New storage bins going up today!

[Pallet Pete]

After being dead dog sick for the last couple of days I got sick of being sick and ignored reality an inserted my own that said I was fine :lol:
I started a last ditch effort before the snow flies to get more wood storage set up each bin holds 1.5 full cords probably 1 cord is more accurate.
We have had a really mild crappy winter this year so far it has only snowed a couple of times none has stuck around to speak of. The good news its getting colder real feel of 4F Monday WOOOOT!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERY BODY ( YES I AM CAPS YELLING THAT ) %-P

Happy New Years Pete. Where the hell do you find those pallets?

 

[Pallet Pete]

I get them from my work we have to pay to get rid of em so I the resident wood burner and pallet builder takes them for free. They make amazing kindling as well !

Happy new year!
Pete

Pete, what if you took one pallet and used it for another side wall? So you would only have one side open, and used the 2x4s over the top to hold the sides in. I was just thinking sitting here looking at your pics. Happy New year

You will like this I made this shed over the summer and plan on three more this coming summer fespo. It is really strong as well even empty with 60 mph winds it didnt budge an inch which for pallets is amazing!

Happy New Year
Pete

 

[SolarAndWood]

If I had access to your structural non insulated pallets, my entire pipeline would be under a roof.

 

[Pallet Pete]

You can if you ever come my way I will give all the pallets you want ;-) as long as I dont run out anyway! What is your pipeline anyway ?

Pete

Thanks Frank !

 

[SolarAndWood]

What is your pipeline anyway ?

Sittin at about 25 cord now, about 3 years for me. Slacked this year and sold a little. Time to cut some wood.

 

[Pallet Pete]

Very nice SolarAndWind man that would have to be a really big roof though. That would be a fun job to make something that size out of pallets you gould get into the guiness records books lol.

Nice work Pete. Hope you feel better. And can get those bins completed. Best of luck to ya. I saw that shed in your original post. Like it. And am thinking of something similar thanks to you. I want to be able to handle my wood less, and be able to pick it up with a tractor and forks to move. Some type of bin like you are building should work. Just have to figure out what will work best for me. I managed to catch a cold from someone over vacation. Felt like crap the last 4 days. But over the counter stuff has been helping me sleep very well and work at a slow pace during the day. I have been getting some free pallets from a local UPS store, they usually have a good supply out in the back and told me to take them anytime I want. I have taken two truck loads so far, about 16 pallets so far. Keep up the good work, hopefully the weather will cooperate for you.

I hope you get better! I thought I had a common cold but it turned out it was much worse there is a form of insinisitus going around and it is wicked. I have been on antibiotic, pain reliever, nasal spray and cold and sinus pills all of which are prescribed for the last 3 days and I am just able to do things today. All this after a week of getting worse to the point I went home on Wednesday and wanted to just sleep and couldn't due to drainage and dehydration. If your blowing buggers like crazy you may want to be sure you havnt got what I did its really nasty. I honestly believe God made pallets for people to build wood sheds :lol: ! They are amazing invention that every wood burner shouldn't be without unless you are - scratch that every wood burner shouldn't be without. Post some pics when you finish I would love to see as many others would how your sheds look when your done.

Happy New Year
Pete

For sure those pallets Pete has are great! I may try to bum a few from him maybe next summer.


Pete, I kept looking for you yesterday and thought you'd bring that saw over. I couldn't cut yet because my body just says NO! But a neighbor came over to cut and I did go back and shoot the breeze with him for a while. Also looked around a bit and finally found that chainsaw tool that I somehow lost. But it was really such a nice day I came close to trying to cut anyway. However, the back gets a few more days rest.

 

[Pallet Pete]

I hope your back gets better Dennis! I was gonna try to come over but I had this nag in the back of my brain saying do the bins do the bins make them now or you will regret it. The little bugger wouldn't get out of my head so I appeased him I mean my conciens :lol: I would like to try out the saw still but I am not sure when that will be now I am sorry I forgot to tell you that was jerkish of me. Hopefully you can forgive me this time :-/ those are puppy eyes by the way lol. I will get out there this winter and give you a hand that much I know if there is one thing I can't resist it's a big tree and a saw my father saw to that.

Happy new years Dennis
Pete

Buy the way if you want pallets say the word they make amazing kindling for starting fires I put a pile of small pieces on a super cedar and within 30 minutes I was of for the races from a cold start. I love the pallets :kiss: !
