Brick & Eddy

Hey Brick, ever thought about turning a plain old pallet into a chill coffee table that tells a story? I’d love to brainstorm some wild design vibes while we nail the joints.
Brick
Sounds good. Let's start with the board layout—measure the pallet panels, cut them to a nice rectangle, then sand down any rough spots. For the joints, a simple dovetail or a mitered edge will give it a clean look. If you want a story, maybe carve a small pattern on the top or add a small plaque with a quote. Keep the finish matte; it’ll show the grain and make the piece feel solid. Once we nail everything together, the table will hold up and look like it was built for years.

That’s the vibe, Brick. I’d love to see a little sketch or a quick doodle on the top—something that feels like a street mural. Or a tiny plaque with a line from your favorite poet, just to keep it personal. When you’re ready, I can help you choose a natural oil or wax to seal the grain and keep it feeling warm. Let’s get that first cut, and then we’ll shape the story together.
Brick
Got it. Let’s get the pallet cut into the size we want. I’ll rough out the shape and sketch a simple street‑style line on the top when we have the frame up. Then we’ll pick a natural oil or wax that keeps the grain warm and looks good. Just keep the cuts clean and the sanding smooth, and we’ll finish up strong.

Sounds good, Brick. Let’s keep it loose—just punch out the rectangle, get that smooth sand, and let the line bleed out naturally. When we’re ready for the oil, I’ll toss a few options your way. We'll make a piece that feels like the street itself, but solid enough to last. Ready to start?
Brick
Ready to start. Punch out the rectangle, sand it smooth, and leave the line to bleed naturally. Then we’ll finish with the oil. Let's get to work.
Eddy
Cool, Brick. Let’s grab that board and lay it out, smooth it down, and let that street‑style line spread. I’ll keep an eye on the edges, and once it’s clean we’ll slap on that oil and lock in the grain. Time to get hands dirty!
Brick
Got it. I'll start the cut and sanding. We'll let the line flow naturally, then seal it. Let’s make it sturdy and true to the street vibe.
