Building Planter Boxes Video

Bob Ryley is in the garage workshop in this episode helping Bob build a planter box for the sunroom. Using a compass to draw intersecting circles, Ryley creates a simple pattern for the legs of the box. Next, he scores the line with a knife before cutting with a saber saw. The legs are joined to the main boards with biscuits and some wood glue. To make the end pieces, Ryley again uses a compass to create the outline, and then cuts the pattern with a saber saw. The end pieces are attached with glue and some nails. Finally, the bottom board is laid inside the box and nailed in place. When it's complete, Bob and Ryley move it to its new home under the picture window and add some potted plants.
