need any help with building it just let me know and I will call you through it  sorry no plans on paper just in my head .

oh I did make one change on this .......... on the long planters.... make all 4 legs even and I now do not screw them together . this way you can make any shape you need for the yard . the tall sq planter legs are the 4x4 with the sq cut out of it to make an "L" then take that cutout and do it again to make the long planter legs  2 4x4 x 8 footers will do and it leaves you with enough to make 1 more 18" sq planter  I think it is 12 1x4 x 8 ft cedar boards  for the one in the pic and an extra 18" sq planter

I use a 4x4 and cut out the in side  to make an " L " 1 1/3 inch wide each side . use a brad nailer and tac the first board even with the top  if you are using 1 inch thick cedar make sure you cut 8 2" shorter  then the other 8 . so you are square I pocket screw the top together and turn everything upside down and put the box on top , oh and I put the insert in to  so you have the insert the top and the box all upside down . then I take 3 pc of 1x4 cut to fit inside the box and place them where the inset feet are and I put 3/4" x the inside with of the box on top of the 3 pc I just put in and then I screw them to the inside and flip it over and screw the 3 pc to the rail I just put in .... then take out the insert and put the top down and the box again on that

and mark the underside of the top with it and then use 1 1/4 inch screws to put the 3/4 to the top and set it on the box and screw it to the inside of the box   best way I found to build it . but email me if you need help I build when needed about 8 a day .

It's a fantastic looking planter and I can't wait to get to work. without plans and the novice I am it will take a while.
