First, we laid out many pallets, pre-sorted the wood, removed the nails from the boards and cut pieces that were no longer usable to size ready for the oven.

As always, a temporary workplace had to be built first.

In order to knock out crooked nails, we use pliers.

When dismantling the pallets, the wood is pre-sorted. We use long crowbars and long squared timbers with good leverage.

The squared timbers are particularly suitable because they offer a larger support when lifting the boards. Nevertheless, some boards break through. But that’s not a bad thing. The wood shows us in this first step which parts are to be used later for the static construction and which are not.
