Handmade Pallet Board Puller



My wife keeps telling me that there are hundreds of projects she wants to make with pallets.  I guess Pinterest  is loaded with ideas.  Since I will probably be the one taking pallets apart for these projects I thought I would make my job easier.  I built this to help pop the boards off more easily. She can use it too. You can buy a similar tool for about $65.00 but I made my own with black iron pipe and scrap metal I had.  A bright coat of paint so I don't lose it among all my other tools and we are set.  Now we need to find a new good source for free pallets.  The store that used to give them to us for free has gone out of business.  Previous pallets I have obtained I used to stack fire wood on or I used for firewood.

Bolens-Shaw Combo Homemade Tractor


I took parts of a Shaw tractor and parts of a Bolens tractor to make this one.
