  • This is BY FAR the easiest method I have tried, AND the fastest way to take down pallets. Fairly inexpensive considering the amount of free wood involved. Buy YOURS at this amazon store front

    Thanks so much, this is great. I'm setting up my off grid living space and want to reuse and recycle as much as possible. This will make taking the pallets apart a lot easier. Thanks. Love your channel. I'm learning a lot and I need a lot of help! Thanks again.

    This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ruclips.net/user/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

    Try doing both ends and leave the middle until last. That way the whole board doesn't lift up when you do the last end.

    I have used a few different types of these pallet breakers and have found that much the best of them is the one with the swivel end. It always lines up with the underside of the board and so less power is needed to use it and there less breaking of the board as the stress is equal across it.

    Nice. But can ya make a pallet fall apart without tools? Stand pallet up on one corner like a diamond shape then bang on ground then one another back and forth till loosened, then stand pallet up on one end and rock back and forth increasing motion each time till pallet falls apart (may require a slight kick on one end of the slat from time to time. Pull/pry nails as needed. BTW: the reciprocating method - use punch tool on small nail bits still left in slats.

    Moose a simple and easy nail remover is a 8 or 10 inch length of rebar, with a center drilled hole that its about 2 or 3 inches deep you put that over the nail (has to be out of the wood) and you put the rebar with hole on the nail and hit with a hammer, nail comes out on other end or raises enough to be pulled saving the wood for later reuse. questions contact me. dave

    •  6 лет назад

      Concept & execution understood; however, how deep should the hole be drilled, and why not extend your idea to that of a slide hammer to deliver the blow.....
      Removing the nail is often the MOST labour-intensive part of disassembly. Some videos have shown some sort of "bit" one can attach to a drill (air....) which grips the nail and spins it out....??? No hammer-pulling required.....
      Do you know what this tool is....or how to make it?
