    Default Pallets for structure?


    I plan on making some pallet stake beds and buckets here soon, already have the buckets just wondering where you guys who build your own find pallets most readily and for the cheapest?

    Construction job sites, I see a lot laying beside the roads here. Warehouse also have them piled up somewhere. I just stop and ask and most will give them to you. I like the one that are old and busted. good luck
    All men are created equal, some work harder in the preseason.

    I get mine free as some business just put them in dumpsters and glad to give them away . Helps to pass along extra Crappie fillets and some will help you locate free materials like buckets , scrap boards ,old concrete blocks , pallets , and had some even bring me old boxes of nails they did not need . I give away lots of fish to old folks and some who don't fish . I always tell folks about fishing and how we build fishing structure . Suprizing how many will contact you about free building stuff they run across.

    I just built 30 stake buckets out of Cedar scrap , concrete , rocks , and 5 gallon buckets cut in half . I cut buckets into and put lids on top have to save buckets . Plan on making another 20 if I have enough concrete.

    Yes, it was over your direction. I don't know exactly where I was, but saw the pile and took the picture.
