DIYing your own home furniture is a great way not just to save money, but also to expand your skills. In fact, woodworking and DIY force you to get comfortable with tools, methods, and skills you’re unfamiliar with, or even struggle with.
One of those skills that requires a little practice is making miter cuts. Even if you feel perfectly comfortable using a miter saw, it’s not always easy to get your miters to match up perfectly. The easy way to overcome this? Practice, practice, practice — and the quickest way to do this is with a project that requires lots of miters.
This DIY outdoor planter is the perfect project for anyone new to woodworking: it doesn’t require a lot of tools, assembly is simple, and the repetitive nature of the cuts will definitely help you get familiar with miters. Simply download our FREE project plans and get to work!
