Aware this is an old video, but anyone have any advice on whether using plastic pallets would be a better option to ensure lasting? Obviously trim and top would still be wood, but would they screw in okay to plastic pallets?
@TheWillToMake2 ай бұрын
@@caz2401 I definitely feel like it would be a better option. No chance of them rotting away overtime. And I also feel like depending on the type of plastic it should be fine to screw into, I would just be careful not to strip them out.

I don't think they're cyber bullying just by suggesting you try to do 2 extra things - 1 level the darn thing, and 2 do something to stop ground contact that will make it rot very quickly. Save yourself the effort; do it right once.

We have since moved so I'm not sure. But it was intended to be more of a temporary thing to last a year or 2 until wood prices came back down, since this was when wood prices were outrageous.

Fun project. A friend wants me to help her build a temporary pallet, so this is helpful for advancing my thinking. I’ll probably do something to protect the pallets better as commented on by several others. The one change I’m going to make is to run the deck board at a 45 degree angle so I can omit the underlayment and still have all the pallets tied together. Will provide better drainage which will hopefully help it last a little longer. I’ll just run the deck boards a little long and then trim the perimeter edges with a circular saw. Maybe do a picture frame border around the perimeter as well. We will probably use pressure-treated lumber for the deck boards instead of cedar fence boards which is more expensive obviously, but will allow reuse of the PT boards for future projects (she lives on a farm and always has need for PT lumber for various projects). Thanks for posting.

This is exactly what I was looking for. My own comments for improving. Mine's going to be 2-3' wide. More of a walkway or maybe even a bench. 1) Weed barrier. Maybe bricks/stones foundation (but can add $). 2) Some sort of treatment/paint on the pallets. Treat/paint all sides of the deck boards, too. 3) Don't do the laminate. Screwing the pallets directly to each other would probably be a lot more stable and allow drainage. 4) Maybe lay the decking boards (I'm going to just use more pallet boards) diagonally (maybe even make a pattern!). 5) Adjust the deck board lengths so you don't have tiny little pieces like the square at the corner. So, basically, what I'm saying is that your idea was sound, and execution was obviously serviceable. Seeing how you did it, I am going to improve upon your design. Good luck on your DIY journey, my brother!

You should've put the pallets in opposite directions for more support & screwed them all together instead of relying on the plywood. Should've sanded all the wood too, before applying paint. Also should've applied Thompsons Water Seal before applying paint too.

Hey, why didn't you give one big shade sail, but two? secondly, why didn't you provide metal pins, e.g. 1 meter long, that can be driven or concreted into the ground? If something happens to the beam, you just replace it and not destroy the foundation...

Thanks for this video, I just made a very small 4 x 6 deck with wide fencing from this video inspiration. Added blocks and weed blocker on bottom to lift off ground. I took some of the suggestions, but this was very affordable. If it lasts for a year I will redo larger with better wood, but still use the pallets.
