Introduction: Pipe & Pallet Shelf
Steph has been looking for some shelves in her office to hold supplies. We haven't used pipe or pallet wood before in a project so we thought shelves would be a great way to try both materials and get some cool shelves!
Step 1: Watch the Video
Step 2: Gather Materials
- Pallet (they come in different shapes and sizes- we used a pallet that had wood 5.5" wide)
- Sawzall (to cut pallet)
- (2) 3/4" Plumbing Pipe 6" length
- (2) 3/4" Flange
- (2) 3/4" Cap (we priced out each item separately and found it cheaper to buy them in a set on amazon. Same pipes you would buy from the hardware store but it came all together in one package)
- (16) Screws and anchors
Step 3: Deconstruct the Pallet
We cut the sides off with a sawzall then cut through the middle support, and cut the boards off.
Step 4: Sand and Seal the Board
Step 5: Decide Where You Want the Shelves
Step 6: Attach Pipes
Step 7: Use a Straight Edge and Level to Get Pipes Lined Up
Step 8: Add Pallet Wood and Done
