I'm an ambassador for @rubiomonocoatscandinavia (Denmark). I'm not paid so say anything, but obviously I wouldn't become an ambassador if I didn't absolutely love their wood finishes.
I have been able to get a good amount of tools in my shop over the last year. I’m not a full time woodworker, and because I also have another job that supports my cost of living, I’m able to put everything I make from the woodworking back as investments in tools in my shop. It has been all hard work, but you’re welcome to make a comment about how fortunate I am to have a shop full of woodworking tools that magically have appeared overnight. But just know that I take care of a dayjob, work in the workshop in the evenings and edit videos for CZcams many nights.
I'm not affililated with any of the toolbrands I'm using in this video. Nobody paid me so say anything. However, I do like to support other creators, and often buy their merch.
I do owe thanks to a lot of creators, I will try my best to feature you somehow in future videos. The way I like to feature other creators is by making some sort of cameo that's relevant for the video I'm making, so I'm sorry if you send me your sticker hoping to get a shout-out. It could be a while before the right opportunity shows up for me.
People I mention in the video (check them out)
@MorleyKert @dainermade @FishersShop @KrisDeVo
Thank you all creators and people watching and commenting on my videos. I read all comments and will answer all. I learn a lot from the comments and will do my best to mention who gave me the good advice in future videos. Thank you.

Awesome job, man! Love the constant flow of inspiration in this community. You’re giving me ideas for some of my future projects as well! 😊❤️
Thanks for the inspiration Morley! Can't wait to see what you come up with. And I hope it's clear after watching my video or any of yours that this community is not about beating anyone, it's all about making good videos, inspiration and having fun!
oh you actually commented i was looking for you comment, you inspire me on not giving up when my projects go south
@@aboodhart1399 Never ever give up Abood!
Gotta say he beat you Morley!😇

Now you gotta make another video of the table you’ll now make for the customer!
the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. czcams.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
A wood finish
"Just keep going and pretend there were no mistakes" A great phrase to work by. I have made many mistakes in my wood shop class, but whatever the teacher doesn't know can't hurt him!
Thanks 🙏🙏
Bob Ross once said, there are no mistakes, just happy accidents
Mannnn, this is one of the coolest tables I've ever seen, and I think it's poetic that you recycled the old singer legs and she uses it as her sewing table. Spot on, love it. A frickin plus.
Thanks, glad you noticed 🤠
I'm a seamstress and I loved that too!
I’m so proud to see you blessed your mother in law for all the love and support ❤
Thanks 🙏
This guy's humor is GREAT! Loved the video...thanks for being real and adding excellence to the video/sound production!
Thanks 🙏
Excellent video, Jesper. I like how you "leaned in" to the mistake and made even more cuts into the table to explore the direction that it went. I want to sculpt someday but I don't seem to have the vision to see objects in my mind before they are in front of me. But the cut you made was the catalyst needed to explore that road less traveled.
Robert Frost would be proud.
Hey Scott, I'm just starting out in carving and like you I can't see the end result in advance so I don't have the confidence to start cutting into quality wood for fear of ruining it. Instead I carve construction lumber off-cuts, or firewood or even scraps of kindling or found branches etc. Because it's worthless and already destined for the wood burner there's no fear of ruining anything so I can just start carving without a clear plan of the final result. Quite often I surprise myself and make something that I'm pleased with, or I might think it's going to be a complete failure, but I keep going and it turns out okay. Sometimes my efforts do end up in the flames but that's also okay, it's all about learning and gaining confidence, and those pieces where I make glaring mistakes can be the most educational. And that quality lumber that's sat forever on the shelf?... if I've made a test piece that I really like that becomes a template for a higher quality piece giving me that option to 'see it before I've made it'. Think of it as sketching in 3D and feel free to make mistakes, at least that means you're making something. In time the mistakes will become less frequent (I hope!) 🙂
Thanks 🙏
Glad that you were able to sell the client a new table and allow your mother-in-law to keep hers. Great job.
Yeah it all worked out in the end.
Great build! Great attitude!
I genuinely love the commentary. A certain level of humility countered with experience, level headedness, and humor that just perfectly mixes together, thank you!
Thanks Jesse!
The fact that You show trying and effort is amazing. A lot of people make things look so easy all the time. You guys really inspire Me!
Thanks 🙏
having the repurposed singer-legged table go to your biggest supporter- your mum/mum in law- who uses it as a sewing table is very sweet.
even sweeter you sold the table afterwards just by design and ended up making another one!
Yeah it made me very happy 😊
Ha ha ha the finish was hilarious 😂 .
I love your attitude to making Jasper, for all us "little guys" we can relate and aspire to you. Enjoyed this video immensely as always.
Thanks 🙏
Looks really good Jesper. Remember, its never a mistake, its a design feature!
That's it! Thanks for reminding me..!
Jesper your projects are great but your story telling is even better. Well done on another great video. 👍👍👍
Thanks mate
I would sure appreciate having the expensive tools that you have! And boy do you ever use them to their Full capacity.
You are a creative artist!
Thanks,
Table was mint 👌👌👌👌
Cheers! Glad you think so! Got any favorite details?
What a beautiful thing you did! That table is beautiful! I love working with pallets! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks 🙏
i want to build my bed from pallets too.. I hope i succeed
I'm not sure how much emotion you intended to invoke with this video, but it was a lot on this woodworker's end. Well done young sir! Well done! This is spectacular.
Hi Alex, I'm so glad you noticed it was not just a woodworking video. Thank you for this comment.
My interest in woodwork is very new, I know nothing to it, but you sure help my passion to grow more and more. I discover you with this vidéo and i loved watching your content. Thank you for all the tips you shared. Also this table is a kind present to your mother in law for sure.
An idea : Maybe a LED lighted wood epoxy table with a hidden switch on/off option could be a future challenge? I wish you the best and I subscribed! 👍👍👍
Awesome, thank you!
Just wonderful!
Thank you Jesper, Morley and to all the other lovely woodworkers like you that continue to inspire and motivate.
Just about to start my own little woodworking shop and it's mostly due to people like you that I've got the confidence to pursue this dream!
Keep up the good work.
Go for it, and let us know if we can do anything.
Your videos are not only a good learning source for us beginner woodworkers but also incredibly entertaining! Thank you, Jesper. :)
Thanks, I'm so glad to hear that 🥰
You never stop impressing me with your videos, it's the perfect mix of fun, insightful, educating, and relaxing. Keep up the excellent work Jesper!
Thanks I will
Brother.. your hands can make what your eyes see and your ideas in your brain
Keep up the good and gorgeous work 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, I will
Glade you were able to make everyone happy and that the singer legs are still on a sewing table.
That was actually a pretty good little story in itself, thanks for noticing.
Hello Jesper, you made a beautiful table there and that you gave it to your mother is a great gesture! We only have one mother and we should honor her. And some mothers-in-law deserve that affection, too. ;) Greetings from Germany, Bert.
I agree Bert. My mother in law is adorable..😊
Thanks Bert, means a lot ☺️
I love watching your videos. Your woodworking and perseverance are formidable. You are tenacious my friend. Your mother in law I'm sure loves your projects and is so lucky to have your hand made table. Keep it up!!
I will, thanks Theresa ☺️
You tell a great story and make a great looking table. Glad that you kept you mother-in-law AND your client happy. Well done.
Gotta keep all happy 😁
The Pathfinder. This elegant specimen will brighten up any day. Initially, it may look a bit crazed but it has a solid base which firmly roots it about its business. You wont find many like this one, it is hard working resilient and cheerful against the knocks that the workshop can bring. Rich in its variety, economical and sympathetic in its use of materials, just an all round joy. And yes it made a table with some very similar qualities....
Jesper thanks for getting the jigsaw out and taking the risk, for treading that dangerous path for us.
Thanks mate! And thanks for leaving such a wonderful comment. You once again takes the price for best and most poetic woodworking comment!
Amazing build mate! Also, you are a fantastic Son-in-Law. I bet your Mum-in-Law loves you to bits!
Shout out to fellow Aussie and pallet punter Mark Dainer too. Without his channel, I wouldn't have discovered yours. Both of you are inspirations to me with my (very new to it) woodworking journey.
How far are you into this? Dainer and Jesper are geniuses.
Thanks 🙏 let me know if I can help with anything.
Not so much, but thanks 😂
Here, came here by way of Dainer Made too! Both great to watch
Beautiful vid Jesper ! My heart skipped a beat when you fired up that jigsaw!!! Glad it all worked out & now you have TWO happy customers !
Thanks Sam, yeah hopefully 2 happy customers soon.
10:35 haha "I live in a civilized country, where zero means freezing and one hundret that coffee is ready." Great one! :D
Thanks 🙏🙏 😂
aweee! the mother-in-law giveaway for the win! that's soo great!
It's way better to give something away over selling something 😜. It feels so good until you need to pay rent ☺️
That's a beautiful table! You should be proud of yourself. Good job 👍
Thank you very much!
I subscribed today because of your humility and willingness to share your whole experience and not edit out the hard times. Fantastic job on the table and video!
Thanks 🙏
I have tears in my eyes. I love singer, woodworking, sewing. The table base has a new but same purpose, this is heart warming. Thank you!
So glad to hear that, thanks 🙏
I saved money to buy a small drum sander, then my son got the opportunity for a 9 week leadership school camp. Goodbye drum sander. My Ute then blew up and I bought a new one and I had change from the purchase, hello drum sander. No! the family car then did an alternator and needed brakes, goodbye drum sander. I was then offered a weeks work dressing up in a red suit just before Christmas, Hello Drum Sander, so in effect Santa bought it for me. :) . That is an impressive table, well done. I like that the singer legs are still being used for a sewing machine.
Glad you got the drum in the end 🤠
absolutely brilliant video, love your humour, your honesty, your woodworking skills and ideas - and your youtube editing. You deserve lots of success Jesper, thank you for the entertainment!
Thank you very much!
Agreed!! This was my first time watching any of your vids and I'm a fan!! Loved the candor and humor. A story well told, filled with emotions. Great job!!
@@kayjay466 thanks 🙏
Great looking table, the Puzzle Loom absolutely looks amazing in my opinion. I've seen a few Pallet to Table builds, and I'm not a fan of just a ton of stripes, but your puzzle pieces and epoxy look amazing!
Glad to see the old Singer rescued and used for something, we have one ourselves in technically working condition, but it is more of a showpiece and coffee table
Yeah they are very much showpieces.
17:03 - money can never bring a smile like that! You did amazing mate!
Thanks
I love how you gave this to your mother in law. What a lovely thing to do! Love this channel
Great storytelling 🤣🤣🤣. My woodworking teacher told us, it's how you turn mistakes into art that sets you apart. Good job!
Thanks 😂
Very inspirational story teller.
Best of both worlds 👍
Thanks mate!
Awesome video...and you kick Morleys butt any day of the week
Probably not, but thanks 😃
Good job Jesper …you seem like an extremely good guy …very inspiring…love your videos…thanks again
I am! 😂 thanks so much for your support!
Such an amazing Video Jesper. Great story telling once again.
Thanks mate, so glad to hear from you
BRILLIANT! Love to watch your "matter of fact" builds. Pathfinder is a great name for the table and the way you approach your builds. Thanks for sharing and being an inspiration for newbie builders.
Thanks 🙏
This video brought back some memories...My father made a sewing table for my mom with an old Singer base. Just a simple Baltic Birch top. And she also used a Bernina sewing machine. Thanks for making my day! Cheers!
You're welcome, thanks to you too 👌
Jesper never fails to bring a smile to my face! Thank you! 🙂
That's worth it all!
I saw the swerves coming the second you started to copy a chopping board... it was like a beautiful slow-motion train wreck 🤣 What a great save and it just goes to show that nothing in woodworking is ever lost, it just may take many paths to find the right one 😊
Thanks James, I honestly didn't think I'd need epoxy on this one 😅.
Glad I randomly stumbled upon this video. You're commentary is worth the watch alone! Thanks mate! 👍
Thanks 🙏
It's a beautiful table, no matter what the final outcome is. Shows like this really gives me great inspirations for the projects I have in mind. So thank for sharing.
Thanks 🙏
I love the dig about the Russian pallet, almost poetic there. It just disintegrated....
Thanks 🙏
"If it can't be fixed with epoxy, then it can't be fixed!" - Jesper makes, 2023!
Awesome video as always bro! Loved the idea with the biscuit joiner to hold it down when planing too!
Ahahaha good one Sam. Thanks for your good vibes all the time.
I laughed at the end, when you went and banged on your mother in law's window. Great twist. Please do this on each of your videos as it really injects humor into the story line and like me, to get people to subscribe, which I did. Much thanks and keep up the creative work.
Thanks man, I always have a plot twist at the end of each video.
Fantastic video, I really like your sense of humor and the humble way you make fun of yourself and keep going! You do wonderful work and I also like the way you have explained to your viewers what it was like when you first started out and how you began accumulating your tools as you got more into creating furniture from old pallets. Very nice work and thanks for some great inspiration!
Thanks 🙏🙏🙏
KI SATISFAÇÃO FAZER UM TRAMPO DESSE , E DEPOIS VER IR PARA A PESSOA CERTA, PARABÉNS
Thanks 🙏
At least you got in good with the mother-in-law, that's priceless!
Agreed 👍👍
Great table, great story, great guy ! Thanx for sharing Jesper !
Thanks for watching 👌👌
Civilized country, epic and so true :)
Ahahaha 😃😃
Morley's talented for sure, but his biggest edge is a clientele consisting of millennials with a ton of expendable income. who will pay a trillion dollars just to have bragging rights that what they own is reclaimed. Not knocking his stuff, and if he can get that kind of money, he should. Your table is light years ahead of his stuff though. He'll get there one day.
Hi, thanks, I'm glad you think so, but I'm really just a beginner in most areas.
whoooa the washers and screws are a great way to hold it down! genius jesper!
Thanks, I don't think I'd seen it anywhere else
Great table with a great story !!! enjoyed the show
The Russian pallets just disintegrated with absolutely no resistance - must have been military. 🤣🤣🤣
Ahahaha 😃
Yes, exactly, and that's why the entire modern west doesn't manage to defeat these "oh so weak and badly armed Russians", even though 8 years of intensive preparation have been made. Very strong performance. 20 years Afghanistan and? 😂😂😂😂
@@rapjab8137what are you talking about? this stupid russians suck big time in this war. Nobody physically fighting this russians fucks except Ukrainian soldiers.
☃️☃️☃️ Keep on going with your Passion ! That table was so Beautiful 🎄🎄🎄 Happy New Year's ! ❄❄❄
She uses the table for her sowing machine! That is pure gold right there! Love your vids Jesper!
Absolutely, it's all about creating pieces that not only look good but are super functional too! I'm thrilled you're enjoying the journey with me. Got any projects of your own going on?
That is beautiful! Incredible project! Very inspiring!
Thank you! Cheers!
Jesper is my favourite woodworking channel
Good choice!
That was a great video, nice to see a non serious woodworking video but with beautiful work being done. inspirational truly and keep the light humour coming.
Thank you very much!
From Toronto to Denmark. Gotta love this community. I enjoy your projects, but it's your story telling that brings me back. Keep up the great work my friend.
Awesome! Thank you!
Fantastic! I started my toutube watching from that same exact pallet video. I thought, i have all these same tools, skills, and access to youtube. What am i doing? Now, i have all the same tools, same skills, and a stack of pallets with nothing to show for it. Good for you being inspired and actually taking action! It's hard to do and you should be proud of yourself for having the follow through and lucky to love your mother in law in such a genuine way. Thanks for sharing the journey and showing it takes more than inspiration, but follow through. I hope to be sharing my journey soon, just like you.
Sounds great, looking forward to see your journey mate. Send me a message on Instagram when you're publishing
Another amazing build! I love your humor. Morley does seem to have a knack for making the most of things. Thanks for sharing!
Knack?
@@Declopse natural talent
He is very talented for sure!
Very nice! The master is a real professional in his field. Nice and positive video!
Beautiful piece. Great job.
Beautiful table you made. I totally love everything about it.
Thanks 🙏
I came as a carpentry video, but it turned into a very emotional video.
The first table-building video I finished with 1 2 drops of tears... Hi from Turkiye tough men cry too 😅
They do, thanks for your very nice comment mate!
@@JesperMakes thanks a lot. I hope you will come to Turkey one day, you will be my guest and we will do a project together in my workshop :)
That would be awesome.
That’s beautiful man💯I’m on beginner stages to this craft but a mother’s support is everything ❤️
True! Good luck with it!
Excellent! Enjoyed the build, running commentary = priceless!!!
Thanks 🙏
That easily explain where all the pallets are going 🙂
Well done Jesper, very nice table(s)
Thank you so much 😀 Wooden Rider. Nice logo and name BTW.
Brilliant story.....oh hard work, and determination....fab!!
Thanks 🙏🙏
Amazing build, well done as usual. I love the way you work. Its a crazy train to ride, but a one of a kind experience.
Yeah 🤣
If people want to see someone do something spectacular with pallets, the channel to watch is Epic UpCycling. That guy makes things out of pallets that ought to be in a museum, because if this sold for $771, the work on that channel would be priceless.
Thank you for sharing the channel Epic UpCycling with me! It's great to hear about other creators who are doing amazing things with pallets and upcycling materials. I'll definitely check out their channel and see what kind of inspiring projects they've created.
Amazing work mate! more than that amazing story! very inspirational! Never give up just keep making adn find your path through a project , struggle whatever it is! Thanks for sharing! Now am very much geared up for the weekend! Thanks for sharing again!
Thanks mate, it means a lot hearing this from you.
Don't know what it is about the nordic accents, but i could listen to you all day mate.
Fantastic vid, amazing build.
Cheers, @StinkingBishop! Happy to hear you enjoy the Nordic touch in the narrations - I guess it adds a bit of extra flavor to the stories, right? 😄 So glad you liked the build! Stay tuned for more! Do you have a favorite part from this video?
@@JesperMakesOh, hard to pick out one favourite part Jesper; it's lame I know but I really did love all of it.
With that said, the part where you realised your mistake - and found a way to make it a strength - was particularly good. It was nice to see you give so much time to a cock-up as well as what you did to find a way around it. Definitely gives newbies like myself the courage to power on through my own cock ups. Of which there are many 😂
Really like the use of pallets too - I rely on scrap wood for my little projects and my small man-cave isn't quite as well equipped so vids like these are pretty invaluable to me. Loads of inspiration.
Just wish I could find a greater variety of pallets here in the UK as you seem to find!
Keep them coming Jesper, you do some of the very best woodworking vids on CZcams.
Ah, I can't tell you how great it is to hear that, @StinkingBishop! It's absolutely not lame; enjoying the journey with all its ups and downs is what it's all about, isn't it?
I'm really glad to hear that sharing the bumps along the road gave you a bit of a morale boost for your own projects. Remember, every mistake is just a new opportunity in disguise, a stepping stone to something even better. And hey, we've all been there with the "cock-ups" - they're just part of the creative process! 😄
I'm thrilled to hear you're finding inspiration in the use of pallets and scrap wood; it really is amazing what you can create with some ingenuity and a bit of elbow grease, even with limited resources. I hear you on the pallet variety in the UK; sometimes it takes a bit of hunting to find the good stuff. Keep your eyes peeled, and don't hesitate to get creative with what you can find! Thank you so much for the kind words; it really means a lot. Here's to powering through and turning those cock-ups into something brilliant! Keep on building, and of course, keep enjoying those videos. I'm here to keep inspiring you with more content. Cheers! 😄
Jesper - you are making the difference in woodworking videos. Love to see your content, to see your approach in solving difficulties, and share your philosophic setting 100%. Keep up the great work.
Best regards
Alex from Gemax 👏
Hi Alex, great to hear from you.
Jesper,, Love it !!!! The singer sewing legs really makes it one of a kind!!!!❣☕
Daniel, thanks a lot! The Singer sewing legs do add a unique touch. Glad you love it!
Morley ends his videos saying something nice about his mother. You end yours being nice to your Mother-In-Law. Love the video - you deserve way more subscribers.
Thanks 🙏🙏
Lol I love this video it's was very creative. The end was hilarious though with Jasper at his in-laws window looking at the table.
Thanks 😊😊
money means nothing. Just a smile from your mother means the whole world. congrats to this life goal brother :)
Thanks!
Great job and great gift for your mother-in-law! The table is unique and eye-catching!
Thank you so much 😀
You are an inspiration, Jesper. Keep up the good work!
Thanks 🙏🙏👍
Another brilliant project and video Jesper, you're one of the best things out there! I just watched it with my daughter and she's keen to make something now...thanks!!
You're welcome, happy to hear your daughter will build something now
Love your story telling skills and humour. I’ve just found your Chanel so will now subscribe and binge on the old videos. Love this table - paths of serendipity
Thank you so much for your kind words and for subscribing to my channel! I'm thrilled that you appreciate my storytelling and sense of humor. I hope you enjoy binging on my older videos and discovering some of the other projects I've worked on.
And I'm glad to hear that you like the "Pathfinder" table - it was a fun project to work on and I'm really happy with how it turned out. Thanks again for your support, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on future projects!
Everything can have a happy ending, and yours did. Another great video my friend. Keep it up.
Always!
Glad you made the sale.. and are making a new table 😁🪵
Oh yeah! Thanks for watching! 🙃
your videos mean 100% fun and enjoyment to me. I had a great time again, thank you. yes Turkish pallets are very solid and I'm glad the table stands at your mother-in-law. take care Jesper, Cheers 🥃
Thanks my friend, so glad to hear that from you. Cheers mate
Beautiful table with a wonderful story. Great work Jesper!
Thanks 🙏
Great story and beautiful work. Thanks for most atmospheric video i've seen in about half of the year.
Wow I'm so happy to hear that, thanks man
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL MISTAKE, TURNED OUT PERFECT IN THE END. VERY CLEVER. UK.
Thanks 🙏
So glad that CZcams out this in my feed! Subscribed and looking forward to seeing more from you. Great building and story telling skills my friend 👏👏👍🏻😄
Thanks 🙏🙏
Nice save! Mistakes are also opportunities to redesign as you have proven here. It’s great that you gave the table to someone who appreciates your work. The glitch with a buyer had to be a shock. Happy it turned out so well. Keep up the good work.
Very true! And thanks!
