Very cool setup Dave!! I have a pallet bar I welded up to push and lift at the same time it works great... Ill try to remember to get some pics of it for you...
This was today's project. Its made entirely of pallets, free lumber and free osb. Now I need to paint it and for that i am using professional enamel.
Pallet Pete, though I did not draw the original inspiration from this great thread, I felt it deserved to be here. This is my pallet fence, built it this Spring. All made with hardwood pallets, hand tools, and creativity!! Even the pergola was a piece of pallet/shipping crate that came like that. As soon as I saw it in the pallet pile I knew what I would do with it. There are ZERO posts, no digging was done. I leveled it all by eye (not perfect), it goes down a slight slope. It is remarkably strong for it's simple design, and withstood a tornadic like gust this Spring that took out several surrounding trees and the neighbor's flagpole. BEHOLD! You can also see my crazy tall black locust tree photobombing I the background.
Well, the old light bulb just came on in my head. If I can get enough pallets, I could use the slats to do the ceiling and walls in the shop.
This stuff reaks and is garbage but it looks good! Lol I screwed up big time... thought I had it dry and ready it looked and felt dry but there must have been water somewhere.... It bubbled up all over so now I will sand the bubbles out tomorrow in the sun and recoat. This stuff was hard as heck to use too its thin as water and smells like burnt tires. Ill go back to herculiner next time way better experience.
Well round two I flipped the ramp and did the back side with far more success today. Used a stucco roller instead of that foam junk the kit comes with and it went down far better and much better texture!
Picky pyre promoters prefer Pallet Pete's Palletial pine post & plank prefabs possibly phor purely practical principled purposes.
