PALLETS ARE ALWAYS OFFERED FOR FREE AROUND HERE...THERE'S 100'S OF THEM. BUT THEY ARE PUT TOGETHER VERY WELL AND WOULD OFFER A STRUGGLE TO GET THEM APART!!

Thanks for all the great comments.You don't realize how well they are put together until you take 200+ pallets apart.I ended up with 4 1/2 lbs. of nails and staples when I got done.

Out here they recycle/repair all the pallets. Most use screw nails & white oak so they will not fall apart. Have to use a sawzall to cut apart.

Looks great...I love the big signs and his eliminates the need for making sure you hit a stud(s) when your hanging one of those 75lb+ signs
