This coffee table made out of heat treated hard wood pallet boards may be my favorite piece to date. It was made for a brand be coffee shop that just opened in downtown Phoenix in a new and up and coming spot called the Roosevelt Strip! They loved it. The coffee shop was the brain child of Oliver Bryan who suffered a truamatic brain injury (see what I did there). He hired his mother to run the kitchen and his father to be the General manager. When I unveiled this piece not only were their gasps but mom had tears in her eyes. I was also able to build 16 tables for them as well as install pallet boards on 55’ of counter for them as well really creating a very warm and inviting presence!

Great way to repurpose and you did a beautiful job on it. No doubt a conversation piece.

Great looking table, and very nice save of the pallet wood! And it’s always nice to get positive feedback from the clients, huh?!
