My extensive experience with Gumby suggests that he isn't very hard at all.

Gumby, there was an article in Better Homes and Gardens WOOD magazine Issue 169 April/May 2006. It goes into details with plans and cut lists for making a rectangular planter on a couple of posts. PM me if you want a pdf.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm still not sure which way to go but since this will be out on the deck and exposed to the elements, I might go for a pottery type instead.

I appreciate the input as always :)
