      I didn`t intend to make use of this woodworking book, t.co/oLg9l5gL3F but rather curious about it. I had been truly amazed right after trying it. It never disappointed me in my wish to acquire more information about the art of wood working. Many topics were covered, including everything from wood types to developing your workshop.?

    I found just over 100 pallets on an industrial estate, locked up in a yard that the owner wanted clearing to rent out for another use. The security guard said I could have all the pallets as long as I removed them ALL within 4 days and left the concrete yard totally empty and clean. OMG! I could only fit 4 paletts in my small truck at a time, so I ended up doing just under 30x4 mile journeys between the unit and my house in 4 days. I did leave the yard spotlessly clean and within a day or so it was full of HUGE recycled purple plastic compost bins stacked about 15ft high!
    I broke down the 106 paletts into planks and chunks. The 'chunks' were packed in 20kg bags and sold as firewood for £4 a bag. I made about 60 garden planters which sold for about £15 each and a picket fence to surround a neighbours front and side garden. About 60ft or so for £100. Managed to raise just over £1000 which was donated to a local community garden project. It was a really enjoyable experience but I never want to see another wooden palett again! 😊

    When I worked on a farm I made a green house for myself out of pallets with a door with hinges. All I needed was some good strong plastic at the time for the outer coating. It was great at the time for my tomatoes and to jump in when the weather got wet while gardening. That was over 35 years ago. Now been older the possibilities are endless as to what to do with pallets.

    A note of caution; If your planning to use used pallets find out what was stored on them first, chemicals, fertilizer, old porta-pottys, etc. Some of that stuff is highly toxic and can not be removed from the wood once absorbed....

    With the cost of lumber going through the roof, it's great to see pallets be put to a second use. We have an elevated floor in part of our garage because when it floods and then freezes, we can't go in it or get anything out of it. With the pallets, we just walk over the flooding or the ice.

      If you went through with this make sure to get something to kill termites in case there are some in the pallet wood.
      Had a buddy do this years ago and we don’t have termite issues here and they came in with a few of the pallets was the conclusion and the shop lasted about 2 years.

    I wish I could post pics on here of my 3 pallet by 2 pallet pool with a patio attached. It's similar to the pond. Granted I covered and stained it with lumber from the lumber yard it saved me a TON of money using them for the frame. Normally I wouldn't have thought to build a pool with them but our yard is long and narrow, and the only pools I could find in the right dimensions were shallow kid pools.

    You forgot to mention that pallets are a good source of fire wood since they are, normally, free and made out of hard wood (most of them anyway). For years I heated my cinder block garage in winter, with this stuff , let alone the barbecues in summer that I made in of my home made grill.
