Not the most exciting but
Not the most exciting butHello,
Hope this attachment works, I was driving home on Friday and spotted a huge pallet, I thought about this site and decided to pick it up, I got the owners to OK it first then as soon as I got home I ripped it apart and nailed together a compost area, never thought about using a pallet but I think it looks OK, [center][/center] (edited by Richard to show picture) The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those that got there before you.
Re: Not the most exciting butThat looks nice and tidy, does the compost fall through the gaps, or have you filled them in? Or maybe you have your bins in there, can't quite see.

Re: Not the most exciting butNo, the gaps were due to a lack of wood as I used some of the pallet to put a 2nd floor in the chicken shed, it actually stays inside, and very little falls out, which is a relief,

Re: Not the most exciting butIf you have some offcuts of carpet, you could nail them to the inside to fill the gaps.

Ha ha, I should have claimed that instead The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those that got there before you.
Re: Not the most exciting butWell, I think it looks really smart - you would pay a fortune for that in a shop.

Re: Not the most exciting butThe gaps allow air into the compost which is good. I never had a proplem with the gaps.

Re: Not the most exciting butWell done, what a fantastic compost bin!
It's ripping the pallets apart that would cause me the most anxiety. I will have to sweet-talk my hubby into lending a hand. http://www.freshstartforhens.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
