    I saw these plastic pallets outside a local supermarket and asked if I could have them. They're waste! Sickening. Anyway, I also saw the potential as a shed floor so I'm collecting them until I have enough. I've never seen anyone else use them, and then, boom. Here you are!

      There's no way they should have been chucking them away unless they were broken.

    I built a log store, floor and sides from composite pallets only last week, secured together with 10mm zip ties then clad and a felted roof put on top, now filled with 2 tons of firewood briquettes. I understand using zip ties seems very odd but correcty placed and tightened they made the pallets into a rock solid base and 'frame'.

    It's called TGV because it's Tongue & Groove with a V cut going down between each plank. You can get tongue and groove which is just TG which doesn't have the V cut and is completely flat. One of the many things I remember from my carpentry apprenticeship years back although we referred to them as T+G and T+GV (TnG and TnGV). We're soon to move into our forever bungalow which has a massive garden out the back and I plan to build a long shed down one side of the garden that's a shed at one end and summer house at the other.

    The plastic pallets are a 'GREAT' idea. I'm sure someone can correct me if I'm wrong. The pallets are usually good for 1 ton, spread across the full surface. Unless you are going to park a truck in the shed, I don't think you will have any problems with floor loading.

  • @MoonbeameSmith

    I would only change a few small things.. I'd add a chalk line next to the stop so you could readily see if it gets moved. I would have dug small holes in the ground where the pallet "legs" are so that the load is spread over the rest of the pallet rather than sit on those "legs" which will sink randomly over time. I would nail and glue Everywhere not just nail.. I'm a belt and suspenders kind of guy. Last I'd paint or stain Everything before and/or during the build.

    I'd say that screws snapping under shear forces means you're probably using a cheaper type of screw. I recommend you not use drywall screws, as they are often brittle and much more vulnerable to the various acids in wood, especially PT wood.
    Deck screws -- which often look almost the same as drywall screws, for many cases -- are not much more expensive, but *much* more able to handle lateral ("Shear") stresses. For key spots, such as, perhaps, the joist framing itself, you might go for the more expensive structural screws. Those offer both considerably greater shear resistance but, even more critically, much more resistance to corrosion. They aren't cheap, but do offer considerable benefits when it comes to reliability and longevity. Structural screws for the joists, then deck screws for the... duh... deck. ;-)

    The downside to clamping them that tight would be that it does not deal with expansion. Not sure how much variation you have in weather where you're doing this, but that is not trivial. The boards might wind up peaking -- pushing/popping upwards where they meet -- if it gets much warmer than when you put them in -- again, not clear from the overall info you provide. This is why, when you put in an outdoor deck, you actually *_want_* at least an eighth of an inch (3mm) of expansion separation for the planks on an exterior deck, otherwise they may press into each other and force them to push up at the interaction. I'll be interested in hearing if there are any issues with high summer heat and the floor popping up. This is one of the primary advantages to using OSB and Plywood -- they tend to be, by the nature of their design, more dimensionally invariant within common temperature ranges. IF you are going to use T-I-G boards for this, the best bet would be to do so on one of the hottest days of the year, or, alternately, don't pull them together so tight, then use clear caulk or something to fill in the space so it doesn't collect crud.

      I'll be posting a video soon which will prove that the decision to pull the boards together as tight as can be is a very sensible one.... And also, I don't use drywall screws

    Just a quick thought: Why not using the pallets upside down? Earth is weaker than wood so the pallets would stay more horizontal, maybe besides it would have a little more ventilation? Looking forward to the next episodes, still very enjoyable.

    It's called tgv because when it's joined it has a v groove on the good face (aka a closed v ). You can also get an open v which creates a look like weatherboard. TGV and Open TGV are normally redwood while weatherboard is usually a whitewood. Floorboards in your house are just TG. (totally closed and whitewood)

      The risk is that you seal in moisture I think it's better to allow the wood to dry out naturally
