I have spent several hours this weekend trying to "reclaim" wood from several pallets. I spent about 1 1/2 - 2 hours on the first one, trying to gently pry the pieces off, pull nails, etc. About 50% of the pieces split. I started on a second one, and found every board I tried to lift up enough to get nails off, split. The third and fourth ones, well, lets just say I have a bunch of pieces about 14" long, and NOT split. I got some decent pieces of nice, dry red oak out of one, but I an going to have to rip them and glue them up to have any thing of consequence.
Any suggestions as to how to take these things apart without spitting the wood?
