Cool Drunken Planters

Cool Drunken Planters



Earlier this month, my friend and Modern Woodworkers Association Toledo Chapter member David Picciuto published a video on making cactus planters. He titled it "How To Make Cactus (or Succulent) Planters."

My finished planters (and my miter saw).

Seeing how nice Davids planters looked, I decided I wanted to lean how and watched. After seeing the simple yet beautiful method David used, I decided I should make some for my wife for Mothers Day. I headed out to the shop, pulled together man of the fancy scraps Steve Taylor had given me before his departure for Germany and got to work making the planters.


You can see my take on the planter construction here:



For an even better explanation of the planter build (and I slightly different method than I used) you can check out Davids original video:


David also has a free pattern for the planters on his site, DrunkenWoodworker.com
