- Hey Everyone!
It's been awhile, but I am back! Back with smaller projects, because I still have no access to my power tools. After the move, we've had so much going on and still have not finished unpacking. So everything from the last trip is still in the garage. We need a shed BAD. Once we get everything squared away, I will be able to do better builds for you. What I have planned for the next few months are a Farmhouse Dining table, upholstered bench, coffee table and more. So wish me luck and please enjoy this garden build.
The house has an amazing yard and I want to keep it that way. So, while looking around on Pinterest, I came across this Obelisk. All the ones I saw were like 8 ft tall, all the way down to 4 ft. The one I built for you today is 6 ft tall. I also added a solar light to the top, which is optional. If you would like to try this your self (no power tools needed) the cut list and materials are below. Have fun with this project and make it your own!
MATERIALS:
4- 2 X 2 X 8 ft Pressure Treated Wood
3- 1 X 2 X 8 ft Pressure Treated wood
Exterior Wood Glue
Galvanized 1 in wood screws or you can use Galvanized 1 in crown staples like I used. (wood screws would be more secure, I couldn't find mine)
4 - 2.5 in exterior wood screws
Pull Saw
Clamps
Level/Square
Tape Measure and Pencil
(always use best safety practices when building)
CUT LIST
cut (4) 2 X 2's to 6 ft (72ins)
cut (3) 1 X 2's 2@ 5 in, 2@ 6.5 in, 4@ 8 in, 4@ 10 in, 4@ 12 in, 4@ 15 ins
For the Rungs. I measured 11 inches from the top and made my mark. then @ 22 in, 33 in, 44 in and last at 56 in.

Nice job. I have tried different plans for Garden Obelisk but way to difficult. This I can do. Thanks.
Appreciated your approach to the angles.
Nice! Glad to see you back on with another video.
Awesome job thx for sharing enjoyed it Be safe God Bless
Very nice.
Really like your design. I am going to use your video to make some of these for garden. I do raised bed gardens, but I like the idea of having these around in different spots of back yard. I am going to grow runner beans and peas on mine
Thanks and that is a great idea! I think for mine, I'm going to grow some jasmine on it this year. I may build another one but with a planter box as the base. Have fun building! Thanks for watching!
Well, just finished up my obelisk based on your video. It turned out great! Thanks for the tips and tricks! Problem is now, I want to build two more!
That is awesome!! The easy projects are always the addictive ones LOL! I can't tell you how many wine boxes I have. Made one, and then made like 4 more. Gave them away as gifts after awhile. When you make more, you can try different sizes. Have a plethora of garden obelisk!!
We built 3 of these about 5 years ago, just refinished them, and thinking about building a bigger one. Your instructions are very well thought out.
Thanks! I would love to make some different sizes and maybe one that has a planter box so I can grow something that will climb the obelisk
I tried doing it with beveled edges for the last that go over the stand, but I just couldn’t make it work by myself, I did, however pre-paint all my lumber before I started cutting , so I’m hoping this method goes easier. I’ll let you know.. . .
I bet it's going to be amazing! Good idea to paint beforehand. I'll do that next time!
Would you be so kind to let me no the angle you cut the bottom of the legs please thankyou
Very nice job
Thank you for watching and thank you for the kind words. I wish I had an answer for you, but honestly, I don't think I cut any angles at the bottom of the legs, since it was going to be resting in dirt.
So in your opinion, I could use this build and put a windmill on top?
I wouldn't see why not. That is actually an awesome idea! Now I want to do that LOL!

You do it first 😆 I was wanting a 10ft windmill build for my property I have. I'll be patiently waiting
LOL! I'll give it a shot
Hope all is well,
Let me guess, you are building my windmill ?
Ha! At the moment, I'm better. Getting over the coof. So haven't worked on anything. But I'll get back at it soon! Thanks for checking up! Windmill...hopefully this year LOL!
