Mark… this might sound a bit dramatic…. But I was really into pallet projects as an idea, tried it, and hated it because of the time it took to disassemble and prep the wood. I wrote it off completely and just concluded I would have to dish out an arm and a leg on lumber to just practice and build any skill. I found your channel over the last few weeks… I’ve bought a pallet buster and used it today for the first time. Im giving it another chance. I feel like the pallet breaker will be a game changer and make it a better experience this time around!! Thanks for your channel and awesome projects! please don’t stop!!
i have to agree with the white-washed finish. sold a hall table with that finish and the lady liked it so much she commissioned me to build matching end tables as well.
Mark, lucky you to have access to pretty and colorful pallets. Here in Germany we just have pine and nothing but pine - in two different colors - dirty/old and new/clean ...
In Texas, we have pallets from Pine to Mahogany! And I use them all! The Oak and poplar are my favorites! I use my Harbor Freight planer first then sand them down to make them pretty. Then I used hide glue to keep them together better. Anna White for plans! I love her stuff! But use the handheld metal detector for those hidden nails do not put them in your planer without it!
Another top drawer video mate! You're absolutely right too, it's only woodworker types that are snobby about it, the people buying your furniture couldn't give a shiny shite what the material is because it looks awesome and does exactly what it needs to. You're smashing it too mate, absolutely out of the park, I'm absolutely stoked for you!
Palletwood pine in all it's glory! Clean it up, dress it up and just look at all the awesome pieces you have built with it! Takes a space up a few notches! Viewers/subscribers will truly be inspired by your videos.
saw these videos while looking for something to do with pallet wood, incredible! I am almost done with all the planning, tomorrow we begin the first project! thank you for the amazing content
Hey Bruv, if you buy any paint, get it "tinted" with white as well. All "tintable" paints are sold shy of volume because they are "designed" to be tinted. Just get artic white tint (pro tip) get artic white with 5ml additional black. It will make the white pop just right!
Once again an awesome video with a lot of info, tips and entertainment! But what impress me the most is how a complex (not sure if it is a word:) you are and make all that reference to other RUclipsrs and help the community!
Oh no! Another "Pallart" video! you are the gateway drug. Next Uncle Knacker and his awesome videos! Bad news! This week I got FOUR pallets home to smash for both firewood and slats, instead of last week's three. The grocer lady is practically shoving them on me! The entire pallet thing is growing on me and I see many possibilities now! So I have lots of pallets; free solar energy as I panicked about power cuts last autumn; a recycling centre which often has electric scrap - I have an electric planer from there. Your videos are gold for those of us too old to get proper jobs and want to work when the weather is too bad to cut lawns!
Took a drive today looking for pallets. You got me hooked got a circular was router clamps. Going to have a go at making box for our shoes. Thanks so must
I have used tips from you and your great heaps of video on pallet gathering, prepping and projects over the past years. I loved your silicone spatula idea so much I adopted it for my own. Also your table saw squaring jig.
I LOVE your positive spirit in these newest videoes, great improvement over your first videoes a couple years old. Keep up the positive spirit, keep making happy videoes, having great diy content like this.
Loving the vids, giving me dinner great ideas - thanks. Have you thought about doing one out and about finding pallets, choosing the best ones and identifying the types of wood? Thanks again
I've only just found your channel and I'm so glad. I'm a young woodworker so pallet timber is also just about everything I have. Eventually I hope to do the same thing you do as a business for myself. Seems like a dream come true (besides the nails)
Would like to see how and what you seal them with .... what type of poly ? Brush ? Roll ? Spray ? Hit us with a "sealing" video !! Love the work mate keep it up
I think the best piece of advice in this video is that people generally don't care what it is made out of. Just that it looks cool. Once you start going down the rabbit hole you are really tempted to get the high end materials. Remember a lot of people buy overpriced composite board furniture.
Thanks for showing your dust extraction in the background I was the same at timbecon also that let fence jig. I’m collecting as many tips and ideas as possible to build up the courage to make my first table. Your best tips are showing how to make them join. Again really appreciate your fantastic videos
Love your videos. I had done some pallet projects, but you incentivized me to go make some more, so I can afford some more tools/machines for my shop. Thanks a lot!! Love the way you give credit to other guys' chanels
So I found a way to "clean up" pallet wood while still leaving a rough finish. a wire wheel. Especially for pine, it beats all the splinters, dirt and other stuff off. depending on how aggressive you get, it leaves a smooth, but very textured finish with the natural wood grain.
Mate, you are great! Know that! Thanks for your honest share. And you are right, lots of people look for these items nowadays, because they indeed look really cool 🤙🏻
Great video good to see others putting what is considered waste to good uses. To all you would be pallet hunters if you have a ute or big trailer , a fantastic resource is the wooden pallet/frame that ATV 's get imported in.Here in Australia ,my local motorcycle dealer used to pay to dump them at the tip, i just called in one day when i seen them piled up and asked them what they did with them . They could not give them to me fast enough , took my mobile number and ring me when they have them.These pallet range in size from 2.4 m up to 4m by 2.2 m wide for the biggies made up of 2x4 , 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 , and various smaller sizes.These are Kawasaki and Cam ams brands ( have no idea what the other brands do,i get so many i have never bothered to check elsewhere) , some of the timber in these pallets is beautiful and the best part , they are all kiln dried and heat treated.Thanks Dainer you make some fantastic videos , i have watched most of them.
@@dainermade yep , these are single use only ,custom made to fit the side by sides, the kawasaki ones have 2 x solid 90 by 90s running down the guts ,up to 3.6m long unbelievable they use to go straight to the tip to be turned into wood chips.Great channel one of my favourites
Thought I recognised the little straightening jig at the start ;) Thanks for the plug mate. They make for the best profit margin too when the cost is only a little labour :D Also, no pressure if you bugger them up, there are always more :P
Great video. Totally agree with the pine pallets. Awesome stuff. I will say though there is nothing worse than a pine pallet which is full of that sappy crapy that will gum up your blades etc.
Yes! I grabbed a couple of pallets a while ago that when I went to clean them up, were absolutely FULL of that crap. A lot of those boards went into the fire pit. It melted and bubbled up like a champ in the fire! Burnt with a nasty black smoke though...
Little tid bit for the peoples. Avoid sanding a surface if you are going to use a bladed edge after. The grit will break off and some of it embeds into the wood. This does make bladed tools blunt much quicker. If it can sand wood it can sand your nice sharp blade.
Top video again Mark. Using the hand plane for a weebit exercise , does make you feel better within yourself ay😅🤣. During the years of making all that you have made from pallet materials , have you cared about grain direction and if it makes any difference when machining pieces?
I've discovered your channel through Jesper makes. I've been interested in pallet woodwork for a while (like years) and I can't believe YT didn't recommend such a quality channel before. In Europe, there are far far less non pine pallets than in the southern hemisphere. I am currently using a stock of palletwood that I scavenged over 10 years ago, coming from Indonesian pallets (used to work on building a solar farm, with solar panels coming directly from Indonesia) to build myself a desk. I kind of disagree with you on pine. It is a bit dull, but the blueing of the wood because of mushrooms *can* make it much more interesting, and it would be a shame to hide it. Also there are all kinds of "pine". It can tend to get closer to pink (douglas pine) red, orange, white, with wider or thinner grain. You don't need to paint it, or hide it. However, as you said in several videos, people need to learn to just not pick uninteresting pallets up, unless they plan to use them for hidden parts. There *are* interesting pine pallets out there, you just need to keep the eyes open and be patient. Cheers and keep up the good work!
Great video, looking forward to the next one. FYI- I think you e added the wrong link for James. I'm looking to make some jigs so thanks for recommending it.
New sub, recently dropped carpentry for wood working(less of a scope, more finer detail work, and can do majority from home instead of site based). Have been popping thru Bunnings on the regular now 😂😂 I take it your only use heat treated pallets and not chep/loscam ones? Have seen a few nice looking chep/loscam pallets but don't wanna step on toes
What are your thoughts on using a handheld power planer for squaring and surfacing the boards? It's got to be easier than sanding and much more affordable for most beginners and those who can't afford a bench top planer.
Hi mark great channel, I’m about to undertake a bar top and like the waterfall edge, What have you found to be the best thickness for the slab glue up, cheers Troy
Love your content. Here in Florida. Been pallet hunting for about a year now. I have. Never. Seen pallets with slats that thick. Best I get are slats half or 1/3 as thick. Guess that just means I need more glue....heh.
Thanks for another good video Mark. I actually like the look of pine, is that weird? Wait, don't answer that. Anyway mate, keep up the good work. All the best, Brian.
What do Italian chickens wear to bed?? Parma-jamas! Another great vid! Pine is the only wood you can buy here outside of a specialty shop, so I kind of think of it as the benchmark for decent wood.

I've got a similar straightening jig that works great. The handle idea is duh..I typically use the other clamps to help run it through. Will be adding a handle shortly😀
Hey Mark, I'm enjoying your videos. I'm self-taught on wood working as a productive hobby and potentially money making with pallets only. At the moment I don't try to optimize the hourly rate as I learn but more to refine the technique.

@@dainermade it's a double one and yes the car has to go but there are other things like a freezer. I've been talking to the house boss and probably can make some more space after decluttering a bit, and maybe split into two with the space under the house using it as storage. Thanks!.
so if youre moving on from the sander/hand plane combo, which is next best for flattening/squaring, is it the jointer/planer combo or just the table saw? from a value perspective is the table saw the best allrounder?

Great content mate, i have been making pallet furniture for about 6 years now but im nowhere good as you. Can i ask what glue do you use? I have tried most PVA glue's from bunnings but after a few years the joints start to open up. 😁
Aye mate....you people from down under talk funny.... but your videos are top notch! i am finding pallet wood a god send when the wallets low on project funds. bought a lot of tools but haven't put them to work yet....let's give it a try see how this all works out...

Yep many a time i have cut those boards all wonky lol, check square!!
Lol 😂
Yet another great video and just what I was after as all I can find is pale pine pallets with little colour variation.
That em right back at beginning your pulling slats from usually come in three or four bits pet pallet
Your videos are awesome! Very comprehensive and informative!
So I found a way to "clean up" pallet wood while still leaving a rough finish. a wire wheel. Especially for pine, it beats all the splinters, dirt and other stuff off. depending on how aggressive you get, it leaves a smooth, but very textured finish with the natural wood grain.
Good tip.
Use the radial brushes with the twisted wire though. They hold together better than the twist knot cup type.
Im a new subscriber, love the content, thanks so much. Also nice to see/hear aussie accent, way more relatable for me.
I work on a farm, we go through lots of pallets. We get about 50 pallets a week minimum. All pine.
OMG, I've been following Uncle Knuckers for years too!
"More bigger things" haha love it
