    and the best way to salvage pallet woods is by using a dremmel.

    grind the heads of them nails that hold the pallet together, without the head, the woods come apart and whats left of those nails can be bent into an upside down L shaped thing and be pulled out by means of a plier.

    Unless the head of the dremel tool is the size of the nail head or every single nail is sticking up already you will gouge the shit out of your pristine pallet wood at every nail site. Which will require tons of expensive ugly wood filler and ugly up your beautiful pallet furniture.

    I reckon a disk grinder would save ur silly ass about 9 out of 10 hrs of nail head grinding.

    Incorrect, this thread is about how to use the wrong tool for the wrong job and why it is better to use the wrong tool for the wrong jib.

    actually yes.

    there are burrs the size of nail heads and even smaller.

    tungsten carbide burrs to be specific. spin that thing at 25k rpm and a nailhead would be gone in less than a minute.

    if you fancy something better there are diamond encrusted burrs too.

    deploying disk grinders is like child abuse.

    its so big and the hole is so small.

    And now we are back to a massive labor increase for no qualitative return.

    less callories are spent grinding with a dremel than striking a pallet with hammers and sickles.

    Agreed. strikning pallets with hammers and sickles would be stupid. Using a hammer and a flat bar to gently wedge the bar between wood and use simple leverage to pop them apart in under 20 seconds per board however is called working smarter.

    if you consider spending lots of callories on maimed and deformed and possibly cracked woods as smart,

    then i guess thats 'smart'.

    If you can't easily pull apart a pallet with a flat bar and hammer without fucking it up your brain is maimed and deformed.
