What have you repurposed while building ?

I made a post hole digger cradle after drilling new holes for the improved run. Scored three (3) dog kennel panels to add to and improve the run.
Mounting and un-attaching the post-holer is a real PITA.

Uprights are an oak pallet that was used for a machine delivery to a local business. It was broken in the middle of one side. Cross ties and stretchers were brick pallet tie down members, also oak. Tie down straps aren't really needed but I like a little extra security.
Now I can attach the unit quickly and easily and not hurt myself.

NICE! That's gotta make life a bit easier!

We got free roofing material pallets, pvc sheets, rubber roofing, 2x4's, and windows (I may be forgetting something. We only paid for screws... This coop you can walk into, it's 8 feet long, 8 feet wide, and it's 9 feet high in the front.

We still need to treat the wood.
