making a work bench for my shed outathe pallets i got this weekend

Work bench
 

Sounds great, you nposting a pic when it's done ?

Club Pallet
 

Knew there was something else. The wood pieces around the mirror are slats from pallets. Who needs Building Providers anyway lol.

That's a great job. Well done there. (Nice photo of your elbow... more power to it!)

They are wonderful! You are a pallet wizard!

Fabulous! I am gobsmacked that it came from mostly recycled stuff. Great!

started the workbench today and made four more flower boxes with the off cuts left over, will put up a photo when the bench is finished.

hoping to see more photos of other jumbletowners creations here soon.

Rabbits
 

Hiya, don't forget, if you are gonna give it a bash, (and do, by all means), rabbits burrow, so you gota consider that when building runs etc for them :).

You have got to be single !!

Hi Garrazzaband

Why do we scrub pallets with bleach and water before making furniture....I will, of course, do this but curious at to the reason:)
Tks

I do this to clean the wood. It gets rids of any staining and unwanted marks and you generally end up with nicer cleaner looking wood to work with. Also I would argue that it sanitises the wood and kills any unwanted nasties that you might not see with the naked eye. You just never know what some of those pallets have been exposed to and you are bringing it into your home.!!

Obviously if the wood is to be used outside this preparation is probably not needed.

Ps make sure you dry it in a very flat position perhaps turning occasionally to avoid warping!

Good luck with it.

Brilliant thanks - thought the critters might have something to to with it:) I will let you know how I get on....looking forward to exploring the creative side!

One word....Fantastic!

I am seriously impressed with your skills. I think you would have to travel a real distance to be challenged in that!
