Thanks for watching! THESE ARE THE BRAD NAILS I USE: amzn.to/3UPfLeC Don’t forget to subscribe for future videos. (There’s a tool list in the description)

I HAVE to thank you for tlalking and describing your project, INSTEAD of playing crap music and leaving it up to folks to GUESS at what you are doing. In fact, I appreciate THAT so much, I subbed you!!!!

Best video I have seen describing this process. Love how you mute the noise. Well done bro. Keep up the quality vids.

Thanks for the video. And super thanks for being one of the few KZfaqr woodworkers to reduce the volume on your video when running your saws and planer.

Nice Video, I would have put a 3/4 x 3/4 x11-3/4 runner on each of the bottom short sides to help support the floor. Maybe the weight of the planting might be too much weight for the brad nail without glue. That mean you would have to move the floor up by 3/4" to place the support runners in

I looked at the flower boxes at Lowe’s they were high price junk lol so I took the same design and you guessed it I have made 10 boxes lol

I tell you 40 dollars is a fair price for the time & effort for sure. I live in England. I wouldn’t get half that because people here think you should pay them to take them. They don’t appreciate what goes into the finish product. Thanks for showing your process.

TIP: Use CA glue in combination with the wood glue. The CA glue will help lock it in place (within 15 seconds). Then for consistency this will allow you to use your nail gun on the ‘inside’ only (therefore not seeing ‘any’ nail marks/holes). (Not required; just an added tip/benefit) You can use a bit of salt with the wood glue to preven slipping and movement.

Just found your channel and subscribed. Keep doing what you're doing.

Thank You for going through the process !! … Awesome Video

Looks great

pretty cool information! Thanks for sharing

Looks amazing and easy to build. Plan on building some this weekend. Thank you for the plans.

I would take one extra step and cut some squares of window screen material. Use the glue to place them over the holes on the inside of the box. This will help keep the soil in the box while still letting the excess water drain.

Thanks for the video. That is a great project and not too difficult to build. You did a great job explaining the build process. I look forward to seeing more of your projects. Take care and God bless. Rudy

Great video!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. ☺️

Great little business kudos

I subscribed, you do good work and you're easy to follow. I also downloaded the plans, gonna see if I can make a go of it here in Central Ohio.

awesome job and video,,,, keep up the great work,,,,

Nice project. Thank you!

Good video and fun project to make

Nice work

@WhosTheVoss really put us all on to these for the season huh! I've also made some pretty good coin as well and I like how you added the planner to hit one side. I "dust" mine with a simple piece of sandpaper to get that same result.

I’ve made a few of these planters myself. But I always end up over building them with extra supports underneath the bottom. And I use screws along with the nails and glue. My biggest fear is the planter will fall apart and the customer will spread the word about how it failed. Even though I tell them the planter is sitting outside in the weather. Now I mostly make them for friends and family. I like your videos and thanks.

Great video. Great explanation and very detailed. Thank you sir.

Thank you for a fresh look at a planter box! I like it. And I subscribed so let's keep the videos coming! Again, I definitely liked your fresh take on it.

Thanks brother

Pretty cool! Great job on the instruction part, well done!

Thank you for the detailed assembly instructions. I think I can do it.

Thanks

Thank you for a classy video! I have taken the measurements, which I'm sure won't be exact for the wood I use, but the proportions will be right. As someone else has said, thanks for not have loads of irrelevant commentary or music, just method and measurements; perfect! Just noticed the free plans - will use those! Thanks again.

Nice vedio, not only showing clear procedures but also how to marketing and sell.

Great video. I have subscribed looking forward to your builds.

Very well thought out how to video. You actually gave all measurements and how you cut and assembled. Subscribed for that fact. Thank you, and I am looking forward to more of your videos to pop up

Awesome! I might give this a try

This is so great! Your laid back vibe is also really refreshing. Thanks for sharing!

Great video. I subscribed. Looking forward to more.

Good job and project thx for sharing enjoyed it Keep building looks great God Bless

Love the way you presented this. So many other videos out there just blaze through the actual build portion and don't take their time to show you how to make something you can sell (or just keep if you don't want to make money!). Really appreciate the time you spent on this, and congrats on making some profit you can invest back into your craft!

Love it man

Thank you for sharing

Good video. I had purchased a bunch of pickets a little while ago for something i have been working on, so I made one when i got home from work today. It was a fun, quick build.

Thats cool. Im building upsome tools now.

Subscribed shared great video thanks for sharing, and great tutorial.

Thank you

Great job👌🏿

Love it!! Only suggestion I have is use stop-blocks to the miter-saw to speed up the process and also add accuracy. :)

Just came up on your videos. You make look easy and easy to follow. Thank you for your videos.

Nice build, great demonstration! Subbed and liked, looking forward to more of your stuff. Only thing I have to add, especially for the youngsters, is to make sure you're setting aside the proper amount for taxes. Where I live (in the US, different by state/municipality) that's about 21.2% after deducting trade/business expenses as allowed by the IRS. In my case that works out about 73% take home.

Sick video bro!

@SaltyWoodworking thanks for the idea. Overall it's a good design. However, as a gardener and a woodworker I will tell a better design is to use that last piece of wood to reinforce the bottom. The weight of wet soil is substantial. Cut some thin brace strips from that last board screw them inside the bottom flush with each side. This will give the boards something to rest on. Personally I hate brad nails. But to each their own. You need a few more drainage holes.

Thanks for the video. A lot of people are making these planters and most are reporting making a profit. It's time to add my two cents in the fold. Just subscribed and looking forward to more videos. Cheers!

Thanks for the video. Would like to see how you made all the other items that you show in the back of your truck.

Great vidio,very informative. Thanks

Ok thanks, starting with these right now haha!

5:58 almost the same exact cut. Even with a jig they will still be off slightly, but not enough to notice making this kind of project.

A hair over 3/4 is 13/16 ths Nice lookin box by the way

Great Video!! 1”x6”x8ft cedar fence board is $16.52 each in Atlantic Canada

Nice video very well explained and detailed. Am gonna need to try push these in my area. Subbed up and gonna go through your other videos 👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

Good work! I’ve never sold anything I’ve built but recently decided to and I think I’m gonna start with this!

I have made dozens of this style. I have always made the top frame wider so it overhangs the legs a bit. It’s aesthetically much more pleasing than having the frame flush to the top. I also cut 4 of the leg pieces narrower than the other 4…in this case 4 of them would be 1 1/4” wide. The overall look would be that all legs would appear the same size when finished. But overall, it’s a well made video.

I bought some fence boards today and they drying now but I'm going to make them for my wife for mother's day

enjoyed your inspiring video. I think I'll try some of these. GOOD video editing also.

I just bought that same skil miter saw and table saw. Absolutely love them! Sure beats that Harbor Freight 99 dollar table saw I was using, which worked really well once I got it dialed in. That was a trick though!

Those cedar boards where I live are over $12 at our local Home Depot. $36 plus glue, nails, and time. Doesn't leave room for much profit. I couldn't see charging more then $50 for one of those small ones. Its a great project. Too bad its not feasible where I live.

Thanks for the video. Great item to sell. Don't forget to add a few other project costs, namely the time to procure and transport wood. Then you also need to factor in a percentage of overhead like maintenance and amortization of your shop and equipment, electricity bills, bookkeeping and all that stuff. Not the scope of the video, but thought I'd add it here.

Question? why not clamp a stopper on the saw, that is once to set up at 13" and saw 4 pieces or a multiple of that for more boxes, move the stopper to the 11and3/4" and saw the 6 or multiples of those six boards Works a lot faster in my opinion Kind regards Hans

Sadly timber here in the UK costs around 6 times the price it is in the USA, yes even Cedar fence boards here are about £16.50 ($21) for a 6ft board (1.8m)

One thing that might help a bit if you are wanting to set up for a multi order. Instead of using the first piece cut to mark length and butting up to it, you could grab a clamp and a piece of wood and clamp it right to the fence of the miter. I used that trick when I was doing laminate flooring and needed to cut 10-15 pieces the same length for a room. It can really save some time from needed to butt up each piece.

Leave the bottom open more air flow and drainage the better. Use 1 board in the middle.

I make almost the exact same box in various sizes. Only thing I do different is miter the top trim. Bigger pain to fit but I like the look. I certainly don't get the amount of orders you do though, but still great profit margin. I really wish I had a planer, you're right about how those boards tear up sanding discs fast. Good job man!

That is the quietest nail gun I’ve ever heard! Jokes aside great tutorial!

you should miter the top trim.

Small tip for you. I have the same stand for my miter saw. If you take 2 peices of 2x10 cut the 2" wider then your stand width. And glue and screw the 2x10s together in a L shape. You then have a nice stop block you can clamp to your miter stand. That way you only have to measure your first peice

I.lovet your video,please did you mix all color together or what how you make great color.

Great video and i just subscribed. Wow you have the world's most quiet machines ever!!! No need for ear protection. (I'm not being serious btw)

Great vid bro. Wish my tools were as quiet as yours are 😅😅😅

I live in Rhode Island and there are no stores there carry cedar fence pickets. Best I've been able to get is 1.61/board foot. That adds up quick. Mind you, those board are suppose to be 11/16 thick. Yet the ones I got were closer an 1" thick. Which leaves me planing a ton of wood off. Or resawing a bunch of boards. Best we can get around here are the pressure treated fence pickets for $2.18/board. Those range from 1/2" to 5/8" and sometime you get lucky and they are thicker than 5/8".

I'm sure setting a stop would save even more time

Use a spare piece of wood and a clamp to make a stop block so you don’t have to line up the blade every time. Just butt the end of the wood up to the block and cut

Ive built similar products and elaborate products, i cant sell much of anything in this area and climate. 3 years ago, couldnt work fast enough

If you spray some weather proof wood fence stain these planters would last longer and sell for a better price.

Wow, where did you get those silent tools. Can you post the link below ? 😂 Good video.

I started woodworking end of last year, and heavily this year. I stayed away from 3 picket planters for several reasons. The first being there are over 100 videos on YT on how to make them. FB marketplace is covered with them in my area. I quick check right now shows some going for 25 dollars. They are everywhere, even vendor markets in booths that have nothing to do with planters. I make more decorative planters that cost more in styles you do not see on marketplace. I do not sell on marketplace, I rent a vendor space for a monthly sale in my area. Regarding yours, I considered running mine through a planter, but thinknesses vary so much on these, some getting close to 1/2 inch. I just hit them real quick with 80 grit on an orbital sander to knock off the fuzzies. Yours look good after planing. I personally would not send one out with brad nails holding the bottom but thats just me. Glad you are doing good with them and good luck.

I used to build fences & decks, and used to get cedar fence board for .94 cents in the PNW. Now living in New England, they're more than $6 each

Post more videos!

What size brad nails do you use? I know they are 18g but what length? Also can treated pine fence boards work instead of cedar for outdoor use? How thick are the boards you use?

I have one concern that stands out to me. The bottoms, just a few brad nails does not seem sturdy enough to hold a bunch of weight from soil, plants, and water. Obviously you've sold a bunch of them so it is likely not an issue, but in my head, that does not seem like enough support for someone filling that box up all the way with dirt, especially once the boards start responding to constant moisture. I can see a quick solution of using scrap to make small 2x2 squares that you place under the box sides and bottom in the crook of the legs. It's not a ton, but if you have extra wood at the end, you could solve a problem that has not presented itself yet. Or, I'm probably overthinking it, and all you'd be doing is adding more time for little to no payoff. Just a random thought that I figured I would point out, but like I said, I'm probably overthinking things. Cheers.

Great tutorial. What guage and length brad nails are you using?

In canada those cedar boards are 12.99 canadian or 10US funds.

I tried a different email address for your form. I was able to get the plans/image. Thank you.

Also, how do you advertise them!!

Make some stop blocks for your miter saw and you'll save even more time.

I used to make at least that a month. Now I have people selling 4 ft planters with plastic liners for $45 dollars and cedar trellis for $10. Got a good 5 years before the scaps ruined it.

What size brad nails are you using?

Unfortunately where I live in Ontario a 1 x 6 x 8 fence board goes for $13.60 for the cheapest I can find, which has steered people away from buying much stuff I've made

What size of Brad nails do you use? Thanks.

To make it even easier… put a c clamp as your stopper at your measurement and then just push it up and cut

Leave the gap in the bottom, call it a drain
