Celebrate the season with pallet-recycling projects

Winter isn't over yet, and there's still plenty of time to ski, ice skate, and go sledding. If you work in a warehouse or DC, you can indulge in this last activity very economically indeed—according to the folks at Premier Handling Solutions.

An entry in the material handling equipment distributor's blog shows how to make a sled from an old wooden pallet. Captioned photos walk viewers through construction step by step. The small but sturdy sled does work, as the snow-covered gentleman in one of the photos could no doubt attest.

That's not the only seasonal pallet-recycling project on the website, though. Randy Teadt, the blog's clever and prolific author, also demonstrates how to make Christmas tree and Thanksgiving turkey lawn ornaments.
