If any of you have tried it, let me know how you got on. I've a few projects to finish first before I can take this on, but comes next February I plan on building one. Stay tuned, I'll make post as soon as I start on it.

In the meantime I need to finish working on this little project:


Pallet Desks

Since my pallet shed, I've made a few more smaller pallet projects, like new desks for my painting studio and work area :

Since my room was a bit of an awkward shape and had no square angles whatsoever, I could never find furniture that fitted properly, so I made these using pallets and a couple of lengths of reclaimed 3x2 for the frame.

SUP Carrier


A while back I was looking at a way to make a small carrier/trailer for my S.U.P (Stand up paddleboard) and found this page : http://www.standupzone.com/forum/index.php?topic=6939.0

It's a great resource and describes the whole process for building it along with exactly what to get


I had everything handy so I decided to have a go at is and here's what I've come up with. Securing the SUP is done my means of two straps, once securing the SUP to the trailer at the top or middle of the board, the other attached to around the bottom and fins to act as an handle.
