I have a concept and design on paper, but something to compare to would be much better.

We used waterproof glue for both. For the tongue and groove panel planter we applied a cedar sealer to the entire project and used exterior plywood, also sealed, for the bottom (drain holes were drilled through). The bottom rests on cleats and can be removed and replaced as needed. For the plywood project, we apply Cabot solid acrylic exterior stain to the entired project. It also has the same type of bottom.Chris Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16979231938261885141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3282325874367834916.post-34098505455880434122010-04-14T08:36:55.135-07:002010-04-14T08:36:55.135-07:00I have built similar planters.

Not sure whether Lowes has the tub. Anyway, If you build in a water line with PVC and a timer you can have good-looking plants with no effort.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06682964997908667701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3282325874367834916.post-29787997257602152502010-04-14T06:58:14.041-07:002010-04-14T06:58:14.041-07:00I would love to try this for some planters.

I worry that the weight of the weight dirt could cause the joints to buckle? Also, I assume you used outdoor, waterproof glue?
