Pallet Timber
I have about .75 mtr of timber which I have disassembled from pallets for a project which is no longer going ahead.
I was going to use them as cladding for a shed as the timber is particularly suitable for outdoor use. See below.
I am using my wife's account to post this.
They are North American white cedar, which according to this site www.srs.fs.usda.gov... is both termite and rot resistant. "The rot- and termite-resistant wood is used principally for products in contact with water and soil."
Being American, they are in inches so the size is 40 inches long by 3 1/2 inches wide by 1/2 inch thick. That converts to approx 1016 mm (just over 1 metre) x 90 mm x 12.5 mm.
Some of the ends have split around the nail holes, but I think I kept the best ones. Could be ideal for outdoor furniture or planter boxes.
Collection from Browns Bay.
