3 Goodgymers (Keith, Daryl and Janet) met at the Men’s Shed in Winton Rec on a lovely sunny Saturday morning. Straight to work dismantling the pallets, after being shown some tips and new tools by John. Some of the pallets were more difficult to separate than others, especially the ones where staples had been used! A number of techniques were deployed, but by far the most satisfying was swinging the hammer onto wedges that then pushed the planks apart. Now the Men’s Shed should have enough pallets to keep them going for a while so they can produce more planters and bird boxes during their sessions.
