So I always wanted a smart tv for in my living room. So one day i decided to go out and buy one. but when i got it home it would not fit on the stand i already had it was too short by a mere 10 inches.
So i figured I just bought this thickness planner off a local buy and sell page.
And a jointer from the same buy and sell page.
I should use up some pallets that have been laying around a while.
I didn’t remember to take very many pictures of the process
but here is a picture that shows both before planer and after 
And this picture shows the stand before staining
and here is the completed stand after stain
in all it took one day to plane, measure, cut, glue, screw, and wood fill the entire project. I sanded and stained the same night and brought it into the house the following afternoon as i really needed it to sit under the tv i wanted to watch it after all.
Thanks for checking it out it was a fun build and i would do it again anytime.

Looks good. That is my style of reusing pallet boards.

My wife has been dropping subtle hints about pallet wood projects. We have a pallet company about two miles from the house. People pick it up for firewood! Need to get down there with the truck. My complements on the great project. I have a planer and a router that I could use for joining.

it sure doesn’t hurt to have a magnet in the tool box

Great job! I like the contrast of the pulls to the rest of the stand.
Have your say...
