You gotta love Pallet wood for being so readily available and being easily turned into worderful things like those chairs... well done! I've got about 200 planks to plane down and with money being tight that wonderful planer thicknesser is just a bit too out of the budget, so i went and...

My boss suggested the same thing to me about an hour ago... reckon i'll be on the lookout for a good power planer now, thanks for the advice, that's brilliant. I've saved 202 pallets in all from being burnt, the wood is excellent and even though i've given myself RSI by sanding them they do...

Hey guys, I've got literally a shed load of pallet wood planks to sand up in my ongoing project of building my Pallet shed in the garden. I've sanded most of my walls and have now started sanding the internal cladding, with loads to do still i'm finding it very slow going with the current...

it's what i thought, but didn't want to pay money for belts that might slip or just be plain useless.. many thanks

Hi there, Probably a really obvious answer here, i've got a belt sander that takes 76mm X 457mm belts, but looking around, especially on eBay the 75mm X 457mm belts are cheaper and also available in bigger multibuy options - is there any harm in using the slightly smaller width belts? Thanks

Its more the cost as well... woodburners and flue kits are pretty darn expensive, its weighing up the long term benefits of fitting a wood burner vs the cost of a calor gas heater and running costs... especially as this is only a weekend retreat for me, the lads and a few brews. trouble is I...

Hey all.... been a while as its been a busy summer but thought for anyone interested i'd post a couple of updated pics on the progress of the Pallet build. Done a lot since the last postings of course, clad the whole things on the outside, fitted the roof and covering, installed windows, door...

Oh blimey... they'd better not want them back after the effort i've put in, I never knew that :(

Cheers guys, its taken a relatively short time to erect to this stage too, 1 day to collect all the pallets, 1 day to lay the floor and 2 days to erect the walls and get the joists on... last weekend was the most frustrating day because although we worked on the structure all day there wasn't...

right... managed to sneak off from the wife for 1/2 hour to get the pics together... hopefully they upload ok. Last pic was taken last weekend before the door was fitted, next step is the window frames in this weekend which I managed to get off my neighbour who just so happened to...

I'll try and get some pics up over the weekend, i've got lots of them but my firewall at work won't let me upload pics, so i'll have to do it from home. For the floor I first laid paving slabs in strategic load bearing points across the base area, this created a nice underfloor ventilation...

Hey all, New here today but have a quesiton for you. I'm currently building a recycled music room, a place for me and my friends to sit and play music without disturbing the family. Its 20ftx10ft and so far the whole build has cost me a bunch of nails and screws and a bit of wood from...
