The original is posted to my primary channel, @TwoAcreHomestead I edited this video down from 37 to 17 minutes long to make it more digestible. So I got bored making square cedar picket planters and decided to give myself a challenge and make a 5 sided one. This is the design I came up with. After posting the prototype planter on Nextdoor, folks seemed to think it would make a better bird feeder than a planter, and who am I to argue with my customer base. So I tipped sideways, put a back on it and have sold about 10 so far in the first week. This concept is scaleable upto almost any size you like, and bigger projects with more consistent wood than $3.58 Lowes cedar fence pickets would probably be easier to construct.
