Builds quickly into a unique planter

I've built two of these, one out of pressure treated and one out of cedar as a gift. They look great! The pressure treated is raw, and the cedar was given a coat of linseed oil to bring out the color of the wood. This plan builds very quickly and easily. It calls for 4 pieces of 8ft wood, but it actually takes a bit more than that. 4 10ft boards will work, or 5 8ft pieces. There are lots of cuts to make, so a table and scroll saw are real lifesavers. Assembly goes much faster if you use an air nailer. The project took me about 10 hours to complete.
