Ha ha! :-D

For rivets you can use a 1/2mm hole punch on plasticard to get a bunch of rivets really quickly. Cutting a plasticard rod into rivet sized pieces works, too, but it's hard to get them uniform. Works better for Orky or Necromunda stuff. A small dot of superglue looks pretty good for small rivets.

Well the wood pallets have been done by many but i like that you used only the sticks instead of balsa wood because not anyone has access to art supplies.great sci fi pallet and i always love some nice hazard stripes

I do like the tutorial, as for the gluing step. If you stain/wash the stirrers before gluing them, you don't need to worry about the PVA ;) Also easier to stain them, because you can just use some wood stain and a sponge. You can also get deeper "wood grain" with your steel wire brush when they are still as a complete stick, as you have more leverage to really press the brush into the wood. And you can use your big cutting knife or a kitchen knife to cut grain into it, if you really want it deeper. Its also easier to damage them, like say put them in a bag with rocks and shake it. It will break the fibers and whatnot.

Very Impressive! I work with wood pallets on a daily bases and the ones you have constructed are spot on. Hell they actual look better than the real thing. I am going to have to try this for some of my home games.

Just look at pallets and you make the same. But as a warehouse manager I will say they look awesome

On my first day working at a sawmill I was asked to put some pallets together. I was handed a pneumatic nail gun and some planks and left too it. I didn't know I was meant to build them on this stand thing that held them up off of the ground. So I was part way into building the first pallet when I came to turn it over only to find that I had nailed it to the floor. They had to use a fork lift to pry it up off the ground. Weirdly they never asked me to make pallets again.

Great little video on some great looking scenery - they add so much character and seem so simple to make!

GW doesn’t give a rabbits fart about scale and if you look at their vehicle transport capacity then you would agree. Industrial pallets are sometimes 6’x6’ or larger and are used to transport things weighing 1000 lbs so your scale that you used are perfect for the tabletop and I will be making loads of them thanks to you.

The pallets look so simple & easy to build...but very very effective.. When you speak about buying a bag of coffee stirrers.....I recall asking a girl in my local Gregg's bakery for a handful, she said "gimme a minute", went through the back of the shop to come back to me with an unopened bag of 1,000 stirrers & asked if that would suffice....lol...i've still got them somewhere...😁👍

Using metal for pallets is definitely extra

Actually a full size pallet is about 120 x 120cm, which would be about two bases wide.

@thecultofcrafting

Жыл бұрын

A standard European pallet is 1200x800x144 mm. But even so, using a Primaris Marine as a benchmark, which is around 2.5 m tall in lore and 4 cm in plastic, that would make a 1200x1200 pallet 19.2x19.2 mm in mini version.
