Help - How do I Straighten a Warped Board? Milling Wood Like a Pro Without Fancy Tools
With regards to the dowels in the tenons: with my small furniture pieces I love running a 2 inch brad nail through the underside at an angle. If you do it right no one will ever see it and it’ll never walk out. Obviously this is on a muuuuch smaller scale but just advice for anyone who’ll bother to listen to the rambling lol
I recently got a comment on one of my builds that read, "Beautiful, but not pallet wood" LMAO. I have 290 subscribers, it was a photo montage and why would I have any reason to lie? I guess it's the millions of dollars I make on YT that is leading me down the dark path of lying about getting wood from pallets. LOL
I've never seen pallet wood even remotely close to the quality of the wood you use. Nice work bench, but calling shenanigans on the wood. That's better quality than what you would find at a hardware store in the US.
Use a sawzall and cut the nails works fairly good
23:13 what does your hand do there?
You are a 💯 in my book. You do awesome work.
The real mccoy
I want to know where you get them from. Old furry mate Danier gets them as well. Be buggered if I can find any like that.
These come from a factory that make granny flats. I am pretty sure they get their windows delivered on them. Generally pallets like these are gone before they hit the street, but in this instance they were piled up on the side of a highway, so I called in a favour with a friend who has a truck haha!
Looks real to me! Lol
You should see the number of broken stuck nails! Heh
My merchandise looks great, very convincing. The bill is in the mail
shhh..... ;)
@MelbourneMaker 🤣
Ahhhh I see you've had a delivery from @fixitfingers fake pallet bespoke pallet company 😂😂😂
Don’t respond to the neg heads. Keep doing your vids and tell me where you get your pallets. My pine one have bloody hook nails in them!
Looks like a fun job for a Melbourne heatwave!
Yeh havnt made as much progress on breaking them down as I would have liked thats for sure. Too hot.
😂
You could make a business selling Aussie pallet wood
This is awesome my only advice would be that you might want to move your vice to the other end of the bench, if you're right handed (which it appears you are) you're better off having the vice on the right hand side so that your waste off cut falls off the bench rather than the piece you want to keep if you're using a bench hook for example You should invest in building a bench hook, they're very simple to make, 2 bits of wood and a scrap of ply. They're really handy for making crosscuts with a hand saw or even just something to butt timber up against while chiseling
I wish we had that type of sturdy pallets here in Paris ... ours are all thin and frail ...
Insanely great quality pallet wood ...!!!
That is a dream workbench. Well done. Only one question... Where on earth do you find hardwood pallets like those?!?
SO MUCH GLUE. WHY
I was using the super cheap glue from the big green shed so figured a bit extra was a good safeguard.
"My newfound love for woodwprkong is NOT a summer crush... I now find myself at work thinking about the long list of projects I want to get home and get started on..." 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This is brilliant! Will bring home some Ali angle lengths from work tomorrow
31:40 i did not think the hammer was that big😂
Well done on everything! I love the bench, your honesty, presentation style, and your video editing. But as I have some 20 odd years on you in age, my back was hurting watching you use your tools on the floor! Keep on doing what you're doing, and I know you will make a positive impact on the woodworking world. Cheers!
TIL Aussie pallets, and American pallets, are two very different kinds of pallets.
Great work, great vid.. no dowel gets left behind🤣
Haha thankyou. Glad you noticed that one. First time giving stop animation a crack ;) Was fun
I think we all know how to put a battery in a drill. No need to lengthen the video with that bit of info.
Gotta add some dramatic cinematography somewhere haha ;)
Hey, I just want to say your use of music, mostly from the RUclips Audio Library, was really well done. You made some really great choices.
Thankyou! Yes, the music is hard, especially when im only using the youtube library. Appreciate the kind words :)
15:58 Ugh ! why am I closing my one eye on monitor verifying its straightness… lol
Hahaha! Yeh it was about as perfect as I can get with my current tools I promise ;)
Bloody brilliant job comrad. We all make mistakes, I enjoy how you embraced them. Cheers!
Cheers mate! Im pretty well practiced at making mistakes now heh
Super nice. Congratulations. Big kudos.
Jeez if ONLY I could find palettes like those.
Unless your using the pallet Buster, I'd recommend you get a couple of $90 metal results from the big green box to work on. In 20 years your back will thank you
Yeh my backs already starting to complain so not a bad idea. Cheers!
Turned out very nice, great job! 👍🙌
The pallets you get there are so very nice compared to trash around my area. Unless you find a furnature store getting rid of pallets. Thanks for sharing your journey.
29:32 - there was no need for doing the mortices! You could cut the plank and leave the whole while gluing the bench top! Just use the same size of pallet plank for legs, than glue some planks around... You didn't have to do all this, unless it was for You a fun challenge, but it seems here you'd rather avoid it... So Im just saying You could avoid it :D
Thank you for your words, I just realized I have depression and watching woodworking and actually doing it makes me feel brand new if there is such a feeling. It's refreshing wow i did not realize how my mood changes until now. I'm 54 , the last time i did any big project was in Highschool. I've been making wood helicopters and airplanes for my kids along with building blocks and a table top for a fish tank but that's it. Time to get my garage organized so i can slowly start building larger projects like for example This amazing table you built which i need.
Flip flops in the shop? Instant subscribe!
A man of culture I see ;) Welcome aboard
As an American, the thongs are a nice touch lol cheers
Florida Safety Shoes are my go to shop shoes. ❤
Yes. I endorse this message ;)
Love the workbench! And your humor made it even better. I’m glad I’m not the only one who procrastinates out of fear 😂
Cheers mate. Yeh, I think I may be a little too good at procrastinating heh
Did your throat get better?
Only slightly ;)
I didnt realize at the beginning what the comments about the quality of the pallet was about but gahh dang ive never seen one like that in the us 😂😂
Yeh they are rare ones for sure. I used to know a factory that would get them in from time to time.
Stop wearing flip flops
Im mainly in work boots now, apart form on days like today where its close to 40.
bruh ur mental health struggles are evident. we’re all idiots that are blessed more than we deserve. give thanks and praise to the Lord, tell your family you love them and MARCH ON. thanks for the video. I appreciate you. Cheers from Texas.
Thanks mate. Yeh easy to loose sight of how lucky we are. Cheers
That chisel work scared me. Clap it, do t hold it with your hand. Otherwise, great build.
Yeh, much easier to not be lazy now I have a workbench to clamp things to :) Cheers!
