Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Upcycle that unwanted wood! The New Pallet Book updates a unique woodworking guide with over 25 new ways to take a stack of pallets and put them to use.

Join home improvement author Chris Peterson for a complete guide to deconstructing and repurposing pallets. This edition, with tons of new content and more than 50 projects and ideas, features everything from dead-simple builds like pathway pavers and a mug holder to more challenging projects such as a recycling bin holder and bathroom magazine box. It's safe to say there's something for everyoneβ€”and every pallet.

Some projects, like the raised bed, showcase the pallet. For others, like the fireplace surround, you'd be hard-pressed to guess the wood was free.

New projects include:

  • Central AC Unit Screen
  • Window Shutters
  • Bike Rack
  • Potting Bench
  • Strawberry Box
  • Toss Across Game
  • Wall-Mounted Sneaker Rack
  • Towel Rack Ladder
  • Crafts Centre
  • Beer Cooler
  • Tool Carrier
  • Firewood Holder
  • Bathtub Tray
  • And Much More!

There's no shortage of inspiration to put free wood to work and keep pallets out of landfills. Simple step-by-step instructions, along with parts lists and images of the completed projects, ensure you will build it right the first time.

Peterson also provides must-have pallet knowledge, including the basic tools for breakdown, finish options, and essential information on pallet safety. It's a one-stop pallet workshop!
