DO NOT try breaking a pallet with an oscillating multi-tool. Epic fail!

An oscillating multi-tool is NOT the right tool to break apart a pallet. Please watch this before you consider buying a multi-tool inorder to break pallets, or any wood that contains nails. Epic fail and my multitool is going back for a refund.

A reciprocating saw with a demolition blade in it (metal and wood) can be a good way of getting euro pallets apart. They’re certainly a much more heavy duty pallet! The wider boards are great though

Thanks I will try reciprocating saw next time

Reciprocating saw is the best thing to use on EPAL pallets I use mine with no problems I have the Einhell cordless one with a muti-material blade piece of cake. Just make a small gap for the blade and its quick and easy. Swap the multi tool for one instead
