    I have picked up pallets in that alley before. I am pretty impressed at what you’ve built, although I am not sure what exactly you are planning to build? If you do chickens, they have to be protected from above also, and now you’ve got a lot of square footage to enclose. You can set some T-posts for support, or chain link post, maybe even rebar.

    Simona, I don’t think it would be a bad idea to rent a paint sprayer for the pallets

    Hello hi, maybe if you spray paint them it’ll be quicker. But so far I love everything you’re doing. Keep up the good work.

      Tysm!!🩷🙂 I definitely thought about that but then I got to thinking about how hot it gets here in Arizona and I just think the thicker paint will protect the wood a lot better.

    Arizona does have termites, right. Your pallets doesn't appear to be pressure treated lumber and will eventually be destroyed by subterranean termites. You may want to reconsider this method of fence materials. APTTMH
