Crikey. That one is a bit bigger than mine. I paid £10 and £3 for the one that is half the size. A friend is coming round later and hopefully bringing an angle grinder
I have some old galvanized cattle troughs which I've painted black, drilled holes in the bottoms and planted climbers and bulbs to use in a courtyard garden; looks good.
Based in Sussex, I garden to encourage as many birds to my garden as possible.

That sounds lovely. Or you could do this with your cattle troughs....
If I'd paid that much for a tank, not that I would, I wouldn't be able to bring myself to cut it for, say a table, Jenny_Aster, I'm struggling as it is for a tenner.
Lucky you Redwing, I'd love some of those but they fetch quite a lot of money these days. In fact, I like old farm implements too. I might start a thread on strange things in our gardens.
I know I'm taking this off-topic but I'll just show you this. It's made from a pinch bar, pickaxe heads, and scrap metal, supposed to be a tulip. Not a good pic as it's raining. There's a scrap metal yard not far from me and it's a scavenger's dream.

I like the old wheel at the base. It's great to be able to use such stuff....should say reuse.
