Planter box progression

 Shop is finally up and running here at new Oregon location. Been a long journey, the fire came on sept. 28, and have been rebuilding and restocking since early oct. I have been extremely fortunate to acquire a huge amount of reclaimed old growth clear heart 1 x stock. Two very large homes, one in San Anselmo, other was Atherton I believe. Board and batten siding, deconstructed board by board. I purchased all, transported up to cave junction shop. Approx. 10,000 L.F. Should last for a little while? The following pics are an attempt by me to show progression of my planters, from painted siding boards to planed stock to frame construction of planters and finally finished product. Enjoy! Bryan

Horizontal boards on frame

This vertical style I refer to as “classic”. Note: this is a tree box,  the sides are full 1” stock reinforced with screws. 


And here are finished boxes with Penofin oil. 


And without....

I will continue to post photos and text of future builds. Next will be the raised beds, so popular since pandemic started.
