#Viral #trends #pallet
Giving the table away after he’d agreed to pay buy it was mighty decent of ya. Prove your point and make a subscriber super happy. Job done!
Shoulda made that guy pay for it, now it’s worthless.
@@smicksmookety that makes no sense so if someone gives you A tv or computer as a gift and you don't have pay for it it's worthless ?? it's not an NFT its a physical object like a chunk of gold even if you found it or it was a gift it's still gonna have value
@@smicksmookety that's like saying any gift you've ever been given has no value because you didn't pay for it ?
what if you're gifted a car for free if that worthless too ?
@@brandonbritt99 Now anytime anyone goes to "buy" something from him they'll assume they'll get it for free, so now all of his furniture and his dog are worthless.
Huge planer name - CHEW-BACCA It chews wood its huge and the sound when wood goes through Its a no brainer and perfect!
can shorten it to Chewy :D
But it's a Wide Belt Sander though
Chew-barkka?
Tatooine! Get it, sand?
My planer just got its name hahaha
As someone who's repaired pallets as a job, I have never once seen someone break down a pallet properly!! ;P With this pallet you would pry off the bottom three boards, then use a hammer to knock off the bearers from the top boards, easy and quick.
This needs a video
@@cjamesfoxlots of them already
Love that you gave it away. Turned out to be a beautiful table. The dark stain was defintely the way to go.
If Mark allowed it, I would love for you to take a trip to visit his house, because that looked like something special from the couple of photos.
Looked like a modern home severely lacking in design. Functional, but ugly. At least it's not one of those ugly box homes with squares on top of rectangles next to squares. God those are disgusting.
@@elimgarak1127 I mean it's not exactly my cup of tea either, but it's not *terrible*-and at this point I'll take literally anything that isn't those hideously bland suburban style houses where it looks like the city planner just hit copy/paste 40 times. Overall-not my dream house, but a MASSIVE win considering the competition
I second this. It looks unique and I'd love a tour. Perhaps Mark has a KZhead channel?
Just call it Jordan, that when when it predictably goes wrong at some point we can still hear *DAMMIT JORDAN*
😂
thats awesome! hahaha
Just like Jordan I’ve several previous employers with “personality.”
What'd I do!?
That table is so nice! From the photos I would have thought it was one solid block of pallet wood. Good use of material 👍
i really enjoy your videos and how you include the real time involvement like cutting to your weekend and what not
Can we get a series on Mark's house? That was insane! Also with 75 man hours, 600 bucks, and no tool/consumables cost that's $8/hour... Yikes
Yeah just glossing over that house design is an absolute crime!
and people probably still think its overpriced
Did you see that first table on his computer for $68,000
Welcome to woodworking! :)
@@griffoutdoortv5882 It is.
That machine should be called Adam Sander.
You could have just stacked the panels @2:25, glued them together and polished it up to make a decent coffee table Ya'll going way above and beyond for these projects and I love it 😆
Dude was like, over the top excited about that table.....oh wait.......no he wasn't...
This table turned out amazing John. Reminds me of a vintage large butcher block table in a kitchen, but shorter and in a living room. Lol
That table was awesome! I really liked the pattern on the top. Very nice work from the master. You might name the Planer “The Big Bite”. That thing is cool.
Is that from eat it or yeet it? Haha
I used to build and repair pallets for a bit. You made it harder by cutting the boards before using the bar, honestly. When we used to pull them off we'd use a similar hoof shaped crowbar, start on the center stringer then pop the outer two just the same. The boards pushing on the stringers gave leverage you lost by cutting them down. At least in my memory it was easier lol
That table design goes extra well with that type of house. Nice.
Name the sander “S.O.B.” (Sanding Oversized Boards) Thanks for the videos, you entertaining S.OB, John!
“Sander of Boards” SOB
ha! BIG S.O.B. i like that one!
I name the belt sander jackie sand 😂 because it has a black belt in sanding
Mighty fine wood work there, with a nice table at the end. Recyclables rule!
Kept watching the video, kept getting reminded of that one YT content creator who built an off-grid cabin (complete with stove inside) using free pallets of wood. Took him a few months. But it looked good. Even had a bed inside. Support for the bed made from pallets.... So, guess that's the next project. Only instead of a cabin for one, a school house for orphans. An edumacation is important. 🙂
Feels like the tree went full circle with this one! Looks great
John's facial expression when he heard double or nothing was great
Beautiful table!!!! I got inspiration , i dont have enough tools but im going to try and make something!!
Lou certainly has a vintage Norm Abram vibe going on. Pure awesome!
That's huge; you probably could have sole that table for...ALOT, but instead you gave it to a subscriber, much respect John. I was think of a name for the planer; JANE-JANE THE PLANer.
Any link on Mark's house build?
Can you give us some tips on figuring out what a hardwood is and what a softwood is when looking at pallets.
Awesome video bro!! This was OG John at it’s finest! Keep em coming!!
Has to be sandy the dream maker 😂
Had to give it away.. he didn’t want to admit he worked for 8$ an hour 😂😂
Dude. You're kidding right. It was like $1/ hr...... hahaha I cant charge someone money for a table made from pallets, just not my style
Great looking finished product John. Would you supply some model info on the 3M respirator/face shield you were wearing when you took the table to Kutzall hell? Looked like a powered respirator.
use a Sawzall with a 12" metal blade and just cut the nails to release the slats from the frame wood. Simple matter of punching the head of the nail out of the slat wood. Depending on application you'll have much longer wood available for your project.
Thinking of a name for a monster size wood planer while sticking with the muppets theme, there’s only one option: SWEETUMS.
I think we all could get on board with SWEETUMS
Yes, top suggestion!
Name it Deion. Aka Deion Sander
Great name!
John, Love the video and great that you gave it away to one of your subscribers.
i came for the crazy builds but stayed for the references in the editing
what ingredients did you use fir down parts?
Call it The Smooth-inator. It's a machine that smooths...why the hell not.
I have listened to the sprayers🙌🏼🙌🏼, yet I have not send a video on what your set up is for it!
Hey john ive seen some others try these roll up chairs called Miesrolo chair, would be interesting to see your attempt at it
John made another project to sell this time, find a buyer and give to him. You have to love this dude
If you don't call the belt sander BOB for "Big ol Beltsander" you're missing out on a solid opportunity.
"Big Sandy" for the new wide belt sander. Works for a couple reasons and it's also the name of a town in Montana.
You can zip the nails off the back using a sawzall then take a nail punch the the holes on the back of the boards way easier than trying to nail pull the boards off. You get longer usable boards and the nail holes look kinda cool.
I am so glad even someone with more skill and tools than I has trouble breaking down a pallet. I don't know how people manage that on a regular basis.
That table would have looked even better with some shelves or drawers in the side. More than enough room for it. Maybe an idea for the future.
Mark's house is AWESOME!!! 🤩🤩🤩
That looks amazing, and to give it away is the best.
yooo we have some of those igloo style houses near here, they are awesome looking, just dont know about the utilization of space
I gotta try some power carving! Awesome looking table. How’d you like the smoke wagon bourbon?
Very impressive as usual. I would call the large sander KERMIT. Miss Piggy would be really happy 😉.
Pumba! You've got Miss Piggy and then the phrase "They call me Mr. PIG" came to mind from The Lion King.... So in connection with pigs go with Pumba!
I would’ve made smaller base to make the table look more elevated from the ground. However, it looks awesome!
Use a recip saw with metal blade and run between the boards and support to cut the nails Get the look and larger boards and quick, well worth it
What a cool table I totally want to build one now
Cool table made out of pallets, but can I see a video of that dude's house? It looks amazing! How about planer mc-planer face!
I know it has been a while since this video was made but I build stuff out of pallets too. Love the table was awesome. How is moisture levels in those pallets? And could it be a concern for me?
For the belt sander name it Boss Hogg. It's dressed in white big and loves to eat.
I love the stain you used on it! What is the name of it?
Your my friend are a dope person im inspired to do wood work great videos love your content god bless
Your workshop is amazing. I would be a kid in a candy store . 😅
Sweet Sally Sue. You gotta give your big machines a sweet name. 🤣
The coffee table came out awesome.
Hell yeah on the blue run! Sharing damn good whiskey! How many tables do you make for significantly smaller youtube channels 😂. For real great job on this one! Cheers man!
Belt sander: Big Woody. Cowboys wear belts, Woody is the most famous cowboy, arguably. 😂😂 and well wood working. Woody. You get it.
Name it Kermit, cause you already got Ms. Piggy.... just seams like the right thing to do
"Belty McSandyface" or "Sandy McBeltburger" "Drummo" or "Captain Expensive" or "Belto" or "Beltram Sanderson"
Call it either ‘The Colonel’ (Sanders) ‘Neon Deion’/‘Primetime’ or ‘Adam Sand-ler’!
i made clip boards out of pallet wood and sold them on etsy for 30$ and they sold pretty well
John I thoroughly enjoy your videos and your energy far more then a lot of other KZheadr woodworkers. We need more videos! Even if it's a vlog! Love you!
Well I'm glad you enjoyed his video but honestly it wasn't even good enough to be considered a woodworking video because the entire thing was talking and not much else.
The table was too small for my house, but if it was twice the size, and you shipped it to California, I’d buy it. It turned out to be a great looking table! And, the placement in it at your buddies house, was brilliant as it actually looked like an expensive table, and nobody would believe it was pallet wood. It would be cool if you designed it so the top opened.
Almost a good size for a end table. Alittle short tho
@@randybobandy9828 Agree on both counts!
The Wide Belt Sanders name should be Jordan 2.0, because if it messes up then you can still say, "DAMMIT JORDAN!"
A good name for the Drum sander I reckon. should be TRUE GRIT! Cheers, Rusty
Blue Run??!! Nice choice!
*watches this video on a monday morning. John: "Have a good weekend!" yeah, just 5 more days...
Call the sander David Hasselhoff. It’s down to be in the sand all day. When it’s time to sand it’s off the Hoff. When it fails it’s apart of the hassle of making awesome things.
That house is beyond awesome
Great Bourbon choice!
What you save in material you spend in labor. You know dude was definitely ready to buy the table to furnish his gorgeous new home. It'd be very fitting.
Whoa there - $600?! You're clearly underselling your product, as we know ALL youtubers should selling their pallet wood tables for at least $1000. And don't forget to take all the time you spend fixing your mistakes, and add all of it on to the final price. Otherwise it just doesn't meet the korley mert stamp of quality. (All snark aside, that table looks awesome, and good on John for giving it away!)
Another cool video! The name of the giant drum sander needs to be. "THE BIG SMOOTHIE"
bro this is looking sick
One of my must watch is Epic Upcycling and he only uses pallets. He is impressive!!
I think would look awesome with a natural stain (no color) just something to seal it. Also, what bourbon was that?
Sandy the belt sander!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the natural colour variations actually.
yes
I need to see more of marks new house!
Big Ol' Sanding Solution = BOSS.
One thing I don’t understand is that in morley’s video, he specifically went through quite a bit of time about pallet selection. Specifically looking for “older pallets with hard wood slats” and “avoiding pine”. The content is great regardless, but I find it odd that in these “recreation videos” that one of the key aspects to morley’s build is ignored.
Alright but a slightly smaller scale of this for a sink design would be phenomenal!
I'm 5 months late, but I vote the wide planer should be called Holga because she'll eat up anything. I'm sorry to ask the Holgas out there lol
not only were pics better but so was the finish
I can so relate to this journey, people expect a lot these days for their $$$ and the problem is caused by imported flatpack cheap non functional or durable disposable furniture that uses often unsustainable illegally sauced lumber, toxic materials left over from other manufacturing process. Not to mention they use a cheap / expendable labor force often working in unsafe conditions. Industry / Public Liability Insurance, energy costs, high wages means we can no longer produce what made our nations great. Furniture these days has lost its interesting unique qualities which gave rise to durability, functionality and style. My work I've restored and created is trying to bring back a standard to furniture that holds it's value now and in the future.
Just curious, does anyone know what brand of sanding disc thing that John uses to carve out the wood around the 7:10 mark here? I dont even know what they are called really.
The "i like turtle" was insane !! lmao
that table was well worth the money, probably more but it goes to show the work needed to make something like that. Even with free pallets, you wouldn’t make a penny if you account for the cost of man hours.
Name for the wide belt sander: The Crushinator (like from futurama) She looks like her!
BIG BERTHA For the sanding machine 😂
Very cool it was great of you to end up just giving it away to him for there house
