DIY Flood Barrier Using Shipping Pallets PART 2
This is a DIY Flood Barrier using only shipping pallets, T-Posts, 6mm plastic, 2x4's, and some Gorilla Tape. It costed about $6 per linear foot. (not including the T-Post pounder) This was only the 2nd attempt at this test. For this test, we went back and added some 2x4 supports which allowed this barrier to remain full and in place for over an hour.
WHY ARE WE FILMING THESE EXPERIMENTS? Flood Defense Group is always called with pleas for help when areas within the USA are flooding. When asked if we can help, we cannot stand by and do nothing.

By figuring out ways to stop flood water with locally available materials, we have the ability to help desperate home owners to help themselves. Sure, we may lose business by people building these DIY flood barriers instead by we feel that is serves the greater good. Please 'like' and 'share' because that is helpful for us in getting the message out about how people can still take action to save their homes in the face of overwhelming floodwaters with Do It Yourself Flood Barriers.
