Guys we are missing an opportunity here with pallets, houses, yes house?

Eternal walls - pallets fill them with cellotex, outside wall zinc sheeting, plaster boards the internals, for the roof corrugated sheeting, voids for plumbing and electrics in each pallet. standard size windows (pallet sized) floors, doors and furniture "pallets".

Kevin McCloud film the building, George Clarke film the design and the Phil & Kirsty to flog'em on Location, Location, Location, what do you think? Jumped ship to reliability - Mitsubishi L200

D3 - 2.7 S x2 (both Sold)
Freelander 2 HSE - Sold
Freelander 1 - Sold

Personally, Muddybigdog, I would have kept that quiet. I think you may be on to a winner.

Saying that, I believe this is the general building technique for modern wood framed buildings, except the wood they use would be rejected for pallets!

Somebody please help me. Ikea, I can handle. Using pallets as furniture??

I worked with a German lady once. She moved back to Hanover and was desperate to take a large cable drum home with her to use as a table. As electricians, we couldn't see the fascination as we had been using cable drums and scaffold boards to sit on in the portakabins for years (company too tight to buy seats and tables unless it was a really big job site).


I know of a forum member with same style of patio table Mr. Green

They work quite well as they have the hole in the middle for a parasol !!

Do we get any prizes for guessing the forum member?

I'll offer a genuine prize if someone can identify some 'issues' with the log store. You have to be accurate though.

The Ifor Williams canopy is on back to front and appears to be too short. 1995 300 Tdi Epsom Green - It's a keeper.
