Well I decided I was going to build myself a rustic cooler out of cedar and once it was done I decided to build another out of pallet wood. I enjoy building things and these things are fun to build and easy to customize. Id like to thank dlrz71 for some tips he gave me especially on the plumbing portion. All in all I think they turned out well and the darker one was sold to a buddy and he is going to give it to his dad for his dads birthday. My wife gets the credit for the photos.

Mine on the left my buddies on the right(I like his more haha)


Went ahead and put a bottle cap opener and bottle cap catch on his

Really like these

She owns small photography business. She has learned everything she knows on her own or from photographers she knows. She is very talented and is actually doing her first wedding this weekend and another next weekend.

I bet that if you insulated the inside walls, you'd have yourself a rustic Yeti. I love them. Only thing I can poke is the cap catcher. Not removable means hard to empty. Drop a stainless cap catcher inside the wood box or maybe an old oil can.

Damn nice. Good work ethic, when you are off, you are still working a bit. Can't get lazy.

Also built this step for a friend. I built the frame then wrapped it in old fencing which is what he wanted he also wanted two of these pavers to sit inside (He broke one of the pavers but I put it in to see what it will look like). I think it turned out well and I had my helper there with me.
