Build a Custom Planter Bench
Year 2 Show 13: 12/4 - 12/10/00 | 5/21 - 5/27/01
1. Create a sketch:
l Donna was hoping that Ron
could help her create a bench
with a planter box on either
side, so they worked up a
sketch together. Planter
benches can come in all sorts
of shapes and sizes but Ron
drew up a plan that he
thought would work nicely for
this particular situation.
l Ron's designed a bench that
would be flanked by two end
panels joined together by
boards called stringers or
stretchers. There would be
two stringers on top and one
on the bottom.

l Seat slats would be nailed to
the top stringers.
l They would also construct
two planter boxes and attach
them to the end panels.
2. Cut the wood:
Donna and Ron selected
redwood for the bench and
planters. There was a lot of
cutting to do so they made a
cut list to keep track of it all.

l Ron set up an adjustable stop
block on the saw. Since they
would be cutting sixteen
pieces of lumber to the same
length, the stop block would
ensure consistently accurate
cuts. After a quick lesson on
the power miter saw, Donna
was comfortable cutting all
the lumber.

3. Notches:
l The next step was to cut
notches in the wood to form a
strong and attractive
connection for the end
panels.
l Using a notch joint had
several advantages. It would
provide more glue surface
than a simple butt joint…

4. Positioning:
l it would make assembly
easier allowing one piece to
nest into the other…
l and it would use more
common 3 ½ inch screws
rather than five or six inch
long fasteners.
l Ron measured and
determined the size of his
notch and then created a
template by nailing a small
piece of wood to a larger
piece.
l He showed Jennifer how to
push this template up against
the piece of wood that was to
be notched. When the block
touched the edge of the
wood, he traced the outline
right onto the piece to be cut.
