I get the leverage part.. Thats why I questioned the length.. Is yours about 3-4 feet?? I want to make one but not too long or too short.

How archaic, Mr. Makita circular saw works for me, then we just use them for kindling to start fires.
I saw one pile of cut up ones about 15 ft tall on my many cub trips. That was all the person used was pallets to heat his home.

We used to use those to demo decks, after 500 demos we did,I lost count.

You nailed it! lol.. When I saw it I thought to myself this would be good for pulling up my old deck boards.. Have a big project coming up rebuilding the deck.

What he said. ^^^

One of my bro's made some patio furniture from old pallets. My thought: I would burn them and buy some furniture.

Now days we screw deck boards on.
