All of the pieces used for the sides of this planter have 45 degree beveled ends. Make sure to double check the dimensions required prior to cutting your ends.
Attach the large side pieces in sets of two with wood glue, pocket holes, and screws.
Attach the short sides the same way.
Build the bottom piece with pocket holes and wood glue. Make sure there are pocket holes along the outside of the piece for attaching to the sides.
Attach the bottom piece to all four sides with wood glue and pocket hole screws. You may want to drill small holes in the bottom for drainage.
Fill your pocket holes, nail holes, and corners (if there are gaps). Then sand & seal your planter!
