I built my daughters garden fence with pallets..but some of them are hard to disassemble...they seem to be rivetted together....I suppose we have the sparkly drive made from powdered beer bottles mixed with concrete and the beer bottle wall to look forward to next.... :D John

all me garden fence an gates is ex palletts.didnt cost anything and will last a lot longer than ****e b+q panels.... :D :D

its not all made from pallets, I have a concrete base and the 7foot double width brick wall, so all I have had to do was de-slat the pallets and cut the frame work to the size I wanted, then make A frames up for the roof and cover them, and then make some very sturdy chav proof gates, which will be started today, also felt the roof and finish the slating on the side of the shed, then its treat the wood, felt the sides and then feather edge board the lot of it, to make it look perdy, half hours work I reckon....lol, security will be foking tight as I will be having me bike and bits in it

if you look on youtube, theres a series of clips from a bunch of nutters who built a full size wall of death, 25 foot high and 30 foot across, all from pallets and shuttering ply, then rode round it on mopeds(and fell off in it too!!) must have been a quiet day on the building site :D :D eh!!!

well i got another result today, got given 4 12 ft fence panels with 4inch feather boards on them, 6 ft high, now stripped the boards off and i have 98 of them :D , well enough to do the shed and the wood from the panels is good enough to do the door frame with, so i am looking at completing and moving in this weekend......will make a bloody good workshop...so the cost so far


30 pallets.....free
nails and screws.......free
1 roll of felt.....£7
another roll off felt....free ( given it)
heavy duty hinges and lock.....free from work :rolleyes:

other odds and sods.....£18


total cost for a 12 by 8 foot shed, big enough and strong enough to have a workshop and safely keep the bike in


£25 :D



time taken so far........3 days and 1 more to finish ( that includes stripping the pallets, de nailing them and then making the whole sha-bang)

so i am pretty fuckin happy with that
