My wife wanted a redwood planter box for the backyard.  After seeing the $60 price tag on the ones in the size she wanted, I decided to make my own for about half the price.

The materials - some 3/4" x 7 1/2" boards for the side & end panels, 3/4" x 6" boards for the bottom panels, 2x4 for the supports, screen material, wood glue and nails.

All the supports and panels cut to length

There must be room somewhere in this belt for my Glock.

We had a nice thunderstorm move through the Bay Area while I was working on this.

Decent amount of hail too...

The end of the 6" dogear boards worked great for the feet.

Adding the trim.  My miter cuts came out pretty good.

All done!  I still need to coat it with some sort of wood protectant once all the glue dries.

About $35 each.  These are 54" long, 15" tall and 12" wide.  The slightly smallers one's at Orchard Supply Hardware are $62.
