DiResta: Pallet Toolbox 

More gold!!!

Jimmy never ceases to impress. I love it when seemingly nothing but scrap turns into something of value

This makes it hard to look at wasted pallets now. Thanks for making and sharing.

Dude you are not just an artist,,,you are an ARTISAN,,,,Thank you Thank you Thank you,,,,,Im going to make one with my son,,,,

I very much appreciate the speed at which you show these videos. I can't sit and watch a tool box be made for an hour, but I can in five minutes. Great work. Thanks for sharing.

never get tired of seeing old wood coming back to life in new shapes

I love pallets. Our local hardware shop has a big area out the back where they put their pallets, and people are allowed to take as many as they want for free. Most are pine, but sometimes you get some really interesting wood in them. With hardly any effort - as you've shown - you can get some really nice looking timber that has a rustic feel to it. Some of the things I've made out of pallet timber is amazing. Shelves, tables, cupboards, side boards etc. Great to see you encouraging this sort of recycling, Jimmy!

Pallets are a shame to waste! Good work Jimmy! Love your videos!

You're doin' the Lord's work, Jimmy. Keep on keepin' on.

We made the exact same tool box at school but we did it all be hand no power tools and the side joints were had three dove tails. Nice work my friend inspiring!

I'm glad you were able to put up the Entire video this time and not just 2 min of it!

I love that you repaired the one split board. The glue will make it stronger than before.

How to reclaim a pallet 101. Always a learning experience. Great Job Jimmy!

Finish product looks wonderful. Now, I have another use for durable, hard pallet wood which so many folks trash. Thank you for this share.

WOW just speachless that you turned UGLY pallet wood into that beautiful toolbox !!! AMAZING

That's EXACTLY how I take pallets apart! The Nice-n-Easy way! Great project, thanks for sharing!

Jimmy, you never failed us. You really started the year with a great one. Are you going to do some more recycling projects like what you just did? Keep up the great job..

Tossing the axe in at the end made me remember the opening of the Woodwright's shop. Thanks!

Absolutely fantastic, hands down one of the best videos I've ever seen.

Great video Jimmy. I hope Make has you around for a long time!!!

Great work once again, Jimmy! I definitely want to try my own now, after watching this a few more dozen times.

I'll be nice to Mr. DiResta this year. DiResta, doing great stuff, with a Rolex on the wrist. :)

PELIGRO - CABEZAL DE CORTE... your work is freaking awesome Jimmy, I'm a big fan from Chile

I've never seen someone saw that quickly and accurately before, amazing!

These are always fun to watch.

I knew an old polish super in NYC who paneled his basement apartment with pallet wood, it was beautiful. I like the arched handle.

Amazing, I really like Jimmy's style and look forward to every MAKE DiResta:

Never fail to impress. Looks awesome. Happy New Year Jimmy!

I made the same type of tool box when I was building and installing kitchen cabinets. I just added a slot on the outside of the tool box to hold hand saws.

Good work as usual.. This may sound silly, but sometimes I miss plane, saw, and chisel joinery. Just something about knowing the tools on a deeper level. We've all seen knock out work from both camps of course. Maybe I'll go tune mine old stuff up and remember why I put it away.

Another great video. Just love it.

Oh thank god! I was beginning to get the shakes from DiResta withdrawal.

I love these pallet wood projects. As a senior on a fixed income, I can't afford to buy too much lumber.

at 1:30 the sound that the planer makes is definitely some sort of alien language.

You such a master carpenter....... i always enjoy your vids.

Love the fast forward!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sweet Tool box. Thanks for sharing.

The shot of the cross cut sled had me going for a second, thought you came up with a sliding blade saw of some sort. Love the bandsaw dove tails

Using hide glue in a rub joint when edge laminating the boards will save the time of clamping and waiting for the glue to dry.

No "Diresta" stencil on the end of it?

Nice tool box. Just like the one my grand dad had.

This man is truly amazing!!

I really like your videos and stuff you make. I make a lot of things using wood from pallet but I always save old nails and I bring them to the metal recycle centre. When you have a good amount of waste metal it's a pity to throw it away in the general waste

Awesome as usual Jim. Thanks for the New Year message.

Superb editing!

that pallet wood can really clean up!

very great jimmy diresta

Fantastic work JImmy! Happy New Year! Thank you for the weekly inspiration!

Even though i have 3 toolboxes already...i really want to make this

Gracias... Gracias... Gracias Maestro...!!!

Great video! To the point great editing. awesome upcycle project. One I will definitely do. Thanks!

felicitaciones carpintero por tan practico y util trabajo jorge de argentina

Awesome work!

Awesome as always... Diresta the band saw wizard! Happy New Year!

So awesome, wish I had a work shop.... One day!

Wonderful, great idea.

Oh my God! Its awesome, from a pieces of wood you build that box! I shocked.

This would be a mighty pain in the butt without all the nice tools you've got.

simple curve on the handle... huge difference in overall result! good one

You'd be able to fit a lot more stuff on the pallet! 😂 Great job Jimmy I love your work

Such talent!

I was like "But will my axe fit in it?" Then I was all "Hell yeah my axe will fit in it!"

Classic Diresta!

The wood in making the pallets is usually oak (white or red), something we value for it toughness and versatility. :)

One man's garbage is another man's gold.

I liked your work.

The hardest part of re-using pallet wood is removing the nails, ring shanks are almost impossible to remove, I never thought of just cutting through them like that !

esse cara tem estilo!

Sick. Absolutely sick.

Thats amazing,no one would you made it out of pallets unless you told them or they saw the video.

Thanks for making and have a good vape bro! ;)

Good work. When I see this, I would rather buy ready cut boards. He used a long time preparing the planks from the pallet, but I guess that is part of the transformation. Anyhow, very good job :-)

Frigging brilliant , reincarnated ship builder/cabinet maker ?

Mr D, you should build the ultimate pallet breaker/buster!!!! That's hard on your blade!!

beautiful.

Man you work fast!

Beautiful. Awesome.

Jimmy I like watching your videos in your creativity it's nice thanks for making the videos if I could have a lot of fun I like you can spot I like you house in the woods I miss the country

really nice!! great idea!!

jimmydiresta do you speak spanish? I have noticed that the warning sign in one of your machines is written in spanish ahaha! You are kind of an inspiration to me, for show to all the people getting things done! And beautifully done! Many thanks and keep up the fantastic work!

Hey Jimmy... this may be a stupid question to an old video, but... What is holding the two end cap boards, on each side, together besides wood glue? I saw you used brad nails for the bottom and side pieces, but should the wood glue fail under the weight of tools, the end caps will split and ruin the whole box. That aside it is a beautiful piece that would be great for decoration. You do good work!

Well done, sir!

thank you

Very nice, I wish I could work that fast!

Damn that looks nice.

I'll be making smaller versions of this design for my kids - once it gets a bit warmer;)

Cool project and a nice size. Cheers Tim from wood 4 nothing

Еще одна идея, применению поддону! Спасибо!

Top job again.

Jimmy a couple of questions and a comment. What brand of planer are you using? Do you/have you ever used a metal detector before a project like this for those "hidden" pieces of metal? Comment: I cannot help myself, every time I see your sped up video spots the theme song for Benny Hill comes to mind. Great work as always!

As usual, suburb work!

Olá amigo sou brasileiro, e estou acompanhando seus videos belo trabalho, muito bom mesmo, tambem faço alguma coisas em madeira, parabens

Hahaha i love how you throw the nails

Nice job. No matter how fast I work I cant go as fast as you. What kind of speed are you on?

awsome proj jimmy! happy new year!!

the sounds from this vid is hilourus . nice build like it!

Wow. Impressive.

Love it.

I would like to see more video's on cutting large dove tails with the band saw and table saw. Like a joinery how too video.

God damn this guy works fast
