Nifty s/w for a forum. Seems to be used by a number of places.
Anyway guess things work.

planter (a few pics)

for those of you who thought I never made anything...

idea & plans from R. Freudenberger Woodworking Projects for the Garden.



I made some changes - mitered corner, mitered top and the top covers the edges of the side planks. Slatted bottom (for drainage), and I routered the circle parts of the keyhole and rounded over the edges of the keyholes. No visible hardware either.







At one time I had 18 Quick Grip clamps on this thing...

took about 5 evenings, 2 hours per. No finishing! - all fence picket cedar, It'll sit outside and weather.

I was wondering if you ever made anything[] Nice stand! But don't those thing go better in pairs?[8D]

Believe it or not, the author's plans suggested jigsawing out oll those keyholes.

Nice looking project Loring.

Very nice, Loring. Different, off-beat but very pleasing design, and nicely executed. Your design changes clearly improved the piece.

Nice looking plant stand, Loring. How many more does she want???

[Whaler]

I like it. Nice job. I'll show the pic to LOML and maybe she'll let me buy enough clamps to make some.
