My Best Pallet breaker NO welding

[@danynormandeau4112]

That looks amazing brother. This beats all previous. I love the no welding aspect and how you made it strong and did the curb.

[@RoomiesGarage]

Thanks for the support you just made my day

[@col.davidcrockett5959]

I just learned a trick from your video that is so easy yet brilliant. The tape trick for cutting with a hand grinder cutting wheel since ai don’t have a good metal miter saw will help a lot. Thanks!

[@RoomiesGarage]

Glad it helped! You made my day!

[@dirtyaznstyle4156]

I admire your handiwork it’s nice to see someone use a hand file as much as I do. The best part was when you pulled out the tap! The thing is, how many pallets do you disassemble? I use a 4ft 4x6 and a 2ft 6x6 to prop up the runners and a dumbbell to pop the slats or vice versa. 10-15lbs pulls a board with 3” nails easy. Then just flip the boards tap the nails out, flip again and it’s quick work with a hammer or pry bar. Dumbbells are like multipurpose, I use em for anvils, a palm sledge hammer, extra hands etc!

[@RoomiesGarage]

Yes there is so many ways to skin a cat, I made a few tools to take pallet apart, that I either gave or repurposed for the hardware. I like your way also, what is the percentage of broken boards?

[@dirtyaznstyle4156]

@@RoomiesGarage I guess it depends on the state of the wood but thinner stuff is more flexible too. I try to go as close to the nails as possible but maybe 20% if it’s thinner wood. Most of the stuff I do is constructed of 2x4 or 2x6 lumber sometimes with the upc still stapled on the ends. There’s usually a few screws but once those are out it all comes apart with zero broken boards. I keep all the nails and sawzall the splintered parts off and I have 3’-8’ pieces of lumber. Some of the cross pieces have like 25 3” 10D nails, great for an overgrown backyard lol

[@bradcoddington1679]

Fork lift or electric pallet jack are my go to tools for pallet breaking 🤪

[@RoomiesGarage]

Yes, that would work

[@jthadcast]

$2600 tool or $26 ... so hard to choose, which one will look better sitting next to my ferrari?

[@bobcat8439]

I worked for pallet services 20 years ago we were doing primitive pallet fixing that's a good idea

[@RoomiesGarage]

My dad uses pallet for firewood, he has a massive magnet to clean his wood stove. So he takes a shill saw to them...

[@JOEZEP54]

Nice build! .👍 #97 Stay Safe, Joe Z

[@RoomiesGarage]

Thanks, glad you dropped by and commented!

[@DoingItCheap]

New sub here ! Your work is outstanding ! I mean NO disrespect, just a suggestion...... do you think it would still work using 1.25 or 1.50 inch wide material for the pieces that push up on the wood? From our camera angle it looked like the center piece causes a divot in the wood.

[@RoomiesGarage]

A C channel instead of the 2 side pieces pushing on the wood. I appreciate your constructive comment. I want to make a pallet breaker with a car jack so I can use child labor hahaha but it still at the planning stage . Have a great day.

Nice job there mate & good Father & Son time.

[@RoomiesGarage]

Thanks 👍

[@bipolarmotorjeffpenney2153]

Excellent!!

[@boblindakroon231]

How can I get one of you pallet breaker? I love it!

[@RoomiesGarage]

I am not sure how to answer your question as I only make videos to inspire others. Maybe one day I will make a few pallet breaking tool to give away!

[@shermanhofacker4428]

Pivoting arms could be higher and the top end of the short arm rounded over to give better support over the width of board.

[@RoomiesGarage]

Awesome idea, will incorporate that into my next pallet braking tool! happy new year!

[@bobcat8439]

Our motto was bash break nail

[@snocrushr]

Good Job 👍

[@RoomiesGarage]

I appreciate the comment buddy!

[@Cindy-cs5js]

Awesome video!

[@RoomiesGarage]

Thank you!

[@lancerudy9934]

Very nice! How much do they coast? Will you make me one?

[@RoomiesGarage]

I appreciate the vote of confidence for building you a pallet breaking tool but I was just playing around and not planning to make that model anymore, if you seen my other video I made one pallet breaker with roller bearing that is still being used and much better

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

Nice!

[@RoomiesGarage]

Rob, this tool works awesome and solid.

[@truth5346]

Do you sale this product ? How much would it cost?

[@RoomiesGarage]

I only build stuff for pleasure and sometime make a videos, thank you for inquiring about the tool. Maybe one day I may revisit the idea.

[@col.davidcrockett5959]

This is for those who have no welding skills. Welding is a skill anyone can learn and you don’t have to spend a fortune on a welder. You could make a better pallet tool in half the time by welding it together.

[@RoomiesGarage]

I appreciate the comment, I have made basically the same tool with my welder and it took me almost half the time like you said and also less chunky.

[@kensmapleleafretirement]

Nice one. I subscribed. Hope it helps.... Thanks for sharing your design...

[@RoomiesGarage]

I appreciate the support! 👍

[@DANStickerman]

Fantastique !!!!!!

[@RoomiesGarage]

Bien merci!

[@lancerudy9934]

An you make me one? Very nice!

[@RoomiesGarage]

Sorry, no

[@leonlowenstadter9223]

@@RoomiesGarage Perhaps for 500$? 😉🙂

[@ryleeramos3780]

I would like to purchase one, is it possible?

[@RoomiesGarage]

I have not made the pallet breakers to sell but for inspiration for others to create a tool possibly better than this one. I was thinking about making one tool and give it away to celebrate the 2000 subs milestone. Cheers!

[@ryleeramos3780]

Thank you anyway, I just wished that I was as crafty/talented as you and your son!! I never had the chance to work with mine.. keep up your work guys it’s awesome work!!!

[@ClovisBarclay]

That's the best

[@RoomiesGarage]

Thanks, I love the name you have King Kong!

[@bobharold86]

A reciprocal saw is the fastest way to take apart a pallet.

[@RoomiesGarage]

I agree it dose a fast job and less braking of boards. But my 8 year old son takes them apart with my tool no problem but not comfortable with him running a reciprocation saw without direct supervision....so than child labor is out of the question... LOL

[@gregclarke9211]

Good morning

[@RoomiesGarage]

Good morning as well!

[@ProbablyUnacceptable]

with all the metal, tools required, and time... wouldn't it just be faster and cheaper to order one ?

[@RoomiesGarage]

I do admit it takes quite a bit of time ,tools and materials to make what I did. It was a challenge not to use a welder. For me it was cheeper to make my tool because I had it all on hand. You can get the EZ bar pro if you want to purchase a good tool to break down pallets.

[@g.l.3092]

Mr2old4fun Oh yeah...ordering one would have made quite the video; not to mention such a rewarding father/son project!!!!! Most parents in this world default to showing their kids how to purchase other peoples' innovations...usually because they unfortunately haven't the means and/or skills to show them otherwise. So when a parent has both, I for one, love seeing their kids WANT TO GIVE THEIR PARENT THE OPPORTUNITY to TEACH THEM HOW to NOT NEED to simply 'order' things.

[@RoomiesGarage]

@@g.l.3092 I enjoyed reading your post 😊

How much would u sell me 1 for

I appreciate the vote of confidence but I like make stuff and videos to inspire others and to leave something for my kids to watch when I am gone
