I replace an old lamp post and built a new one using leftover Cedar from the outdoor kitchen build and marine plywood for the flat panels, base and top. Learn all the tools and tips you’ll need to do it yourself.

love all the detail – thank you
This is only a how to video for those of us that already know how to lol doesn't say anything about what the biscuit joinery is called or the pocket hole jig or miter cuts Etc.
Another gorgeous one Jon.
Where can I find a guy with such attention to detail in California (Bay Area or Sac)?
Awesome craftsmanship
How do u keep
Your nice cloths nice always building stuff in them lol.
The first thing you should have done after dismantling the old post is remove the non-metallic sheathed wire from the conduit. Romex should never be used inside conduit since it will build up excess heat. Either run UF directly in the ground or pull thermoplastic conductors (typically THHN) through the conduit directly into a junction box. From there you can run Romex inside a hollow post, but as a former electrician I'd run conduit all the way to the top of the post and into the base of the light fixture.
Looks like a whole lot of work lol
I wish I could make miter corners like that you do a great job
Great format. Quick. No talking. To the point.
One of my favorites, amazing work.
I watch all your videos and I love your channel, but I personally never use molding on any of my projects because I have a very minimal aesthetic. Oddly enough, I love your use of it in your projects. I guess it goes to show that while personal taste may vary, the appreciation of great craftsmanship is impossible to deny while viewing your work. Your home is complimented by your work and has a great style and theme to it. Although it is different from mine, it suits you perfectly! I learn an immense amount from watching these and hope to apply some of the techniques to my woodworking and home projects in the future. Wonderful work, Jon!
Any plans for the lamp post?
Were you using a brad nailer or 16ga finish nailer?
good video ..
Sweet job Jon…
Excellent video – – it shows how its getting done without being grandiose
Sometimes the silent treatment is the best
maravilloso .i love.gracias jon
Nice work! Tnx for sharing…
Luckily white paint and filler were invented! Thank God!
Jon can you make a video about how to never get a shirt dirty no matter what you're doing?
Всё отлично !!!
Very nice project. Out of curiosity just how long did it take?
