JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 All very nice projects and you are on a roll. Hard woods do take stains and top coats better than plywood but your look on that project actually fits it well. I detect a horse theme. Many many patterns out there with this theme. Thanks for showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toothpick Posted December 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 Here’s some stuff I did today with pallet planks. I sanded them down. I think it is Pine. I read that most pallets are Southern Yellow Pine or Oak. Doesn’t look like Oak to me. Tough as nails to cut too. I think I’ll do a lot more with these since I have a bunch of pallets handy. Only thing is I’m size restricted. I like it better with the crooked BE. It’s creative! Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toothpick Posted January 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Here’s some stuff I did today. Gotta say, Poplar wood sucks. Doesn’t take the Danish oil well at all. Just gobbles it all up and turns in to a brown turd. I’m going to re-do the wolf and bird in Oak. So it matches the Indian, which looks a lot better IMO. The Indian and Wolf I did a couple weeks ago, the bird is new today. The “Love Wine” is from pallet planks that I pried loose and sanded. Not sure what wood they are but it’s tough as all get out. Typically pallets are made from Southern Yellow Pine or Oak. Might have one of each here. I’ve got plenty of pallet plants to use too. They are good for words it seems. Some are heat treated so would be good for anything really. Indoor/outdoor.The “Man Cave” is 1/8 plywood of some type, can’t remember. But it sucks too. Cuts like butter though, but flakes easy, very delicate. Won’t be getting that anymore. Somehow I gotta glue or pin or secure those two pieces together - Man & Cave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
