Paul Mallory Owner-Builder Support Project - Santa Fe, NM
I chose to use repurposed pallets for my soffits after doing a trial and seeing how much I liked the look. The work was painstaking and time consuming: breaking the pallet, cutting the board, sanding, staining, then attaching, and keeping track of different length boards during the course of the project. I did discover a pallet breaker, a tool used to break pallets apart while minimizing damage. I’m not sure I would have done the soffits like this had I known how much work it would be, but too late now.
