You may have noticed that we have a surprisingly large amount of DIY projects featuring shipping pallets on the blog; we can’t help it! What’s more fun than making awesome modern house projects out of FREE WOOD. Of course we’ve neglected a pretty important step in the process of wood shipping pallet projects: how to actually get the wood off the pallets efficiently and in a way that can be reused!
Well no longer will we keep you guessing at this mystery method; we came across a project on how to salvage the wood out of these seemingly never-run-out and free shipping pallets. Spotted on the subtle but noteworthy DIY Cowboy, he’ll provide you with a full list of tools needed (surprisingly comprehensive) and very clear, full instructions on how to get the most out of each shipping pallet. It also seems that with these clear instructions you might actually be kept a fair bit safer from wayward nails and wood fragments that might have started flying if you just starting taking an axe to it! More.

This is such a helpful post. I’ve been not knowing how to obtain palettes for awhile.
