Tapered Planters Plan

Want to make a classic wooden planter, but have it be something more interesting than a simple  box?  Nick shows how to create planters with tapered sides -- they seem to flare from the bottom to the top. This requires a unique and incredibly versatile butt joint that you can make in a few  steps. And it's just as easy to adapt this deign to your own needs. Make a "standing planter" with four flared sides, or a "hanging planter" with one vertical side so  you can mount it under a window or on a fence. Nick also discusses what wood species are best for outdoors projects and provides a chart of "Outdoor Woods." 24 pages including step-by-step instructions, detailed drawings with measurements in both Imperial and metric, exploded views, and professional hacks to make the project go smoothly.
