I've used some of the long pallets with good tropical wood in my house as trim; I've also made wood toys out of some of the smaller oak and cherry you can find. I have a little joiner I use to plane them (you have to be very careful to get any and all metal out of course) the worst part of using this wood is that a lot of these pallets are assembled with spiral nails that are a real challenge to remove. I resorted to cutting them with a reciprocating saw, then drilling out the nail fragment; later using a dowel plug on the hole. You can find some great hardwoods in pallets! A black plastic solar "Kiln" will dry and kill any bugs. Like another post, I've heated my house with them for more than one broke winter month! Have fun...
