Great video. Ignore the haters, no expensive tools were used and it was very simple for beginners.
Finally a video that doesn't require expensive tools, which i don't have. I want to make a simple box for my cat and almost gave up. Thank you.
I agree with comments that this wooden chest was poorly made however I do like the simple design I plant to make one similar for a wood box ( a box that I store wood to burn) thank you for taking the time to make this video and sharing it with us.
This is how most blokes build stuff, badly! Very realistic video 😂
So funny, don’t forget to drill all your screws in at random angles, while also making sure to split the wood as much as possible!! 😂😂 as an added design feature, make sure you don’t counter-sink any of your screws, to maximise things snagging on the screw-heads, good job!!😂
i guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid lost my account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me.
@Ray Ibrahim thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and im trying it out now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Ray Ibrahim It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass !
@Payton Nova No problem :)
@@paytonnova1603 Intentionally or unintentionally great job . How to beat a narcissist 101 🖐🏼 people like you change the world for the better.
FINALLY! this is the BEST "trunk from pallets" vid out there, no, I don't have 40 tools that cost over a grand a piece. THANK YOU for using REAL tools, real people and real pallet wood, very nicely done. I don't use metric sizes, but that doesn't matter, I need a different size than what this vid puts out anyways, came here because I can't find that perfect size box... now I can make one, the principles are laid out very well here and I look forward to giving it a go! thanks again, GOD BLESS.
Thanks very much for your comment Kathryn! Please do let us know how you get on, we'd love to see the finished product :)
This is a great beginner project -- just to see what it's like working with pallet wood before you do anything too serious or tedious. It's made with *free* pallet wood, after all. This stuff doesn't last forever, despite what the nagging commenters would have you believe. Getting a feel for pallet wood with such an easy project is the perfect way to start. Great job, great video.
Thank you very much for your comment ! :)
I think its a great video. Thanks for sharing
You're welcome :-)
using pilot holes (drilling a hole slightly smaller than the width of the screw) saves a lot of effort, accurate placement of the screws, splitting the wood -see 3.22 and trashing the screw head when the bit skips out 3.01. also said a lot of drills have clutch or torque control, this means that you can control the depth of the screw so that you don't sink the screw so deep that it comes out of the other piece of wood you are screwing in to.
Thanks for your advice! Hope you enjoyed the video :)
I made a crate out of a couple old pallets in my back garden over night with hand tools only. No drill. Proper bodge but it's at least sturdy and quite heavy duty. Get shouted at most times the lid shuts because of how thick it is
great instructions. building one myself now.
while i am all for upcycling i think the builder could have tried to make this box so it would last. screws should have been through the slats into the batton not batton into the slats. the end result even though was rustic looked like rubbish. i would not use it for anything except fuel for the fire place. just another example of what not to do.
I thought it was just me, lol!
I agree, the design is well built if it was built better.
If you were going for the “hack job” look then you nailed it. That thing belongs in a fire pit. Splitting the wood, using the wrong screws, no pilot holes. Good video on what not to do.
Gente ficou lindo parabéns 👋👋👋
Lots of complainers here. I'm sure these people harvest the trees and blacksmith their own nails while hand cutting dovetail joints in a severe thunderstorm. This is a great starter project for beginners to dip their toes into woodworking. Drill some pilot holes wherever you plan to put a screw to avoid splitting. I'm sure people who make this are proud of it.
Can't wait to make it!!!!!!!!!!
Great easy project!! Thank you!
Nice instructional video. But why do work on the floor? No table available?
That would look awesome in a bonfire.
Lol
Cool & Awesome & Cheeper than cost of Chests these days
Thanks for guide
Cool Projekt! It turned out really nice! I love using this material too! Keep up the good work! 👍👍👍
Yeah drilling towards his hand made me nervous. But good job! I can see why you wear thems mwaukee gloves
Can u list all thing used and how many pieces of everything needs
The list is right at the start the videos. Are you making it? We'd love you to show us your storage chest when you do make it! Send us in a photo!
Cool!
Thanks, glad you liked our video! Did you try making this trunk for yourself?
Nice,
Haii from Malaysia
What would be the best drill to use? How many volts?
A 12 volt drill is fine for DIY projects and work around the home. There are many videos on this - my 12 volt Dewalt will drive upwards of 100 3 inch screws into pine screws on one charge. Size and weight difference of the 12 v as opposed the the 20 v is substantial.
where can I get the wooden battens? They're not part of the pallets
Is it just me or did the dude making the box look like he was a really difficult time? Like it was kind of awkward.
No, not just you, the poor sap doesn’t know what he’s doing, where did they find him? 😂
no way, he's all rugged. he's hot plaid on. those split pieces of wood while drill is proof.
He looked massively hung over 😂
Super easy design. Nicely done.
Thanks Ross, we appreciate the feedback! Are you making a storage trunk yourself? We'd love to see the finished product!
I certainly will be. I'll send a pic to your website when completed!
Great, we can't wait to see how it turns out! :D
i look at this video and i start thinking i would do it way better and differently cause this trunk will be very weak after it is assembled and wont stand up to much abuse at all. so i see this video as how i would improve it to make it strong and still look the same. thanks for the upload.
When he lifted the lid it was was wobbling around like f**k 😂
wl make soon
Hey Baisakhi, so glad to hear it! We'd love to know how you get on :)

Those who are so hateful, at least you got the gist of the matter. Stop being nasty.
Would a hammer and nails hold if no drill? building noob here.
Hi Shaun, thanks for your question. We'd really recommend using a drill with specially-adpated wood screws since they give a stronger hold than nails. It's a lot faster too! But since this chest will be on the floor and won't have to support a great weight like a wall shelf, for example, you could probably get away with a hammer and some nails. If in doubt, ask for advice at your local DIY store. Hope that helps. If you make our chest then we definitely want to see! Send us in a picture and we'll share your story.

Shaun Zanker yes. Nails work just fine, if you want it to be even more secure you can use all purpose Elmers glue also.
Should use wood glue
What no work bench.??? and no glue..... Maybe make yourself a work bench from other pallets so your working at a comfortable height .... Glue and screw will make your project a lot stronger
You are gonna scratch the hell out of the floor with all those screws sticking out.
very errm... O_O... rustic.. >_>

vaya chapuza!!!
The f**kin state of it 😂
Dismantling a pallet .step 1 sawzall
Done. Amazing the amount of Master carpenters in the comment section. Aka know it alls . Looking for their videos to go along with their comments and can’t seem to find any .
should've just had the tree grow into the shape of the box... good thing this was just an example and not the actual way to build a box
but will it hold anything without falling apart- judging by how those screws were put in it would make a nice decorative piece
Dude. You do know that you put those screws in from the wrong side right? Wow...
I was using stodoys instructions to make it and I did it already :)
So badly done not even a strait screw splitting wood this is just lazy
This is a joke? This is how not to make a wooden chest.
This is so bad.
ghostdog662 how
@@deeoneill9806 predrilled holes before screwing in, nope. Clamp pieces together before screwing together to remove any unevenness, nope. Plane the boards to the same thickness, nope.
A fresh apprentice carpenter could do a better job 🤣🤣🤣
Wow looks soo bad guy can’t even screw strait
so much battery energy for the camera recording it wasted.... don't mention our time watching it
my 5yr old could have made one much better
Damn - even I can do better than that!
My husband uses these plans from Woodglut and is very happy with them. However. I love yours!
As bad as it looks, its probably 10x faster to build than anything good.
You working is so awkward to watch
That's so bad. I can't tell if it's serious or not!!
Find a house brick, throw it at a pile of pallet wood around 200 times, and you should get something that looks like this chest!!!
Holy crap! This video is terrible 😱
Is this video a joke 😂
Is this a joke?
Good idea, poor execution.
My 3 year old with his fake tool set can do better. Who came up with this.
Typical engineer student mistake because did not planed before execute...Not always theory is correct.....
