How To Take Apart A Pallet

You know those piles of pallets you see all the time that you wish you knew what to do with?

Where I live they are everywhere! We get a lot of them too at our Dairy and I see pallet projects all over the place.
I've always dreaded taking apart pallets, a crowbar and a hammer just never really seemed to do the trick for me and would take me FOR EVER to take apart.

Well, fear no more I have the easiest way ever to take these bad boys apart!
On a side note am I the only one who wishes I could use Emoji's on my blog?!

Step 1: Find a pallet!  I had already cut up the back for a sign I made that's why there are some random pieces hanging from the back.
 Step 2:  Get a 9" Nail Embedded Wood blade for a Reciprocating Saw.  I got this one for about $3 at our Ace store
Step 3:  Attach it to your Reciprocating Saw

Step 4: Place blade in-between the 2 wood pieces and GO TO TOWN!!!
I seriously can have a pallet taken apart in about 5 minutes. No joke.
You will need a fresh blade every few pallets or so.  And again make sure it is a Nail Embedded Wood Blade, I have found these work the best.
