Ultra cheap bed wood
Not sure if I posted this before or if anybody posted from last years Goodguys show. At the time, I was broke and wanted to take my truck to Goodguys. Dino was having his party- all the heavy hitters were going to be there (you know who you are) and I had rotted wood -weak in parts that I did not feel safe walking on. The previous owner had a piece of plywood which was warped and starting to split. I was on Pinterest one night and saw a wall covered in pallet wood- Cool! I had a ton of pallet's at work! Read-FREE !!!
Now to do it again- which I will..I'd take the time to plane it and take a little more time to piece it all together but hey- thought I'd share- took a couple hours- is hardwood, matches the patina of Loretta and I don't have to worry about scratching it. Here is a pic..
