These planters were made for some friends here in Lansing, Michigan this summer. They are made from treated landscape timbers. The design was pretty much taken from the lay of the land. They were installed over a 4” bed of pea stone and the ground contact areas, inside and out, were covered in plastic. The build was memorable because the temperature was around 100 degrees F when I made them.

Wow, that is a heck of a lot of monster perfect mitres. I can only do that well at 1/10th the scale shown here. How did you do it? And why!? Answer, I only guessing that woodworkers like us are a compulsive perfectionist lot. Super work.
