I have a project to do using wooden pallets.
Anyone know where I can get several?
Thanks

How many do you need? What condition do you need them? How soon do you need them?

I'll take one of those spools if they're still available.

How many? Not exactly sure. Need to cover approximately 20 SF with the slats. I need enough to pick & choose which slats to use.

Condition? Slats themselves need to be in decent shape. Prefer all oak with various coloration from light to dark, new to weathered. Character is not a bad thing.

When? Just whenever. I’d like to go ahead & start collecting them so I can get started, but I have no deadline.

Joel / Ronnie – this may or may not be a Pinterest project, but it sounds like you two speak from experience!

Pallet projects, no. But I am not ashamed to say I was browsing pintrest this morning for truck / gun mount ideas. It's not all vagisil and feminine wash on there.

True have had to deal with a few of projects for the other half. Have also found plenty of good stuff for the home office we are setting up. She thinks it's for both us but it's not :twisted: Found plenty of ideas for the little guy's tree house I'm building him this summer if I can get the dang homeowner's architectural review group to sign off on it.

Good luck with that! Guy in my last hood had almost finished a very NICE playhouse for his Grandchildren without ARC approval.............yep, the Board made him remove the structure.

Stacy I have broken pallets that we throw away every day in Ridgeland. Also can get you a good many of non broken ones. I have crates that come in from overseas that have the wooden corners that work great for small projects.

The covenants are in place for a reason and yes they do suck sometimes. One yard has a 12' tall pirate ship treehouse easily visible above the fence. I should be ok.
