Two summers ago I said that I would show the internals of the planters.
Sometime after My phone would not connect to My computer,I think it was damaged by a mobil charger I was using (phone got real hot)!
New phone last week. Downloaded all My Pics off M-card.
So as promised a dull update :D
I used aluminum flashing to form a drainage tray.

Cement backer board for the base with drain holes and sealed the inside with Rustoleum flex-seal.

I then put down aluminum radiator screen as a drainage grid.

I covered the bottom with Ag Fleece and put in 40# of pea stone,then another layer of fleece.
Then filled with potting soil.

That is very nice. Karen wants something similar, you have given me some ideas.

I often post what comes out of my mouth, and like a few others have said, Wow!  very nice, handsome and clean
only have a few chain saws I'm not suppose to use, but will at times, one dog Dolly, pretty good dog, just not sure what for yet,  working on getting the gardening back in order, and kinda thinking on maybe a small bbq bizz,  thinking about it,

Nice!  There's a right way to do everything!
Anything someone can design, I can sure figure out how to fix!
If I say it\\\\\\\'s going to take so long, multiply that by at least 3!

jem , I don't know  :o
The wood is salvaged from a shipping crate that came from Germany.

I would guess , some kind of pine   ;)
