With our dream house build mostly out of the way, it is time to get back in the shop and make some sawdust. This time we are making two tall planters for the front porch. We decided on a tapered planter which has been done over and over again. However, we wanted to switch it up and go for a modern look with sharp clean lines. The problem is that most weather resistant woods (like cedar) are soft and have a lot of gaining that would show through the paint.
