You might consider using a half lap joint to attach the 2x4 to the post. That way the screws are not carrying the weight of the plant. The 2x4 sets into the post and is held up by the post. Then the screws are just keeping the 2x4 from twisting. Its a bit more work, but safer with the downward weight as the screws are no longer holding your plant up
Thank you I have been looking for a video that explains how to do this I very appreciative this. 😊 amazing work to the bonsai supply really like watching all the video's just full with knowledge.
Very nice. I’ve been wanting to make some of these. I made stands for my trees out of cinder blocks. I stacked cinder blocks and made a table top using 2x4’s and pretty much put it on the cinder block stand like a cap. It’s extremely sturdy and looks very fancy.
Thanks for sharing the excellent idea and details. Do you have any suggestions to keep pot attached to board? (we get lot of wind and want to keep the pot anchored) I have tried using bungee cords and those are ineffective.
I think they are more commonly called monkey poles. You can also just put cross pieces at the bottom and not install in the ground. That way you can move them around the garden once you find out you don’t like the location or it is not the exposure you thought it was. With wide enough cross pieces they are just as stable as dug in ones. And for installing posts a decent post hole digger will give you faster results. I have about 20 installed in my yard.
I think screwing the 2x4s to the post before setting it in the ground would be easier and even adding the slates if you felt like it , then cement it in , easy peazy . Just my 2 cents worth. 👍
Gravel works just fine instead of concrete and won’t rot post like concrete does when it cracks and allows water to sit against post. This is not holding up a fence so concrete is too permanent and a overkill…but looks great and great idea!
An awesome yard made even more awesomer!!
Yes!! Thank you Nigel🙌🙌
Dude! You’re killin me with the hand saw!!!!

Nice display stand for the bonsai, nice new post to pee on for the dogs. Everyone is happy.
Hahahah!! They are actually not allowed there anymore for that reason.

Bagus bagus koleksi bonsainya
A post hole digger tool seems like it would make the digging easier
Yes of course it would, a skid steer with a drill would make it even easier😉 I’m just using what I already have
That's useful for me as a starter/beginner.
Very Very good!!!!!
The last gap between slats is larger. I can't stop thinking about it.
Simple...but woth it..👍👍👍
Thanks for the tips 👍👍🇵🇷

Thank you. Very useful...
You are very welcome 🤗
Awesome, Jerome... you GOTTA get some power tools tho!🤣
Hahah! Funny enough, I actually have power tools, saw and everything. I sometimes enjoy doing things the old fashion way lol

Cool tip! When are you going to give us a tour of the bonsai area? Love the furry friends you have, Varg says bork to them

Of course south Florida needs a pro auger from the limestone 😩
Here in Georgia the top clay can get very compact and makes it a lot easier to loose. It up first with the auger 🙂
