Pallet Wood DIY Projects
The price of lumber is crazy right now. Thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic, supply is low and the demand is up. People stuck at home want to renovate but there's not enough lumber to go around. For example, the price of a standard two-by-four has doubled since 2018.
If you still need lumber, check Facebook Marketplace for free wood or heavily discounted lumber. I found someone downsizing and he gave me all the lumber in his wood shed. Check it out here:
