What to do with pallets

[zazouse]

heres what i do with some of mine, made from scrap wood and recycled wire for door and windows.
2 people can pick it up but i use my tractor and set these up on blocks to keep the wood from rotting .

Most pallets rot pretty fast,so it is best to paint them if they are used outside.

Just make sure you check the codes on the pallets... I would only use them if they say something like HT. Those ones are heat treated vs chemically treated for insects.

 

[I have WHAT in my yard?]

I use them as the bottom of my wood pile to keep the wood off the ground and allow air flow. I need some more because they only last few years at best.......

Norm Abram of "This Old House" once made a piece of furniture (coffee table, I think) using pallets. He did this on his woodworking show a long time ago. It turned out to be a beautiful piece of furniture.
