          You are getting some collection @Zigs, nice 1. I too have had some very successful foraging in skips over the years. Managed to find 16 x 6 panel Georgian doors for a restoration I was doing out of various skips . Spent a fortune on Nitromors tho getting 100s of layers of paint off them and it is NOT a job I enjoyed. Love the earthenware trough you've got some in, such a great shape. I wonder if it was originally intended to hold plants?

            It's odd @silu never really thought about Cacti till I adopted Owcho :)

            You should have found a man with a dip tank for the doors :biggrin:

            Must have got the trough from a house clearance, think it is a pot, got drainage holes in it :)
