Beautiful Handmade Box from Pallet Wood
Vložit

- In this episode, I'm building a beautiful oak box using finger joints, also known as box joints, to bring together repurposed pallet wood I've had for awhile now. I also show a technique of transferring lettering to the wood using an iron. Nothing special here, I just printed out a backwards design I made on standard paper using an average everyday inkjet printer. Using heat from the iron, you're able to transfer the ink to the wood. Just be sure to mirror the image.
Thanks for watching!

Brett,.....you just touched a heartstring... My Brother and I haven't had a close relationship over the years. Because of Him having a near death experience, and on his way to partially mending, I have really thought about him and our relationship a lot lately. This Video has inspired me to make something special like this for him! In case you ever wonder if you make a difference in someone's life when you make these videos?.....You Do!...Thanks Buddy...for Sharing this Video! Have A Super Week!.....Gus
Hey there, thank you for the kind words, I'm glad this reached you the way it did. I think we can all be a little closer to our family and I'm glad you're making the effort, we need more people like that. Best of luck with you and your brother as well as the up coming project!
Likewise. I have two younger brothers who have not spoken to me in over a year. The same thought came across my mind.
Same here. Thought about my brother and wish to create a similar gift. The wood shavings as filler was a nice touch btw.
i also had near death last year, hope you and your brother are ok, and also what a great video, i loved it.
Turned out great! I just wish my brother was still around. He would've loved it.
How strange to be so deeply touched by a woodworking video. I’m not a softy like this normally but combine a really awful week with such a touching soundtrack, such craftsmanship, the powerful absence of speech and it combines to a wonderfully heartfelt video, thoroughly enjoyed.
Nothing Better than accuracy at work
I watched it in lunch break, otherwise I generally put the sound volume down for CZcams DIY's. The strumming is great, the project, with lot of love and affection, the love of a brother, priceless!
So much love was shone in this video.😊👍💗
thank you for watching :)
That is both excellent and inspiring! In the 70’s we ‘surfies’ would make picture frames from pallet wood around surf photos/posters. I used to burn off the grain with my fathers port-a-gas blowtorch. Mostly the wood wasn’t straightened nor planed, just cut and burnt. Good to see this method is still alive! Great work.
Got a tear in my eye mate, I don't see much of my brother and I miss him a lot, would love to have the skills and confidence to make him something like this as I know he would appreciate it, thanks for sharing your video and the gift you made is beautiful, all the best
Thanks for sharing your story man, and you can definitely make something like this. It's the thought that counts too.
Almost perfect! What I would not do was burn the wood! I prefer natural color! Congratulations!
Great tip for installing those hinges. Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful.........very lucky brother. Anaco, Anz.
Absolutely speechless...
Flipping heck I have bloody struggled for years trying to line up hinges on the lids of boxes I have made, I have never seen that trick with the super glue before. Thank you I will use that method for years to come.
Sweet! Glad I could help :D
One of my most favorite videos. Thank you for doing this.
I had to fight tears thinking about my brother. I got to do this. Thank you for sharing a special moment.
Gotta make a box for my brother...just big enough for him...nice work.
How could 66 people give this a thumbs down.
Everything about this video is fantastic: the making of the box, who it was for, and the obvious love and thought that went it to the whole project. Well done, mate. 👍🏼
Thank you!
1 Word Jealousy
Your brother must be proud to have a brother like you...
Sometimes lol
One Lucky Brother to have you.
That is a beautiful thing. What an amazing gift.
Came out very nice, love the look after burning and adding the finish to it.
This box has been made with love and prove the good relationship with you brother. I wish i had such a good relationship with my brother. Well done Brett great job with a lot of sentiments.
Thank you!
Brilliant !
thank you!
This was amazing. Thank you. Not only was that a very thoughtful gift, but you have given me some ideas for using all the pallet pieces I have in my shop.
Nicely done, the oak box and the video.
thank you!
Beautiful. Made with things people just throw away and think nothing of it! Great job!
Thank you!
That is such a beautiful piece of workmanship, I'm sure your brother would have been delighted to receive it.
Thanks Tony, he definitely enjoyed it, or at least what came in it lol
Brett Withjack I bet he did, the contents looked very alluring! Ha! Ha!
What I like was the way you positioned the lid on the hinges with CA glue before installing the screws..
thanks!
Brett, the only thing I might do differently is when you drill the holes, they make those "snappy" brand, self centering hinge drill bit set. I use those and they work real good. Available at Amazon.
Just came across your video it inspired me to make something for my brother /s. You did a great job and the music was just perfect for that special gift.
Lovely. Especially liked the burning to bring out the grain.
Amazing work, and stunning gift ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
That is a work of art !
Stunning!!
thanks!
Brett just want to thank you for all your wonderful videos and taking the time to share them. Being deaf and unable to hear most of the videos posted yours are awesome. Straight forward and thorough much appreciated. Keep 'em coming.
Hi Shelly, thank you for the kind words :) I will definitely keep making more.
Absolutely beautiful gift for a brother. I am inspired to try to make this for my very special brother. Thank You ❤️

Beautiful gift for your brother, well done.
Well done
What a video man, you mixed art and emotions with lots of tech. God bless you and your brother.
That was a great project,looked like fun. Someday or miracle I'll have all those fun toys, right now I work with a 15 yr old skill saw an a cordless drill an my imagination to make up for everything else. Thanks for the knowledge an the time.

Wow thank you, you made my day!
Very, very cool build.
thank you!
Very much enjoyed your video. Also like the finger joint and the wood burning finish.
This turned out great
VERY nice indeed.
Must have a go myself over the next few days.
Love the box and video. Both very well made, very informative even without words. Great pace and music.
That has to be one of the best woodworking clips I have seen in ages......makes me want to go out and buy a tablesaw.
Thank you!!
A lot of people don't realize that under that ugly, rough-cut pallet is potentially beautiful lumber. You possess true skill sir, amazing job!
Well Done!! Amazing work
Very cool....great job. It's amazing what can be done with scraps of wood that most people think is no good. Very thoughtful of you too.
thank you!
Loved watching that!
thank you!
Great job....great sentiment

That would make an awesome gift!! Nicely done.
Thank you!
That was awesome. Nice job.
thank you!
When seeing the final product, I had some doubt about that being made from firewood, but in the building process was pretty clear that was palet wood. Great job!
Thank you!
I would love to have a box like that. Specially with the assortment of bottles
Now you know how to make one!
The woodworker has said it all, I would like to do the same for my brother, thanks for sharing.
thanks for watching!
Very nice job looking very good!!!👌👍💯
Nicely done!

what an amazingly simple and beautiful box - bravo!
thank you!
This video soothe my soul...thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Great Video and lovely box there my friend. I normally make rustic boxes out of pallets but I'm gonna make a few nice ones now. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Nice project. Beautiful execution. Nice video.
Thanks!
Awesome!!!❤
congratulations !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!was my thought without reading a comment
Very cool! The burning technique almost gave it a zebra wood look to it. Nice work.
Thanks for watching, I agree!
That is a beautiful box! Nice box joints.
Thank you Rick!
Was enjoying the craftsmanship and admiring the box, but when you peeled back that paper..... Dude, you cracked my hard candy shell. :-) Thanks.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it
Very nice video. That is one nice looking box.
As of this viewing, there are 11 people who clearly, just don't get it. There is absolutely no reason for a thumbs down. Video production and soundtrack are great. The gift you've made your brother, also great. And, your choice of/use of tools which were not from the higher price point, conveying to the viewer that its possible to keep it simple, while still ending up with a wonderful project, also great. If CZcams offered a point scale, with a 1 being terrible and a 10 being great, or the reason we viewers choose to watch a video, you Sir would be hovering around a 10 in my opinion. Apparently, I don't get it, or at least those who awarded a thumbs down.
haha thank you for the kind words, you're right, some people just don't get it but it's folks like you that make it worth the effort of making these videos. Cheers
Great looking box! I am sure your brother will cherish this handmade with love box:-) thank u
Thank you!

Awesome, thanks for watching and sticking around!
