DIY - Backyard Planter Box

I hope everybody is staying safe and well during this pandemic and have found ways to stay busy and sane. The current situation of lockdown and working from home gave me a massive opportunity to transform a lot of my scrap wood that I've been collecting for ages to convert them to something useful and mind-blowing which everyone will love and appreciate. For this project we need pallet wood, protective equipments like face mask, glasses, gloves, sanding tool, hammer, measuring tape, nails, handsaw or chop saw, knife, pliers, pencil and paint of your choice. Using two hammers I'm dismantling the pallet. My aim is to reuse all the nails that I used in building this pallet. Let's start the project by sanding the planks to give them a nice and smooth texture. After that I'm cutting the 120 cm pallet planks into smaller blocks of wood with angular 45 degree and straight ends. The measurement of the wooden blocks will be shown in the following slides. To build the square box we need 446 cm, 442 cm and 450 cm angular edged blocks. Other than that 630 cm, 450 cm and 1042 cm rectangular blocks. The above measurements are based on 120 cm by 9.5 cm by 2.5 cm pallet planks and are also based on the amount of space available in my garden. To start the project I'm putting the two people facing sides together. For that I'm joining the 246 cm and 242 cm blocks with the 250 cm legs. Then I'm adding the 330 cm rectangular blocks to fill in the inner gap. Once that's done it's just a matter of putting the 1042 cm rectangular blocks to build the other two sides. To wrap it all up I'm adding the 450 cm blocks that I kept aside for the top bit. To build the rectangular box we need 4 or 638 cm blocks for the sides, 442 cm blocks for the boxes legs and 6 120 cm rectangular blocks for the people facing side. Making the box is way easier than the square box. We just need to join the 3 120 cm planks to the 250 cm legs and then join the two sides using the 38 cm blocks. Alright so that's all with the nails and the hammers. In the next section with the help of my partner I'm going to paint the exterior of the boxes. In total we painted 10 square boxes and 9 rectangular boxes for our garden. Once all the boxes were painted we started looking for some amazing plants from our garden for these boxes. But since the number of boxes were way too many so we ended up giving up our plan and selected plan B of getting some good ones from the nurseries once this lockdown is over. So that's all for now. Stay safe and stay at home. Maintain hygiene and practice social distancing as these are the only ways of staying alive. Thanks again for watching this video. I hope it helps you.
