Pallet construction around the farm?

DamnearaFarm · #1 07/20/11, 09:34 PM

I once had a site bookmarked that someone had posted on here. It dealt with various farm buildings, feeders (I think) and such that were built out of pallets. Since the hard drive crashed I've lost the link. I did a search on here but didn't find it. Nor was I able to find it on google.
Anyone know what site I'm talking about?

The above link is dead, but I would also be interested in getting ideas for pallet construction.

I saw where a guy once built a nice bed that swings...held onto the rafters with chains. It was made outta pallets and it was really nice.

So far we've made a chicken house that's roughly 8ft by 4 ft and six foot tall, a goat shed that's roughly 4x4 and today we made horse feed boxes and nest boxes for the new house. Not bad for a level pickup bed load of pallets

I built a shed out of 7 1/2 foot long oak pallents as my framework, had to screw it together as the oak was too HARD for nails, but it is my favorite shed, it is 8x16x 8 ' high, with T1 11 siding and a shingle roof, you can see it in my blog
