Pallet breaker

[handycrowd]

Hi guys,
Just found this site today and I love it, how on earth had I missed you! As a builder and handyman I make stuff all the time to get out of a jam so here goes.....

A new hen house means pallet wood in this neck of the woods, but how to get the darn things apart (curses for ribbed shank nails lol!). Time to make a pallet breaker.....


However you make yours, make sure the 'tines' sit underneath the planks like this....


I had fun making this because I only have a stick welder and it was soooo nice to finally weld something out of thick metal (instead of blowing holes in thin stuff lol!)

Have fun with those pallets, the greatest free resource there is for us 'makers'!
