what you need
- 2 EUR pallets
- 4 metal legs
- safety tools (gloves and goggles)
- power tools (jigsaw, sander, screw dirver)
- stain & rag (why wipe stain than to brush it? )
Firstly you need only the half of the first pallet. Then need 4 narrow slats for the top. For this work use a jig saw than hand saw to make sawing easier.
IMPORTANT 
Measure carefully the place between fix slats because it could be different by each sides. With correct measuring you could avoid any fit problem.
Use some planks from the second pallets. For this table we needed 5 full sized slats and a narrow one.
You could unjoint the pallet easily with a help of reciprocating saw. But more than enough also an iron saw for the rusty nails - only saw them and the slat will get off.
I think, you're also probably thinking: “Ohhh no, I hate sanding...”.
So yes, sanding wood can get boring... BUT the final result compensate for that!
For sanding work we used 80 grit paper (The higher the number, the finer the grade. Lower-numbered grades denote coarser sandpaper.)
The most amusing part of woodworking is staining! YES! I love it. 
I tryed this technique first time. It's more efficient to wipe stain than to brush it. And you're less likely to have color problems. There isn't any stripy surface!
Almost the last step to fix all detached slats to the top and the bottom wit nails and screws.
We used screws fixing the bottom planks - the connection is even stronger! 
We changed the usual casters to metal legs. It gives a classy look for the coffee table!
