I built a new table

(1/5) > >>

lukemk5gti:
I had a few extra large pallets in work from some heavy equipment that was installed. It's always a shame to throw these pallets into recycling so I decided to make a table with them this time around.

Two hours to dismantle all of the pallets.

A couple of simple cross joints for the table legs with one support bar and some old reclaimed bolts




Several hours of cutting and drilling the 40 plus sections for the benches. Had to recess the top and bottom sections so the nuts and washers were hidden in the wood.




Didn't use any glue, nails or screws. All precise cuts relying on the tension from pulling the bars together with a nut/washer either side


A quick sanding to angle the edges


All done. I just need to pick up some varnish now to finish it.

Shipping would be the deal breaker, the vice only cost £18 then shipping from my office to spain cost £30.
