      This is a woodworking channel, not a language teaching lesson. Please don't be blunt and appreciate the effort to make it understandable for as many viewers as possible. This man did a better job than most of us would do and deserves compliments instead of corrections. Excuse me for my not perfect English, I am not a native speaker, trying to communicate with you in a language that I do not perfectly read, write or speak, but probably better than you would understand my native language.

    This is a great wood project book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxkPIWb22DigCqxmlXerCyUF4HCl6eSU2L . Most of the projects use the pallet simply as a source of reclaimed wood not as a recognizable pallet so even if you didn't have a pallet you could make these projects with any reclaimed (or even new) wood. The instructions are excellent. The style is charming and would work with lots of different decor. There are quite a number of projects that involve tiling of teh wood pieces which is a really cool idea and can produce beautiful pieces when working with aged wood.

    I have to say Oliver, a man as young as yourself, you show skills matching people with decades at the craft. And as much as I love the sounds of the lathe work, this was just as amazing. The beauty is in it's simplicity. No fancy edges. Letting the woods grain be the star. These longer videos with explanation text is a great touch also. Thank you for sharing another amazing work.

    It's worth leaving on the original French subtitles; however:
    "Comme papa dans maman!"
    What kind of expression is that? 😃
    Other than that, it's beautiful. No epoxy (thank you!) and beautiful patterns.
    What I also like is the subtle (and sometimes outright quirky) humour you use. "Look, I can use a hand saw to make dovetails, but in reality, this is how we do it." Plus the attention to safe work practices, etc. Expressing things without saying them.
    I've been following you for a couple of years now, and it's just a joy every time.

I clicked on the video for the wood, stayed for the way you really transformed it.

    That desk is GORGEOUS and I want it! I especially love how it's mostly put together without fasteners, which adds to its appeal to me. I have no place to put it, but I'd make room somewhere. Now to scrounge up some cash...
    I hope you kept all the scrap and sawdust for this project separate and smoked yourself a real nice brisket with it :)
