View Full Version : Wooden pallets
Does anybody local to me have access to these? And can deliver?
Or does anybody have s van we can get loads in and I'd pay a drink and the petrol?

How many do you need, and what condition do they need to be in?
Wooden pallets- Talk to me!
Love you chaps. As many as you can muster, going to recycle them into a shed :)
Using the planks as cladding and the rest as bits here and there.

Your gonna want some of the better ones available then, the ring/pallet nails they use don't come out and are fired at all angles so won't lever away.. Recip saw is a winner here..
It'll be hard work ripping it all free and collecting lengths of wood but will save a all fortune.. My shed cost me 1500-1800 and that's with trade on my timber.. I wrapped it in breathable roofing felt at the cost of about £90, but it's totally water tight and no damp either..
I love a good shed
Was going to build a 3x2 frame maybe 4x2,
Pitched roof using the same. Then sheet board the walls, then some form of breathable water barrier then the cladding (pallets).
Or a total pallet shed (google it) looks cool

John I have new rolls of roofing felt that are cheaper than from suppliers as we get 20odd rolls at a time covers 50m squared if you don't need too much I'm sure I have end of rolls lying around
Trev I'm going better end ;)
Gary, brilliant I've planned a 12x10 shed with over hang, scraps are cool :)
Going to try use as much recycled bits as possible.

By the way that's breathable roofing felt to go round the walls to keep you dry you will need at least one roll Iwould have thought. I have flat roof felt but iits expensive gear so your best bet is to get shed felt from b&q or the likes as its cheap, no way near as good but cheap.
I'm just thinking of structure and seen lots of examples of pallet sheds.
Some havea main post in each corner and others its just connected pallets.
I guess a basic frame then build walls from pallets, the sheet it all. Roof wise beams with gusset/cross support. I'm onto a winner here... Just need an old man chair, log burner, and red wine/ my brewing equipment

That looks like a bus stop. You can sit at those and escape for free Jon.
