Any tips on scrounging free pallets would be greatly appreciated by anyone!
I see you have chicken wire, is this expensive?

Hi,
Thank you, It's really worth the effort when you see the results. I was lucky to be given some pallets to start me off by a kind JT'er called Chucken1 who also told me that the Co-Op superstores give them if you ask, but I don't think there is any in your area. you might be able to source some from factories in industrial estates, they might be glad to get rid of some because they might be overrun with them LoL
The chicken wire was bought from Homebase for about €30 but I'd say you might find better in ordinary hardware stores, I find everything seems dear in the big name hardware shops.
I hope to continue making things with pallets now I've caught the pallet bug, I'm going to try my hand at making a garden bench and maybe table.
I wish you the best of luck if you decide to make stuff from them, you should post a thread with some photos :)
All the best
Eddie
