@o.g.bwoodwork doing good mate ,one more year of hormone therapy and 6 months(so far) PSA blood tests. Consultant very happy how the treatment has gone...Happy days.😃
@@alicat398 yes, I always try to dry the boards out before building anything. I do this by stacking the wood and placing sticks in between each board every foot and put weights on top of the stack.
It depends on a lot of factors: 1. How dry the wood was when it was built 2. How it’s been built 3. Where the table is kept in your house or a customer’s house. 4. If the table is looked after with oiling and waxing over the years.
@o.g.bwoodwork Doing OK thanks mate.I finished my cancer treatment the middle of February, had a couple of one foot forward and two back,had a blood test last week and my psa level was 0.10 and was told no further action to be taken...Happy days lol
@@o.g.bwoodwork looks good, as long as those cracks dont get any bigger, it has a nice rustic look. i was also wondering what song is playing during the video?
@@MWG603sorry I misread your original comment. The song is ‘katarsis - she past away’ Thank you, I’m going to keep an eye on the cracks, but they shouldn’t get much bigger as the moisture level is quite low. I might stabilise them soon as well.
You’re right, there are some cracks in this board, but as this board is very dry, they likely won’t get too much worse. I checked them and they aren’t fragile and don’t want to break off or make cracking sounds. One last thing I’ll do is strengthen areas where possible.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊. Of course. The steps are: 1. Source pallets and pallet wood by breaking down pallets 2. Create a base and possibly walls with whole pallets 3. Join all of the whole pallets with either pallet boards or metal mending brackets. 4. Use the broken down pallet wood for the sides by lapping them over each other (like a shed or barn lap). This is usually done by starting at the bottom and working up. 5. Create a roof , this can be done with pallet boards or a quicker method is to use OSB or plywood sheets. 6. Add shed felt to the roof 7. Make doors out of pallet boards. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any more questions.
Nice, but misleading. That first piece of wood is not from a pallet. Almost impossible to find a pallet with slats wider than about 5” - too narrow for two bottles abreast.
You know what, you’re bloody right. I think that might be an old gravel board. Sorry to mislead, it wasn’t my intention. Thanks for the comment and have a good one 😊
Thank you. For leg supports I would use something not as thick as scaffold boards. A lot of the time I would use gravel boards, but sometimes I would use pallet wood if it was strong enough.
Great job mate! I was wondering if You were to run the scaffold boards through a planer would that take away too much of the rustic look? Im a blacksmith but starting to add it in some woodwork for coffee tables.
Thanks mate! Yeah, you’re right. It removes all of the rustic charm from the scaffold boards. A blacksmith! Awesome! Can’t wait to see some video from you on here.
Thank you! Best place to start is Facebook marketplace. Search ‘reclaimed scaffold boards’. If that fails, search google for your local small timber merchants. Hope this helps 😊
Fantastic video, I'm going to make a work top for my lads bedroom (ps5 an all that jazz!) Using dowels instead of biscuit joints seems miles better. Keep up the good work fella 🛠👍
Thank you very much! I agree dowels are miles better than biscuits. Dowels add strength and alignment, whereas biscuits add no strength. Good luck and Let me know how you get on with the table.
Is this video meant for deaf teenage boys in a punk band? If this is meant for adults with normal hearing, kindly refrain from this obnoxious deafening music. The only reason men put this kind of music on their DIY videos is to advertise their insecurity and inadequacies. Huge turn off, huge.
It would be a little harder, but I didn’t have a wood cutting bit for my dremel at that time, so I couldn’t say for sure. Do you have a wood cutting bit for yours?
@@o.g.bwoodwork not yet. My current major use for Dremel is nail trimming for my dogs, lol. Am very much leaning towards getting a jig saw for guitar shelf making… perhaps also an oscillating multi-tool to get a clean start to removing the guitar top… I like how the fretboard was left on in the video.
@@jwukulele I think you’re right. A jigsaw would probably be the best tool for the job. You can the hole started with anything really, you can even use a jigsaw surprisingly, but it’s a bit risky.
@@o.g.bwoodwork Thank you. Not yet as I need to complete the application, but right now I’m just focused on growing my channel without ads and getting paid through affiliate marketing. 👍
Hi Michael. Thanks for leaving a comment. If you look for my longer form content, you should see some ‘how to’ style videos and I usually show all of the tools I use for each project. If you can find what you’re looking for, let me know and I might create it for you.
