thinking I might get a job at Piggly wiggly. However I'm still going to try. Also do not burn the scraps. They are treated. The manufacturer says not to. But cedar would be okay. So if you spend the extra money on cedar And can't sell them at least know you can burn them.

Made my first planter with your plans (video and parts list). Made a big mistake right off the bat. Didn’t show up till later. Instead of just sanding the slates, I put them lightly (I thought) though the planner and jointer. Made them to thin (about 7/16”) for pocket screws and the walls not wide enough to fill the span between the legs. Still, it looks really good. First one will stay on my front porch. Had a bit of work figuring out the cutting layout but got there in the end. Plan to make more. Might try glue and nail gun once, see how it looks. I’ve also made a couple of your fan trellis. The jig works great. Thanks for all your ideas.
