Oh so many tips in this video. Firstly it was great to see where you actually pick up pallets and how you select the good ones. I have been guilty of just taking the whole pile, but has definitely been getting more picky lately. Also your methods of breaking down and cleaning them up are world class. I have just recently gotten the Air locker, what a difference! I was great to see how much 19 pallets can actually produce, and I can't wait to see the last magical pallet. Cheers from Denmark 🇩🇰
Once again your optimism & humor restore my soul. I will point out : I leave a couple/three pieces long on each end when I’m gluing up for the snipe that sometimes shows up in my Thicknesser! When the batch are all uniform, then I trim the ends off even.
Just for people in the UK (I am not sure anywhere else) but the blue pallets are Chep Pallets. They are a special company that insures the pallet so if items on that pallet breaks because of that pallet they will pay out for it. The wood on them are amazing BUT they are owned so you have to check before grabbing that you can take it.
In some places, it is illegal to sell, throw away, ship to other companies or even have in your possession without the bill showing you bought these pallets. If Chep are told, they can send someone over and then send you a bill for it if it is true.
The first thing is loving what you do, no matter what it is enjoy it. I watch your video`s and see the joy you get out of woodworking with pallet's and that is what it is all about. Cheers Mark.😀
A neighbor remodeled their kitchen. I got all the "one time use" pallets. I have made a couple of sofa tables and other items and still have plenty of timber left. Great find.
I'm only 6 minutes in, but I'm glad you got the expert in to explain about the timber. I've wasted countless hours researching pallet trees, to no avail. Now I know why! Given that my nearest Green Shed is a cut lunch and water bag away, I'll have to make do with that old blackbutt and jarrah shit that's been lying round for half a decade. I reckon it'll scrub up OK! Time for another beer, and the rest of the video. Cheers, Mark! Good to see Sumo's keepin' an eye on yer!
I have to say I completely agree on working with pallets/crates. It's more challenging. It's also incredibly rewarding to see a project take shape knowing all the while, I made it with what to be garbage. I have a hobby that's rewarding in more than one way.
What I've learnt from this video, 1. My pallet breakdown technique needs some work 2. A "thicknesser" and mitre saw would be handy tools to have 3. I also need to work on my glue technique. Thanks for the vid Mark and thanks for your tip the other day.
I made a pallet buster like you have with flat bar and a pipe at the rear to rotate on, I found the easiest way is remove outer edge of boards first then move into the middle and remove the middle. The boards lift if the middle is off first but the middle you have both sides of your pallet buster to lift it off and it's even pressure.
I look just casually at your pallet selection and I noticed what great condition they're in. It's important to start with the best product possible, even when the product is "free", when you're going to end up spending/investing soooooo much additional time into preparation. I live within a few hours of many small lumber yards that produce lots of different types of lumber for various purposes. Sometimes it's easier to get supplies from those guys, than it is to find 25 "perfect" (or at least mostly usable.) pallets.
I've started getting picky on pallets as well, although I work in a business district that many places leave their pallets by the road. It's easy to drive through the area every couple days and grab 2-4 pallets at a time.
Yeah nah yeah! I learned this myself when I priced my first commission that you need to put a figure on your own time, and you've just shown that. Pallet wood free, but at the cost of time, however it's time doing something you enjoy so sort of balances itself out! Love your work!
Idk if you’ll see this but i’m a 17 year old kid from this little island in the caribbean called Trinidad, my dad used to work as a delivery guy at DHL Express and he collected a heap of pallets throughout his 18 years of service and boy oh boy did you just gave me every ounce of hope to make some cash while simultaneously learning the art of woodworking, i’ve been watching you for 2 months now and i am insanely inspired by what you do mark, love from Emilio from Trinidad❤🫡
Regardless of what you're making, I love that you're making good use of these pallets which would rot otherwise - we should all be trying to recycle like this.
I got those clamps after seeing Ben's video and use them every day now. I've even drilled a glory hole in the middle of my bench so I can hold things down from both sides with them! Great video.
I work at a paper company so I have access to lots of pallets, which I’ve used for years to make stuff. I get to high grade them and use the work truck to take them home. Recently I was picking up pallets from the pallet mill itself because we sell them retail to customers. Anyway I saw a large pile of wood and it looked like scrap. I asked the guy loading me and he said I could have all I want, they just grind them and sell the chips for fuel. So now I get my wood without having to break down pallets. That’s my tip. Find a pallet mill and see if they will allow you to take scraps. Good stuff man. You definitely make the most of those pallets. Cheers!
I found another 5 bags of pallets this weekend, It was like finding gold, I've just started on a different site and they are about to have 106 pallets of bricks delivered, champion, excellent vid as usual
Way to get after it Mark! Thanks for documenting your time put into every step. I agree with you on is it worth the time. I think in this crazy world we live in so many people are focused on money as there only form of happiness. I can truly say that putting in the work on something that brings yourself happiness is the best form of payment there is. Looking forward to that 20th pallet build! Cheers!
Fantastic, can't wait to see what they become (and what's under the blanket...). I'm glad to see you chopped off your spatula. I tried the spatula thing but quickly switched to dough scrapers because they're not rounded. Thanks for brightening my morning, Mark! Now I'm off to order those quick clamps...
Harvestasion. Deconstructivization. Straightenasation. Thicknesserizationing. Gluerizing. Slaberifying. Cutttingtheendofftidying. Moneytization. Now you need to makerfy something. How about going back to your valued customers that already bought a hallway table and make them some shelves to match. Could you imagine slicing the slab like a loaf of bread. Lean all these slices over at 45 degrees and glue them back together again. That would make a triangular bumpy slab. Then you cut it like you were going to put a burger in a bun and you have 2 shelves with a flat top and a decorative triangular pattern underneath. Watched this mesmerising video three times at least. Mark keep safe from the typhoons and can't wait to hear about 20.
Nice one again, Mark. Jammed pack with so many useful tips! I have dismantled around 5 pallets, all waiting for glue up! On the blue pallets, I learned that they are owned by CHEP, and shouldnt be used (or they can sue you or something to that effect)
I take them all. The good wood gets saved for projects the culls are used to keep my family warm. About 15 percent of the nails can be reused. The rest recycled.
Well just fyi, I use a reciprocating saw with a metal cutting blade and get between the boards and cut the boards , makes taking apart pallets almost effortless, now the nails do stay in the wood but you can disassemble one in like 5 mins if not quicker.
FYI, do a light sanding on all the boards before cutting and running through the planer. These boards normally have a lot of sand and rocks in the grain which will eat through saws and planer blades and we all know what planer blades and saw blades cost :)
Great video, and I like some of the tactics you use (the straight rip sled is a great speed enhancement over my regular sled). I have gravitated to cast-off furniture to get raw materials instead of pallets because they need less processing overall. The look is a little different, but I like it.
Another 🇩🇰 here. (Actually I'm Irish but live here). I'm a bit jealous of the quality pallets you have. I just processed about ten using a 1970 Emco Star. It took a couple of days.
@@dainermade Emco star is one of those old, multi function machines, disc and belt sander, bandsaw, table saw, thicknesser/planer, lathe, grinder etc. It's a useful old girl. I had to sharpen the planer blades which are the originals from 1970!
These offcuts you send to the green waste bin, could be cut up and bag up to sell as kindling. Great way to make a bit of extra coin to buy tools , glue or whatever you need
Hi Mark, as usual highly informative and yes inspirational,collecting pallets for a while know and have to agree heaps of pine out there harder wood is harder to find 😅😅pardon the pun but when you score a real beauty like I did last week 5.4mt of merbau you think struck GOLD, what a beauty. Thanks Mark for a great vid. P. S. Wish I could slide across the floor again. Cheers
Awesome demonstration, what a class act sharing this hard earned knowledge with us. Thanks for the translation as well Mark, definitely needed for us poms.
As always, very informative and entertaining :-) I love to break down pallets but I’ve always been scared of hitting a nail. I have very minimal tools.
That's a lot of products waiting to be made and a lot of timber saved from the dump mate. It will also translate into happy customers and a happy Dainer so it's just smegging winning all round! Good to know you'll be able to escape the whinging family in a blackout and head to the shed too with the Eco-Flow.... 🤣🤣
Mark, I am pulling out what hair I have left. I am having great dramas getting the pallet wood square and level. I have a jointer and thicknesser (just to upset the yanks) and can't seem to get a straight edge on any of the spacers or cross bits. Suggestions are now open to save my hair. Oh and I am in Emergency Services too
Without playing with your machines, I can’t really know mate. Get a nice straight edge on jointer and check square. If they leave the jointer wrong they’ll stay wrong
So all those skinny scraps would make great bundles of kindling. Cut them about 12” make a 6” in diameter bundle. Save them all spring summer and fall, then for winter sell them to your local shops with a QR code to your website(additional marketing benefit). Use all the money to buy your shop new toys.
I'm in Brisbane. What I'd like is someone to sit under my house with me, drink my beer, eat my food, and give me a enough confidence to know that I'm on the right tack and that it's worth me doing something like this, by knocking out a couple of things and getting them sold. I've got all the tools (with the exception of a planer/thicknesser, and some are even hand me downs from my father-in-law) but lack the confidence to sit under the house and work away. (I mean, if I could get a start, then I'd happily work away by myself.)
Lol.. 20 pallets at the start of cyclone season..... me too.... I'm building a shaded potting structure from my collection.... I have full shade until 8.30am so I'm up out at 5.30am! Then I can make an extended shade area so I can work outside... I'm also going to buy a denailing gun.... my shed is a container for now so I need shade area to work under.
I’ve been using pallets for a while now and definitely enjoy the hunt as much as any other part of it. Question: where is the best place to get wood glue for all the gluing involved? Don’t need anything high end just something to bind it all together and in a gallon container preferably. Thanks boss you do good work keep truckin!
I'm interested in starting my woodworking journey as well. You've convinced me I think pallets are a good place to start. Subscribed! P.S the TH-camr "martincitopants" sounds like your son! 😂
Pallet wood is what I used to convert a cheap van into a backpacker's camper that I flipped for five times what I paid for it. Pallet wood, poor man's fiberglass and a bit of 12v wiring.
Hey Dainz! Great Video, and my first comment. BTW Lived in TSV for 3 years; awesome place, but now in Melbourne. You gave some super tips and much encouragement... you beauty, cobber! I am collecting lots of pallets and making things with them, but obviously NOT a salesman, 'cause I'm not selling much. Any tips for reaching a larger audience? I have the tools: Table saw, Mitre saw, Thicknesser (helical 13" x 6"), etc. Can make wooden trains for toddlers, Christmas Decorations (trees, churches, stars, snowflakes). My Retirement hobby, but would like to make some money too. Keep up the great work and super content. Regards, BAMPS
Hard yakka Mark! Loved your waterfall table vid. It really helped me with a turntable/vinyl collection display stand type thing I had to make with chunky pine and mitrered dowelled corners. I even went so far as to chamferize it 🤣
So helpful to see 19 pallets broken down. Thank you again for doing this! Probably could speed things up if we choose similar style pallets...would it be easier or harder to use newer pallets?
`Great vid Mark! I've been stalking your channel for a while and am about to start unashamedly ripping your ideas off :) It's been about 30 years since I last did anything in the way of woodworking but your videos have inspired me to have a crack using pallet wood to relearn. It also doesn't hurt that I can afford good tools now!! Thanks for all your content, as seeing an Aussie doing this sort of stuff is soooo much more enjoyable than yet another American
I've been saying for years. 'Australian' is a different language! And when you have a famous guest star, it proves my point. Your guest today did not speak the same 'dialect' of Australian that you do.
@@dainermade I’ll be getting back into it properly soon, just need to buy an actual camera and not use my iPhone 😆 Great video though, was excited for this one and that’s some big bars of gold!

hey mate, just saw the chopping board video, absolutely brilliant.
Sometimes a subtle reminder is helpful😝
@@burnu2240 me too. It's a life lesson right there.
Here's a challenge, try making a full size dining room table with matching chairs with the wood
Cant wait t0 see this last magical pallet too and the stamp to see what country it came from.
Once again your optimism & humor restore my soul. I will point out : I leave a couple/three pieces long on each end when I’m gluing up for the snipe that sometimes shows up in my Thicknesser! When the batch are all uniform, then I trim the ends off even.

I'm glad someone can do something with pallets. I've only worked on disassembling a few and hate them. Of course I didn't have that tool.

I've been stalking your channel for a while and am about to start unashamedly ripping your ideas off :) It's been about 30 years since I last did anything in the way of woodworking but your videos have inspired me to have a crack using pallet wood to relearn. It also doesn't hurt that I can afford good tools now!!
Thanks for all your content, as seeing an Aussie doing this sort of stuff is soooo much more enjoyable than yet another American
09:56 $924 of "labour" time ... with $5k of equipment. 💰
still awesome to see and way more environmentally friendly than buying virgin lumber. ❤
Great job and video thanks for sharing enjoyed it Cheers
I've been saying for years. 'Australian' is a different language! And when you have a famous guest star, it proves my point. Your guest today did not speak the same 'dialect' of Australian that you do.
Epic video!
You may have already done one but have you got a budget video for gear on getting started with a workshop?
I got pretty excited when I saw the can of spray paint, I was hoping for gold! The only gold here is the content Mark uploads! 😆
@@dainermade I’ll be getting back into it properly soon, just need to buy an actual camera and not use my iPhone 😆
Great video though, was excited for this one and that’s some big bars of gold!
Most excellent video
