I made this for my niece but she quickly grew out of it so now I’m transforming it into a reading nook. Thanks so much for including the plans!! This was my first wood project ever and I couldn’t have done it without it!
So those palettes come from God knows were and are loaded with chemicals and who knows what. The last thing I’d do is burn them for heat or in any way use them for furniture.

I love the cradle, it is a great piece, but using pallet wood raises a major issue. What was on that pallet during it's life? So many of them carry chemicals of some sort. Also, alot, if not all are subject to chemicals to kill off any insects that may live in the wood, so that it doesn't spread to other countries. One last thing is that most, if not all containers being shipped have a pesticide bomb tossed in just before closing it for the final trip to it's destination. These are all chances for chemicals to penetrate into the wood, and cause it to be a chemical hazard. Especially for an infant. There is no way to clean the wood to remove the chemicals. I've seen so many great items made from pallets, and I am all about recycling / re-purposing, but the use of pallet wood for most anything is a bad idea.
Looks amazing, and I'm sure little one loved it, I have one on the way, in about 5 months, I love making things from pallets. Would live to try this, was thinking of adding some padding on the inside, with some fabric stretched over it.
That's really neat love how it turned out ,would be great to make a smaller version for pet beds ,loved the back drop paper you put up it really made it stand out . Top job Cheers Tim from Wood 4 Nothing
I love your moon cradle. And love the Merrell. Both of them fit together. Be beautiful in little boy or girl's room. Even in a Nursery. Take foam and cut it out. To the shape of the bottom of the Cradle. Then put vinyl upholstery. To cover up the foam. Then put your baby sheet. On the mattress. Baby can stay in the Cradle when it's little. And it should go down from generation to generation. Thank you for sharing your video.
Hello, hoping this comment doesn’t get lost.. looking to make this soon but just curious what did you do for a mattress? That’s the part I’m a bit stuck on. Any insight would be appreciated, thank you!
just love this..... I'm going to break it down to a smaller version done in paper mache and then into a doll bed for my grand daughter... yep... thanks for the awesome idea
hey, nice project, but Isn't pallet wood treated? I would seal that wood with many coats of a water based sealer. Wouldn't want to expose a baby to isocyanates.......just sayin.....
None of dropbox links is working. Could you please upload plans somewhere else and share the links again? I would like to build it for my little baby. Thank you very much!
What kind of blade are you using with the jig saw? I see the jig saw is a Bosch... just wondering if thats a special blade. I have had a hard time using jig saws with pallet wood...
this is absolutely amazing. I'm curios as to know how long this took u to make. I'm intrested in trying to make this and just wanted to know as a intermediate (learning) carpenter if i would have the time. I have 6 Daughters so i dont have a lot of spare time. lol Thank you for such a great video.
GiGi Ingram looking at the changes of clothes I'd say 4 days in total, but I could be completely wrong...... I've just made a frame less version in just over 7 days total. 😎
Beste Jochem, wat een prachtige wieg graag zou ik hem zelf ook willen maken, zou ik à.u.b van u de afmetingen mogen weten? U kunt mij hierover een privé bericht sturen, graag hoor ik van u. Met vriendelijke groet Melissa
Hier staat een pdf bestand met de afmetingen van het wiegje: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2329379/wiegje.pdf De wieg is ongeveer 120 cm hoog en 44cm breed. Er past een matrasje van 40x80cm in. De afmetingen op de pdf heb ik gebruikt om het frame van het wiegje uit te tekenen op een MDF-plaat van 122x244cm.
Will Urban I agree. And honestly this all about entertaining the adults and making them feel good because a baby gives no rips about the shape his/her cradle is. It's basically using your child as a piece of art or conversation pieces.
deion guice It's a ridiculous waste of time. Buy or make a standard bed. And honestly, one of the safest ways for a small infant to sleep is in a basket/box with padding in a blanket sleeper. Conserve your resources, time and money for later.
Hoi Jochem Dijkstra , wil er graag mee aan de slag. Iedereen heeft problemen met het openen van de link. Ik zou alleen graag willen weten hoe je de cirkel meet om uit te zagen. Zodat je een maan krijgt. Vriendelijke groet, Robbert
Robbert van den Broeke, in de handleiding heb ik precies aangegeven hoe groot ik de cirkels heb gemaakt en waar het middelpunt moet komen: www.dropbox.com/s/hkn05ehlg0yynbi/Step_by_step_guide.pdf Je tekent eerst een grote cirkel en haalt daar met een andere cirkel een hap uit.

on the rocks with salt Hard to tell how many hours it took me.. The sanding takes a lot of time (and dust). Once that's done you can do it in a weekend I guess ;)
@@JochemDijkstra awesome thank you a buddy of mine and I just started the project for him and his wife and it’s coming together well! Thanks for sharing!
futerman mega tree farming does very well and responsibly in the northwest and generally for every 1 tree taken down, 2 are planted in its place and the area rests for MANY years and often is never logged again.
My husband used these plans from woodprix and he's very satisfied. However. I love Yours !
I like that Shantay

Jochem Dijkstra how far apart did it make the squares away from each other on the step by step guide sir ?
thank you for this and the pdf guide
is it weird to say, as a father-to-be to a father, that i love you? :)
lol Just a little but u and I both are amazed
Un
one suggestion...instead of all that sanding run board through a planer before cutting then after cut hit edges with belt sander major time saver.
Ooh! Just made my heart go pitti pat! What an amazing thing to do for your baby! Beautiful! Just beautiful!
That's amazing. I just found out I'm gonna be a grandpa. My daughter is gonna love this. You rock 👍🏻👍🏻
My girl and love this. Great job.
Being a maker is just not taking the world as it's given.
I love your creative idea and your work! absolutely fantastic!

They actually have codes on them that show how they were treated so u can tell whether or not it is safe

This is so freakin cool!!! I got to try it when i get a place or when i redo my parents basement! 4:33
I recently had a need for floating shelves, and it looks like this will fit the bill. Thanks 4:42

You have a great touch but the vedio was too fast, I had to first pause to let you breath at same time catching up with the steps
Can this be made with a different wood? What would you suggest if so?
Alguien me puede decir las medidas qu el uso para construir la preciosa luna?
Hello, hoping this comment doesn’t get lost.. looking to make this soon but just curious what did you do for a mattress? That’s the part I’m a bit stuck on. Any insight would be appreciated, thank you!
Ashley Stoothoff I used a standard size Ikea mattress which is 120x60cm in size. Hope that helps 😉
I love your work!! I wish I was that handy myself! Wonderful job!
Hermoso trabajo, gracias por subirlo.
Awww if you still have this I would love to buy it!!!
I cant stop giving this a thumbs up. Well done!
Fuck the moon cradle, the music is epic!

Congratulations, Dude! I make like your in Brazil
Boa noite sou Anderson aqui de Forquilhinha sc como vc faz pra fazer o gabarito da lua vc pode me explica
just love this..... I'm going to break it down to a smaller version done in paper mache and then into a doll bed for my grand daughter... yep... thanks for the awesome idea
Wondering if this is possible for a toddler bed, all of the plans I find are for a little baby and not big enough for a normal size crib mattress
Why not? Just use my plans and change the size
I check a lot of woodworking handbooks. These one from WoodPrix are the best.
Prachtig, love it alot. Ik zal je zeker volgen!
Wow, way to go dad. This looks really great. I might try this myself! I am not as skilled as you though
A wonderful idea, beautifully executed. Just outstanding.
Woodprix is nice for that.
May I know what is the song ,or who sing it
hey, nice project, but Isn't pallet wood treated? I would seal that wood with many coats of a water based sealer. Wouldn't want to expose a baby to isocyanates.......just sayin.....
+Kevin Cozzo not all pallet wood is treated. You can google to find out how you can check this.
I am inspired this is amazing
بسیار بسیار عالی عالی عالی
خسته نباشی مرد.
با آرزوی بهترین ها برای تمامی کسانیکه دوستشان دارید .

Just updates the links, thanks for noticing! www.dropbox.com/s/hkn05ehlg0yynbi/Step_by_step_guide.pdf?dl=0
you sir have inspired. Running to the garage to build this right now.
Amazing, I'm 3 months pregnant and I already want this crib lol
What kind of blade are you using with the jig saw? I see the jig saw is a Bosch... just wondering if thats a special blade. I have had a hard time using jig saws with pallet wood...
Nothing special, but it helps if you use a new sharp blade ;)

+321hoss The music is: Sarah McLachlan - World On Fire (Junkie XL Mix)
Thanks!
This woman has a beautiful voice sweet and you work it guy 😎
Nice! and wow😉 and am i the first to say that your last name is close to another wood worker 😉

What did you use to make the mattress out of for the baby to lay on?
Just some plywood with some holes in it for ventilation.
think I am going to try this with new wood and torch the wood, then clear coat the whole thing several times... to bad I can't post a pick on here...
Erik Krumm I think that can give a great effect!
How hard do you think th would be to make
Ölcüleri nedir
genial lo voy a hacer
Cradle made with pallet wood is a HUGE no.

Hola podrías compartir las medidas y los materiales usados
How much do you charge to do this?
What kind of white wash varnish did you use?
Elizabeth Nel: it is a varnish for scaffolding wood
Amazing way to recycle.
[Borat boice] “very nice”
is it possible for me to do this concept but I wanted it to paint the side for a basketball. can I do a full circle or is that weird

Hi just wondering what size mattress to buy? Thanks!
Jazmine Delarosa I designed it for a mattress of 80x40cm and 7cm thick
hey, its really wonderfull. how big is the mattress, which would fit in your moon cradle ?
Osman Korkmaz: the mattress I used is 80x40cm and 7cm thick
What is the estimated manpower hours you used? Was this a weekend project or was it a longer period?
on the rocks with salt Hard to tell how many hours it took me.. The sanding takes a lot of time (and dust). Once that's done you can do it in a weekend I guess ;)
thanks for video and pdf files
Why did you decide to cut out the inside of the moon? Less weight..?
Yes, otherwise it would get to heavy and you don’t really need the inside
@@JochemDijkstra awesome thank you a buddy of mine and I just started the project for him and his wife and it’s coming together well! Thanks for sharing!
Qual a medidas do fundo para colocar o coxão
Knap werk. Leuk ook dat je je info deelt! 👍
Hi thanks for the video and the Dropbox link, very helpful. I've got one question! Was you able to get both moon shapes out of 1 sheet of MDF?
Sophie Sparrowhawk Yes, they came out of a sheet from 244x122cm
Yes I've just read the PDF again and did the measurements from center point to radius of the large circle and it comes in at 1175mm lol. Thanks again.
what you sound effect ?
sandpaper cost more than wood pallet, but I like the idea
We need to recycle and protect forests worldwide
futerman mega tree farming does very well and responsibly in the northwest and generally for every 1 tree taken down, 2 are planted in its place and the area rests for MANY years and often is never logged again.
What about the poor animals and birds?
I like it ;)
Fantastisch ontwerp. Wat voor pallets heb je gebruikt? Euro pallets of weggooi pallets.
Weggooi pallets, de planken daarvan zijn net wat dunner wat hier mooier uitkwam.
Waar in Nederlands kan ik gratis palleten vinden?
You are great! Bravo!
this is really cool
Gold in your Hand :P
How much??? $$$
看起來應該是給小孩子用的嬰兒床
這位達人的功力真的是好
不過... 不知道之後有沒有留空間作其他用途, 因為小孩子差不多兩歲就不需要這種東西了
把大小改變一下，躺的高度調整成人可以坐的高度，前面修改一下，就變成有風格的戶外椅子。
