    Fit for an ancient Byzantine emperor, made out of mossy pallet wood by a dude in a motocross jersey. The world is full of incredible people. Amazing job man.

    I see alot of "palette" projects, desks, benches, etc. Usually just a bunch of palette boards glued together and finished. All the intricate detail here hides the fact that it's made from palettes. Had one not known ahead of time, I wouldn't even had figured it was palettes. If this were a contest entry, I bet it would win... awesome build. Magical indeed... something Gandalf would use :)

    This gentleman is why Public Schools should bring back “Wood Shop” into their curriculum! Bravo that was amazing! Popping out of the closet at the end was funny. IDK why but It reminded me of Dr Who’s TARDIS. 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

      Completely agree. Besides not all students are cut out of the same cloth. Woodshop was one of my favorite classes and it brought a lot of joy to my dreary academics day.
      I still have a shelf that I made in 7th grade. I gave it to my mom as a gift over 40 years ago. At 80 years old she is culling out some things to reduce her load and gave it back to me.
      I never got a chance to do metal shop or auto as that was more on the trade side of campus and had a label on it as being for "losers". The shops classes tended to be pushed on those that struggled academically and/or had behavioral problems. Too bad, because I think I would have loved that too.
      It's funny, because they just tore down and rebuilt the middle school I went to when I was younger. It is still in middle school and I just realized that there is no wood shop in that new school. As a matter of fact, that's actually the same shop that I made that mahogany shelf!
      I am grateful, however, that they still push a pretty good music curriculum. I'm so grateful that my children can all read and play music! Unfortunately, none of them are interested or have an aptitude for more hands on things like woodshop or turning a wrench....
      I suppose they can sit next to me and play music while I build them a jewelry box or install their starter....

      Jane Doe Yes indeed. That and home economics as well. America has really dropped the ball on that. Now, everything is cheaply made overseas. It was so cool to break up the school day with shop, music, driver’s ed, and art classes. Glad I lived it.

    One detail of the build that I truly appreciate, is your reuse of the nails. A former boss would not want me to save nuts and bolts that I had saved from a disassembly project. He then would go and purchase new fasteners of the same sizes.

    I used to work making roofing slate. Because of the weight of the slate the pallets we used were made of oak and maple. Sometimes the boards were a foot wide. They were beautiful to look at just as they were. If the pallet got too damaged by a fork truck they were thrown away. I often tried to think of ways to reuse them but my wood working skills are pretty rudimentary, nothing like this guy. Imagine what he could do with foot wide oak and maple!

    I have always been impressed at how much of an improvement taking the surface off old wood and refinishing it makes, But you took it to a whole new level. You took wood that most people would think was utterly useless and made a masterpiece out of it. This is something truly special.

    You’ve absolutely made my day and you’ve made me think about the fact that things don’t have to be what they seem to be at first glance. Those dingy old pallets, made into this gorgeous piece of artwork... mind blown.
    I’ve seen many beautiful pieces of reclaimed pallet wood furniture before and admired them but what you’ve done here is really beyond compare. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent and the fruits of your labor that you clearly loved creating. Marvelous! 💗
