We need a video of how to spot the difference of soft and hard wood pallets.

Indeed, pallet wood is cheap on money but expensive on time

You should invest in a metal detector to check for nails in wood if you do a lot of reclaimed wood. Simple $50 metal detector will save you on saw blades, jointer blades, planner blades. Worth the purchase

Reality. Pallet wood is usually made of the worst damaged wood. A good portion are twisted like a propeller. Chipped, and other with awkward grain in some areas. Dented wirh gravel, who nows what and rhe forks with the fork lift. Nails are usually nocked in to hard with a nail gun or nails so bad they can't be used again, or ones that rust easily. To mention some nails leave nasty rust bleed holes in climates that get regular rain intervals. At that. It doesn't stop me from making various projects with pallet wood. Be aware that a good portion might be added to a burn or discard pile.

Been there done that bit, was a job site and they super fresh pallets, bud, but was blessed with a 2004 Honda pilot. Filled the three seater three trips over 3 t and made a mobel ski bar in North Pole Alaska. Good times hardly ever post but good choose of wood

Buy a truck and trailer. I’ve got stacks of pallets from my job. Only took about 3 trips.

Hey could you do a set up video for your moblie printing cart. I have a small business and would love to do this for some advertising.

You should invest in the Air lock de nailer gun!! It's totally worth it, cut my time from an hour or two down to about 10-15 minutes!!

Where i get all my pallets, they are usually all pine and fresh at that, still with the fresh sap on the boards, I saw jaw them down into foot long planks, either palm sand with 60 or hand plane them smooth (no room for table planer) and make old vintage looking toolboxes.

How did you determine what wood it is?
I’m inspired

[saltyppancakes]

What's the big blue bar you use for disassembling the pallets? I want one!

[MelaLabelle]

Is that not a Lowes in the background?

[thehadster]

How do you handle the arsenic that the wood is pressure treated with?

[MrExpertKid]

How do you know if a pallet is made of hard wood?

[tinydogstinyhome]

What is that blue tool you use to take the pallets apart?

[jamesbemrose]

I prefer to use the wood unplaned and just lightly sanded, but I build rustic furniture.
To each his own!
