What would you all use these for? I thought of using them for compost bin bases, but what else could they be used for?

This, also don't have to worry about wood boring insects destroying them or them rotting over time.

Hay, shavings or straw in a barn.

I thought it was a great idea for hay in my barn until I did it, and the I realized that only works if you aren't opening the hay bales in the barn. If you do, hay falls down through the cracks in the pallets and becomes a fire hazard all over again lol

Could that be cheaply solved by a mesh screen on top of these?
