What's the fun in that!!! Lol
Well, this way when not it use, you can disassemble them for easy storage.
Look at you using logic and reason to defeat me!!! Lol
I've got those brackets and Craftsman sawhorses; I love the Craftsman ones because they click together for storage. Got 4 of 'em in total right now holding my topper off the ground and I want at least 2 more, they're on sale all the time so I can get 1K pound capacity sawhorses for like $50, but I need to get of my ass and build the wood ones. I've got all the lumber and hardware I need, just no time or motivation.
The one thing about pallet wood is that it's usually pretty dry and brittle so it cracks really easy. The nails are usually pretty tough to get out without destroying the wood you want.
Pallets are made out of many different varieties of wood. When I would get the little ones at a previous job, I would look for ones made from poplar (hardwood but light in weight) and red or white oak. These were quarter or half sized pallets that were based for cardboard displays. I use them in my building for things I don't want to stack on the floor.
Should have phrased that better. MOST of the pallets, at least around here are basically junk wood. Lots of spruce and pine, so it dries out and cracks. The ones that come from overseas for machinery etc, those are usually a hardwood, and you can actually get some nice lumber out of them. We used to harvest the 2x's and 4x's out of them and kept them for special projects at one job. All depends on where they are made, one countries junk wood is anothers treasure.
