  • Reusing pallet wood is quite the challenge. If you find quality pallets, break them down efficiently, and spend time milling them, there is actually some great wood to be found. I cut up around 10 pallets to get enough wood to build a small meeting table for my office. I ended up with many different types of wood, such as, red oak, white oak, pine, poplar, cedar, cypress, maple, a very fibrous reddish hardwood, and one more type I couldn't identify (kind of like maple but was greyish). It was a fun experience. My small jointer and planer were begging to be done after all that work. The size is 42"Lx42"Wx31"H. The base was made with poplar lumber found at a construction site dumpster. They were great to keep the base unfinished and rugged.
    I blacken the screws on my Big Green Egg grill. Check out the app I created for Big Green Egg grills. Green Egg Nation - appsto.re/us/5dyb3.i

    This is woodworking that brings out the true colors of the wood and quality of the craftsman.

    That has to be one of the greatest pallet wood projects of all time. And a great Dewalt commercial to boot. Definitely love those tools.

      +Gregory Alan Hope you don't mind but I am going to share this on facebook. Maybe some of my friends will watch this. I belong to a couple of antique tool collector sites.

    Pallets are amazing, super cheap, good wood, I got 8 heavy duty ones made out of oak for free, and 22 smaller lighter weight ones out of pine or spruce for £1 each.
    Spent a day taking them apart, another day sanding then smooth, and a day gluing and nailing them to create a wainscoting in my bedroom, £55 all in, when I was quoted £590 for planed, ready to go wood to do proper wainscoting.
    And in my opinion the pallet wood looks so much better, different colour variations and thicknesses, really brought the room together.

    This is really cool because it makes junk look like a million dollars. By far the coolest piece of pallet furniture I have seen :D

    It's rare to find anything of any quality built from pallets. This is one of those times. Nice work. Good looking table, and great video. Please keep them coming.

    What a great design. I see a lot of room to riff on this idea too. Very cool, Kevin. Thanks so much for all you do for all of us!

    *Now THAT is upcycling pallets! Compared to many other videos using pallets complete with some few cut ups, this is a true piece of art!*

  • @onlyinfresno
    @onlyinfresno Před 8 lety

    Kevin, thanks for sharing this project. Very inspiring to watch and the music put me in the zone! What an amazing piece brother! Thanks again!

  • @cochinito1
    @cochinito1 Před 8 lety

    Definitely one of a kind. I like how you made your own butcher block out the pallet and the use of a roller to spread the glue. Great tip there. Thanks

  • @reggiep75
    @reggiep75 Před 8 lety +1

    I've got no major crafting or engineering skills, I wish I did tho, but I'm in awe of good craftsmanship like this.
    Excellent job!

  • @Benwinch07
    @Benwinch07 Před 8 lety

    Wow, so much awesome going on here. Your infeed/outfeed tables for the jointer are great. The rough finished base looks great against the perfectly finished top, and the top itself is magnificent. This gives me the idea to do my countertops this way. Awesome job :)

      +Kevin Jett I'm currently learning computer programming and, yeah... 'random' is a Bitch! :D
      As for the table, I can hardly say anything that hasn't been said already - the rustic legs are great; the top is great and it looks as sturdy as all living hell. Excellent job! Cheers.

    Very nice. I recently completed my dining room table made from pallets. How's this for irony but I get my pallets from a Kitchen remodeling outfit. They get their items shipped in on hardwood pallets one time use. Anyway, I think you have me beat. I have 57 pieces in my table but it looks like you have significantly more than that. Great job and I enjoyed the video. Subscribed. Thanks for sharing.

    Nice work on the table top. I've thought of doing something like that with scraps, but I've always gotten fed up with all the space in the shop they scraps take up and burn them before getting enough for a table top.
    Excellent idea on the jointer extension wings...

    • @KevinJett
      @KevinJett  Před 9 lety +6

      +MonkWerks with Fr. Thomas Thanks. I definitely wanted to show those extension wings in the video because I pretty much had to design them on my own. Not much out there on extending the tiny porter cable jointers. I originally extended it because I built my workbench and was jointing 8ft boards. The jointer is crap for long boards without extensions. I'll see if I can make a short video about them and tell how I constructed them.
