Let's Get Started
To reduce the risk of injury user must read instruction manuals for all tools used in this project. Wear eye and respiratory protection. Use clamps to support work piece whenever practical.
Step 1
Determine the number of boards and length of each board you will need for this project. Here we will show you how to create a rack which can hold 3 bottles of wine and 4 glasses. Remove the boards you will need to construct your crate (refer to cut list on the PDF for the recommended lengths). Average-sized pallets are about 40" wide. We ended up removing 3 boards from a pallet to get all of the material we needed. You will notice that the boards of some pallets are easier to pry off than others. We used our Dremel MM20 tool with an MM482 Wood and Metal Blade to simply cut off the nails from the pallets to remove the boards we needed. Tip: Before plugging in your tool, mount the MM482 blade. Next, plug in your tool, set the speed setting to 10 and begin cutting, letting the speed of the tool do the work.
Step 2
Once you have the boards you need, cut them to size. Measure and mark your cuts, clamp your boards to your workbench and cut using the Dremel SM20 + SM500 wheel. Pallet and crate boards are typically thin (around 1" deep) so you will find it easy to complete a straight cut through these boards quickly using the Saw-Max tool.
