U-Bild 879 Wheelbarrow Planter Project Plan;

Filled with potted plants or flowers, this wheelbarrow planter project will add a nice touch of color to the porch or patio this summer. And when it cools down outside, the project's small scale and functional wheel make it easy to roll inside and park next to the fireplace, perfect for pine cones or kindling. It's also easy and inexpensive to build. Required materials include about 12 board feet of redwood (other species will also work), a small quantity of secondary lumber, some fasteners and the builder's finish of choice. Most of the pieces are traced from full-size patterns, eliminating any complicated figuring or guesswork. Simply trace the pieces onto wood, cut out and sand. Next, assemble everything using glue and nails. Finally, add a clear coat of sealer (as pictured), stain or paint. The wheelbarrow planter measures about 40 inches long by 10 inches wide by 15 inches tall. About U-Bild plans: U-Bild plans are ideal for woodworkers and do-it-yourselfers of all skill levels. Unique "trace, saw and assemble" designs feature simple-to-follow patterns (like sewing patterns) that produce professional-looking results.
