This weekend I finished the second planter and started the mold for the patio table. These had about $10 in mold materials, $10 in concrete, $30 in stainless screws, and $30 in wood. I am going to use the basic mold again to make a bench or two. Since these molds were completely assembled using silicone and no screws, they can be reused over and over.
Very cool with the horsetail reeds.
The far planter has recycled glass tiles and the near planter has white and green crushed glass.
The table will be 40" round and will taper from 3" in the middle to 1" at the edges. The base is a $4 piece of floor underlayment. The sides are strips of 1/4" fiberboard. This mold will continue the screwless theme that has been working so well. Notice on the supports I put some masking tape. It holds well and makes cleanup a breeze. Just peel off and throw away.
