Pallets

I love free stuff, most of you know this already.  A pile of FREE pallets by Golden Rule Lumber called my name & I loaded my pickup truck to the roof.  My husband LOVES when I bring junk home! (not)


Pintrest has a great deal of pallet art ideas.  Check out my board for all the best ones.  This rack is going to my craft booth. . .



Made from a "mini" pallet!

Now, here is what NO one tells you about pallets:   They have the most stubborn nails I have EVER tried to pull out.  A crow bar & hammer worked, but it took some aggressive finesse.  I broke MANY boards. The dismantling takes time, so don't be in a hurry for this project or it'll turn out in shambles. It's a good thing I had a few pallets to work with.

  2. Basic pallets are constructed of heat-treated wood products and formed in a box shape. Each pallet has specially measured openings to fit allow transport by forklift, pallet jack, front loaders or other devices for ease. Often a load is secured on a pallet with the use of strapping, stretch or shrink wrap for shipments. Los Angeles Pallets
