Just to say to the people concerned about cost to build, I get cedar fence pickets free at a company that builds wooden fences. They charge 50 cents for new leftover 6 to 8 foot pickets, that way you only have mostly labor cost in your project.

Dan, Great project! I think I may borrow it for 2 flower beds for my back yard. However, I think your cost estimate is a little low. I can get 5 1/2 inch wide cedar pickets for $3.85 each. So my costs will be a little over $25. That is still a very low cost and makes your project worth the effort. I may modify your project to allow the bottom to be removable. This will make cleanup of the container easier.

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. I built mine with treated pine pickets at $2.18 each, but cedar would definitely be a nice upgrade especially if growing anything food related.

Liqued nails better then outdoor wood glue?

I don't know if I'd call it better... Small intricate or food related projects I would definitely use titebond or equivalent, but for this purpose liquid nails is more than sufficient. Being in the construction trades, liquid nails is what I've always got laying around so it's what I use mostly on my side projects.

Would Titebond 3 work just as well as the adhesive you are using ?

I don't see why not, just go fairly heavy on it. Thanks for watching!

Would brad nails work as well as staples or are staples better ?

Well, I would think a staple would theoretically have approx 2x the strength as a brad nail of the same length. Really though, the glue is doing all the long term holding in this case so I don't think it matters too much. If it makes you feel better, use a few extra nails.

I picked it up from Harbor freight a couple months ago during their sales for about $20, I think normally $25-30. Wasn't expecting much but actually works pretty good so far.

Not all of us have all those power tools. How ‘bout you make something without a table saw and brad nailer?
