Two Wall Hung Planters

A few hours in the workshop are all that's needed to make this unusual wall planter. Edge-glue enough stock to make a 12 in. square, then scribe and cut out the various circles as shown. Lay out and mark the location of the mortise, then cut out with a sharp chisel. The ring is made to the dimensions shown, keeping in mind that the grain direction in-0* dicated will provide maximum strength. If necessary, the

inner diameter can be altered to accomodate pots of a slightly different size. Sand thoroughly, then assemble with glue. Stain to suit and final finish with two coats of polv-i^- \> "JC urethane varnish.

Resembling the wall boxes that were so common during our Colonial period, this well-proportioned planter will provide an eye catching setting for a favorite houseplant. Cut the back to length and width, then transfer the grid pattern to the stock. Lay out the location of the '/i in. notch, then cut out both grid pattern and notch with a bandsaw. After cutting the bottom to size, a router equipped with a piloted bending bit is used to make the molding. The front is rabbeted as shown in the detail. Sand all parts, then assemble with glue and countersunk wood screws. -_____
