Anybody get any good deals lately?

Got a lucky freebie today!

It was a bit mucky and smelly (Old syrup) but a good few rinses and a hard scrubadubdub soon sorted that out!

It's a 200L capacity so makes a perfect partner for my big stripper.

I've just dug out a 28mm valve to fit at the base, but Mrs Moose just came out and got a look, she's not too happy about having a "Fat White Tank" in the garden, so I'm going to have to get creative to make it blend in somehow...
Any suggestions?

I've seen some rain barrels painted in a garden by an artist.

If you're lucky to find an artist that likes your product, maybe you can barter.

Nice! The Federales come snooping, they'll walk right by it. You could put a decoy gutter downspout from the roof right up to the lid.

That’s a cool idea, Zach,
I’ve never come across handpainted barrels before.

I did a Distillery tour about 10 years ago, I bought a couple of cartons of handpainted bottles of them. I use them to bottle brandy for gifts.

You know what, she might be kinda happy with a pretty painted one like that, great shout Zach!

Now I just need to find an artist. Anyone got Banksy's number?

You would be a rich man if you had an original Banksy painted fermenter….

I had envisioned mechanic tools but after I got in the garage it got filled with other stuff that never had a safe, handy spot

Nice score Corny

Must be way you took pic but it looks like it’s only an inch deep

[Bushman]

My son has been looking for a tool cart, good score!

[Corn Cracker]

There has been a few come through but most were worn and went for more, i wasn't expecting the 50 to win, and wasn't going to go too much higher

Picked up an antique Tantalus today from the local auction. I gotta clean it up still but, wow, it's gonna be a nice piece on the bar.
