How To Deconstruct A Pallet The Easy Way:
Commonly, people use a crowbar to pry apart and deconstruct a pallet. We tried this method, but found the results less than satisfying. The wood splinters easily and breaks, and this method is very hard on your back.
We recently found a much easier, faster way.
Watch and see how we deconstruct a pallet:
Materials needed to deconstruct a pallet:
- safety goggles
- ear plugs
- gloves
- pallet (in good shape)
- reciprocal saw
- thin metal saw blade
- a helper
Step one:
Always put on your protective gear (safety glasses, ear plugs, work gloves) before beginning of work.
Step two:
Take your reciprocal saw with your metal blade and begin cutting the nails between the layers of wood. Do this until all the nails are cut and all of your pieces are separated.
Step three:
Start dreaming what you are going to be building with them.
