Wow, a bench from pallets....it's pretty cool, actually, but I know my neighbors. If they saw that in my garden they would offer me a saw to even up the back, or come do it themselves to be helpful~ :-D

Yeah, I do think I'd like it better even, but I'd want it a bit curved, I think, instead of straight across~ :-D

That looks really good and quite unique with back all different lengths, hope you succeed you will have to post some photos when it`s done.

I think if it was even you might start noticing that the wood was all different widths, so they've made a virtue out of necessity. But it's your bench, make it unique in your own way.

If they are all different lengths you could use it as a xylophone. Could take a while getting it in tune though.

I've on glanced at the picture so there maybe more information.

It is not all from pallets. It looks like the main legs are 4x4s.
You can get these for a reasonable price from a fencing manufactures. Yo may even be lucky enough to secure free off cuts or old posts from scrap fences.
