Where can I start?

captaindrewi:
I was thinking Owl meant the pieces of wood with cut outs,the ones labelled runner in his diagram?

Drew: Having re-read the post, I dunno what caps are on a pallet! I  thought he mean`t holes for the forklift....In fact I think the Picture is just an illustration from the Web? Without an Anim8or WIP I can`t see what Owl is trying to acheive , a pallet can be made very easily....perhaps a full tutorial for uninitiated users.

EDIT : 5 minute pallet model attached

 

Owl:
Thank you MUCH Guys for your help. Spent about 10 hours on that, should have asked for help sooner.

Is this right .... The missing piece of the puzzle is that you need to use the "Knot Editor">"Knot parameter">close, to close a "Path" if one expects to have the build>extrusion put "caps on? Otherwise the extrusion has no "caps".

After an hour trying, can't find but one reference to "Knot Editor" and not for this reason. Also the Knot Editor seems to only have a "close" choice in version .98.
The documentation doesn't mention "close" only mentions "corner".  This is one reason I use 0.98a sometimes it better fit the documentation in parts.

Now I want to wrap some wood grain around the boards.
Wood grain samples ( https://www.google.com/search?q=wood+grain&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ )
Can you do that in 5 minutes? (please)

kreator:
there you go

Owl:
Thank You - Now I have to figure out what you did so I can wrap a plank in an image.
Seems like all I needed to do was:
1) Ungroup the object.
2) Select everything
3) Select the materials icon (4 balls)
4) Select and load the image under "diffuse" (not sure why that one, but others seem to be doing that)
5) "Close" and "apply"
Worked!!
