+Ben Lucas I based it off of the one made by Steve Ramsey. He's got an excellent video about it on his channel th-cam.com/video/0UQaEpTZG-o/w-d-xo.html
I love the way you explain your projects. Please continue to follow your teaching instincts, because your style of instruction is very valuable to curious beginners like me.
I like the painted inside faces, Bob. My sister-in-law's in-laws have tons of trays in their house. English is a funny language isn't it. For example "...would wood to wood." I like it a lot. Good vid
+Sean Rubino the little pop of colour really makes it!
9 ปีที่แล้ว +2
+Sean Rubino How about Swedish: "Får får får? Nej får får lamm", which translates to "Does sheep get sheep? No sheep get lambs". Får = Sheep, får = gets :)
hehe... I screwed mine up I realise, it's supposed to be: "Får får får? Nej får får inte får, får får lamm" ... "Does sheep get sheep? No sheep doesn't get sheep, sheep gets lambs"
Lifehack: make one that exactly fits in your kitchen cabinet so you can put on everything needed for breakfast. This way you can bring it all to the table at once instead of walking 3 times
looks good bob. i have a benefit im going to nov 21st and volunteered to make a few small/med sized projects for the raffle theyre having. i think this or something like this is definitely going on the list. everyone loves a nice looking pallet project. thanks for putting the idea in my head. i woodnt of thought to make this.
Nice looking tray Bob. I stocked up on too much pallet wood this summer, so I appreciate the ideas/inspiration. I really like the combination of painted and bare surfaces. Good work.
+Ben Brandt Thanks Ben! Yeah, adding a pop of bold color really changes pallet projects quite a bit in my opinion. It actually helps them attract an entirely new type of buyer as well, if you're selling them.
Should be mentioned to look for the ippc code when choosing which pallets to use. Anything stamped (HT,KD or DH) is safe, anything with a MB (methyl-bromide) is not. If the pallet is not stamped it should not be used. It wasn't until 2003 in the US that it became standard practice to not use arsenic in pressure treatment of even residential grade lumber. Not a guarantee that it could be unsafe, but with sanding and cutting you would definitely want to take some extra precautions. No troll, just adding some constructive info. Still a great build and one of my favorite channels. -Chris
+effreek It's definitely something you need to be aware of when working with pallets, but it's also one of those things that I can't mention every time I use them in a video. There has been quite a bit of discussion around it on TH-cam, so I didn't feel the need to rehash it. Generally though, I only grab them if they're marked HT (heat treated)
Same here! I think there is too much fear mongering in the pallet usage world where misinformation abounds. . . Thanks for all the great projects! This one made me learn something new again. Keep them coming!
Pretty cool, you could also use your X-carve to make the side panels with handle holes. This would give a possibility of intricate top curve shapes. And take away the need to chisel a straight line.
Great video gave me a good idea I made 16 of the serving trays and I used my xcarve to carve themes on the tray of what each person is known for. Then we gave them out as Christmas Gifts. they loved them.
Again a nice little project nicely achieved in a nice little video. I just noticed the potentially dangerous kickback effect at 0:35, I will think about it when I get my own cutting table O_O +I Like To Make Stuff Were you aware of that risk at the moment you used that sled ? I suppose this is related to the sled...
+Alexandre EYLER Good eye. That happened so quickly, I missed seeing it at first. Notice that Bob was wisely leaning out of harms way. :D There are two schools of thought on blade height. Bob has kept the blade just above the workpiece, with the idea that there's less dangerous blade sticking up to shear off appendages. With the blade lower, there's a bit more chance for kickback because the horizontal angles. The other school says to set it higher so that the leading edge is cutting closer to straight down and the trailing edge is closer to straight up, reducing kickback risk a bit. It's a trade-off, either way.
+Barry's Workshop So there is no "best way" of doing it... In some videos I saw people recommending to set blade height never more than 3 millimeters higher than the workpiece. But some other "older" woodworkers prefer have the blade quite high... As you say, Bob was in a secure position, so I guess he knows the risk :)
+Alexandre EYLER I noticed that as well, replayed few times, look like he's aware of it and kept himself out of the way? **zip!** table nice and clean, ready for next cut lol :D
+jumpleadsx2 I'm a former cabinet maker with more hours on the tablesaw than I can count. I've been using the table saw both professionally and as a hobbyist for over 40 years. I say that not to impress you, but to let you know that I do have some experience with this topic. Please keep in mind that the section of the video you're discussing is sped up quite a lot. It's not as dangerous as it looks. Agreed - it looks like that edge Bob was trimming off shot out of there at extremely high speed, but I doubt that really was the case. With the jig placed against the fence, the waste being trimmed off has room to fall away from the blade as it's cut off. That rarely, if ever, leads to a piece of waste coming off the blade at high enough velocity to hurt anyone. I guess it could happen, but in over 40 years of using the tablesaw, I've never seen it happen. Kickback, on the other hand, is an extremely dangerous condition, and it is a very real thing - I've seen it first hand, and it's scary as hell to even witness, let alone experience. It happens, however, when the waste is trapped between the blade and an obstruction (like the fence or a jig) that forces it back into the blade, where it is then violently thrown back in the direction of the blade's rotation at high velocity. The jig Bob uses allows the waste to fall away from the blade - there's nothing else there to trap it or force it back into the blade. The video shows that the waste can get pulled backward (and that's quite common) but it's moving at such a low velocity that even if it did hit you, you may or may not even notice it. BUT! BUT! BUT! Having said all of that, you're all correct - stand to one side, out of "the line of fire" and you'll be much better off. Part of the training I got on the tablesaw when I first learned how to use it was just that - positioning yourself so that you're not in line with the piece being cut in case the worst happens. In essence, I'm saying that the jig Bob used is perfectly safe PROVIDED that you use common sense and follow the normal safety procedures that you would follow any other time you use the table saw. Time to be serious here - if you don't know what those procedures are, learn them. Take a woodworking course at a local community college or something. Classes are much cheaper than a trip to the emergency room (even if you have insurance) and you'll be taught how to use the tools safely. Plus, you'll have full access to a complete workshop - a win for everyone.
+Mark Lindsay Wow, how long did you take to compose that comment! Haha :D Pretty much agreed on how table saw operate and common sense. Thank you for taking your time to post a comment :)
I have hesitated if buy spray lacquer or just use polyurethane, but I now definitely going to buy it, it looks awesome. thank you Bob. gratings from Canada.
Thanks for making this a simpler project. I enjoy watching all of your vids, including the CNC ones, but this one really seems like one I could tackle this weekend and, I probably will!
*Hi Bob, Which videos are the cutting with the angle grinder (**0:05**), burning the wood with the torch (**0:07**), and soldering the circuit board (**0:08**) in that are in the intro? Thanks and I LOVE your vids, I make almost everything*
Bob, nice project. I agree with you about spray lacquer, I use it as a top coat on almost all my projects. Thanks for the video. Paul, a.k.a. paulsmessyworkshop on TH-cam
cool! hey, can you do more videos without using those machines? I'm from Chile (south america) and those are very expensive. i really like your vídeos, but some times the things you show looks very easy but because you have good equipment. Thanks for promote creativity!
I am a First timer Diy'er and wanted to know how you made that jointing jig. I really like all you videos and your channel is very informative. Keep posting the great content. Thanks
I have a question to ask. As a beginner level woodworker, in a family of expert woodworkers, I am often frustrated at the smallest projects I do. Any tips on getting more comfortable in the shop/ dealing with the frustration of something not coming out the way you want it?
Good morning Bob! Do you have plans or link to the plans for the edge jig you used? I am brand new to wood working and don’t have a jointer yet, that would be an awesome addition to my shop until I can add bigger, better tools. Thank you in advance!
I see a lot of people using spray lacquer because it dries fast. I like lacquer but I hate the fumes. lacquer thinner is volatile. it evaporates so fast its explosive. Shellac if thinned properly dries just as fast and the thinner is alcohol. Alcohol is a lot less explosive. the other advantage to shellac is shellac re-wets the previous application so when you are done you have a single layer not multiple layers. you need a compressor and a small spray gun. but if you already have a compressor all you need is a detail spray gun. Harbor Freight sells a pretty good HVLP detail gun for like $16
Hi Bob, i'm a freshman and i'm also a woodworker. Im making serving trays for my school to sell food and snacks for baseball and football games. I was wondering if you think your design would be strong enough to hold soda, food, or snacks?
Brilliant project may try this could do with something like this at my allotment plot but I only have hand tools not all those machines, please can you do more pallet projects - simple ones and useful Thanks for the video Always like pallet project
I've used serving trays (with flat sides, unlike this one) to make arcade sticks, the form factor makes them the easiest box you could get if you don't have the tools to make one from scratch.
Can you show how to make one, but with legs under it? So you can place it over your lap in bed and it stands there. I love serving trays : That way the significant other or the kids can serve or surprise you in bed :D
please i woud like to see you doing something you never done before... it will be agreat chalenge if you can combine between wood , 3d printing and electronic on the same stuff..... think about it
great vid, I thought I'd try I'd myself. I got some pallets. but then I realised I didn't have a band saw, a table saw, a planer, any clamps, a table drill or an electric sander
Could not older pallet wood still be pressuretreated with bad chemicals instead of the newer safer heat treatment? Sure you laquer it here, so probably not a biggy. Just wondered if it would be foodsafe with food straight on such wood.
Could this be used to hold/carry some flower pots? I feel like it'd need a stronger connection for something a little heavier. What would be good to do in that case?
+Craig Rettew Yeah, it's pretty handy! I did make it, based on another design I saw somewhere. Might have been Jay Bates or Steve Ramseys, I don't really remember. I've got a link to the hold down clamps in the description, they're very cheap so it's a cheap and simple jig to make.
This guy I can tell could teach me a lot. Unfortunateley right now I dont have resources or even tools for that matter. I was thinking to make this but it would cost me more money to go buy the bits then it would to just go buy an already made one, but good video teaching people how to be creative. Talented channel idea :)
Great video as usual! We have the same planer but I noticed you had a lot of chips spitting back at you. Was that just the lighting or is the chip ejector clogged?
+Usman Qamar You could build this project with about $100 in basic tools (hand plane, jig saw, hand saw, sand paper). His tools shown (table saw, band saw, miter saw, drill press, planer, belt sander) probably amount to about $3000 new. I felt the same way before I got started a year ago, thinking, "I'll never be able to get anything done unless I have all of these tools to start with." I finally decided to just get started and bought a used table saw. Over the past year I have collected all of the tools I need (from birthday presents, Christmas, or finding them used online), but I would have never imagined that they would have amassed so quickly! So don't feel discouraged, start somewhere!
what can you do to hide the pin heads. I know it's rustic looking but the little holes for the nails on the outer edges would really bug me - especially since you'd spent a bit of time to plane and tidy up the sides and masking off the paint to make it look nice.
I'm working on a huge serving tray to give as a christmas present to my parents, it's about 1 meter long and the handles are just more curvy than the ones on the video. the only problem is that the only tools i have are a drill, a sander and a jigsaw so the thing took 6 hours already and i'm not even done
i liked the way you make stuffs, so easily. I am interested in these but the problem is i donot have all the mechanical instruments you use. Can you help me there
Do you have the plans for the sled that you used at the beginning? I do not have a joiner and I have some reclaimed wood that I have been wanting to work with.
I'm making a tabletop out of pallets but the plan is for the table to be in hinges from the wall on one side and ropes on the other side to create a lot of space when folded up but I want a solid surface underneath the pallets to glue and nail them onto but I'm not sure what wood to use, if anyone could help I'd really appreciate it, much thanks
Hi bob its really good what you do mate👍 i was wondering if you would be able to do a tutorial on makin a cutting table for my really small sewing room/bedroom as i really need some where to cut my fabric
I really like what you've done with the inside coloured faces but are you not bothered about the nail holes on the outside? Or is that just all part of the rustic look?
can confirm that spray lacquer is very good on wood with a nice grain. used it on some oak that I had stuck together and turned on the lathe to make a shaft for a lamp. Looks shiny and smooth to the touch
Bob, your videos are always such a pleasure to watch. Nice job. Great editing man. :) How is the arcade machine going? BTW, I love the new end card. Nice detail.
+RetroWeld Thanks Douglas! I always appreciate the encouragement :) Arcade is going well, but it's a big project so it'll take a while to even get the first video for it finished. It's definitely moving along though (and taking up most of my shop) Thanks! My designer (who made my logo) is working on some new video assets for me, and that new end card is the first one.. I really like it!
Nice job Bob! The wood looks so amazing at 4:00 it's sort of insane hahaha I'm totally doing this for craft fairs next summer. Keep the content coming, I'm hooked!
+Rivertown Woodcraft Awesome! Go for it! When I've made them in the past, to sell, I've batched them which saves some time. For example, glue up 4 or 5 panels at once.. cut them all to size at once, cut the sides at once, etc. That just cuts down on setup/switching time. Good luck!

I love the blue paint on the inside. It really makes the wood visible and yet it is very soft on the eyes.
Simple but extremely pleasing to the eyes!
Nice short and easy build Bob . Thanks for sharing.
I love your shop and want every tool you own.
I might make one but use screws and then cover the holes with dowel to hid them :) Very good video :)
0:36 did you almost die from this flying piece of wood or...?
+Dan Kapla Nope, that's why I always stand to the side of a cut.
Holy crap haha lol
Oh holy shit
OMG!!!!!!

Bob, what is the width and length of the bottom panel.
What did you study to know to do that?
Hey Bob why are youbuild not a minecraft chest

I really dig the color pop, Bob. Great project for folks with limited tools/budgets.
I love it. seems simple to make. I'll keep this one quite, surprise her with it later this spring. thx.
cheers
Nice looking tray Bob. I stocked up on too much pallet wood this summer, so I appreciate the ideas/inspiration. I really like the combination of painted and bare surfaces. Good work.
+Ben Brandt Thanks Ben! Yeah, adding a pop of bold color really changes pallet projects quite a bit in my opinion. It actually helps them attract an entirely new type of buyer as well, if you're selling them.
Should be mentioned to look for the ippc code when choosing which pallets to use. Anything stamped (HT,KD or DH) is safe, anything with a MB (methyl-bromide) is not. If the pallet is not stamped it should not be used. It wasn't until 2003 in the US that it became standard practice to not use arsenic in pressure treatment of even residential grade lumber. Not a guarantee that it could be unsafe, but with sanding and cutting you would definitely want to take some extra precautions. No troll, just adding some constructive info. Still a great build and one of my favorite channels. -Chris
I wish he would have mentioned something in passing at least. Not hard to find good pallets just got to watch. Wonder what his thoughts are on this?
+effreek It's definitely something you need to be aware of when working with pallets, but it's also one of those things that I can't mention every time I use them in a video. There has been quite a bit of discussion around it on TH-cam, so I didn't feel the need to rehash it. Generally though, I only grab them if they're marked HT (heat treated)
Same here! I think there is too much fear mongering in the pallet usage world where misinformation abounds. . . Thanks for all the great projects! This one made me learn something new again. Keep them coming!
Why are you not My dad xD
quick and cool ! ciao!
Pretty cool, you could also use your X-carve to make the side panels with handle holes. This would give a possibility of intricate top curve shapes. And take away the need to chisel a straight line.
Great video, to me it was worth it for the bend-ruler tip, that was great and I needed that for my next project.

I've used that jointing jig for similar projects. Comes in quite handy.

Could not older pallet wood still be pressuretreated with bad chemicals instead of the newer safer heat treatment? Sure you laquer it here, so probably not a biggy. Just wondered if it would be foodsafe with food straight on such wood.

+Usman Qamar You could build this project with about $100 in basic tools (hand plane, jig saw, hand saw, sand paper). His tools shown (table saw, band saw, miter saw, drill press, planer, belt sander) probably amount to about $3000 new. I felt the same way before I got started a year ago, thinking, "I'll never be able to get anything done unless I have all of these tools to start with." I finally decided to just get started and bought a used table saw. Over the past year I have collected all of the tools I need (from birthday presents, Christmas, or finding them used online), but I would have never imagined that they would have amassed so quickly! So don't feel discouraged, start somewhere!
can you tray to make a suitcase that is a table when you folt it open? and i LOVE your videos im so much in to crafting.
wow last month you have 124K subs and now half a million nice keep up the good work :)
Cool like fonzie homeslice!!
well done!! thank you
can't wait to make one!!
will send pics!!
great idea for Christmas Presents. Thank you for the inspiration.
Man I like your works!
Keep it awesome!
what can you do to hide the pin heads. I know it's rustic looking but the little holes for the nails on the outer edges would really bug me - especially since you'd spent a bit of time to plane and tidy up the sides and masking off the paint to make it look nice.
I'm working on a huge serving tray to give as a christmas present to my parents, it's about 1 meter long and the handles are just more curvy than the ones on the video. the only problem is that the only tools i have are a drill, a sander and a jigsaw so the thing took 6 hours already and i'm not even done
i liked the way you make stuffs, so easily. I am interested in these but the problem is i donot have all the mechanical instruments you use. Can you help me there
Do you have the plans for the sled that you used at the beginning? I do not have a joiner and I have some reclaimed wood that I have been wanting to work with.
two thumbs up!👍👍
Is spray lacquer food safe?also I noticed you used spray paint not brush on paint in the beginning.
Another great vid - thanks for posting. Might have a crack at making some of those trays myself.
hey Bob i think you and the rest of the TH-cam woodworkers should have a competition then get viewers to vote. that would be awesome to watch
I'm making a tabletop out of pallets but the plan is for the table to be in hinges from the wall on one side and ropes on the other side to create a lot of space when folded up but I want a solid surface underneath the pallets to glue and nail them onto but I'm not sure what wood to use, if anyone could help I'd really appreciate it, much thanks
Hi bob its really good what you do mate👍 i was wondering if you would be able to do a tutorial on makin a cutting table for my really small sewing room/bedroom as i really need some where to cut my fabric
I really like what you've done with the inside coloured faces but are you not bothered about the nail holes on the outside? Or is that just all part of the rustic look?
can confirm that spray lacquer is very good on wood with a nice grain. used it on some oak that I had stuck together and turned on the lathe to make a shaft for a lamp. Looks shiny and smooth to the touch
nice little project with holidays coming up. real costsaver ;)
good work l love these things
can you make decoration for bedroom girls bedroom like drawer or cloths hangar or any ideas but take small spaces
Bob, your videos are always such a pleasure to watch. Nice job. Great editing man. :) How is the arcade machine going?
BTW, I love the new end card. Nice detail.
+RetroWeld Thanks Douglas! I always appreciate the encouragement :) Arcade is going well, but it's a big project so it'll take a while to even get the first video for it finished. It's definitely moving along though (and taking up most of my shop)
Thanks! My designer (who made my logo) is working on some new video assets for me, and that new end card is the first one.. I really like it!
Nice job Bob! The wood looks so amazing at 4:00 it's sort of insane hahaha I'm totally doing this for craft fairs next summer. Keep the content coming, I'm hooked!
+Rivertown Woodcraft Awesome! Go for it! When I've made them in the past, to sell, I've batched them which saves some time. For example, glue up 4 or 5 panels at once.. cut them all to size at once, cut the sides at once, etc. That just cuts down on setup/switching time. Good luck!
+I Like To Make Stuff Totally, I need to get that sort of thing down before I start making stuff to sell. Thanks man!
