repurposed forum

I'd love to see your innovations that stem from repurposed materials. I'll start.


First a Dutch oven table thingy out of an old Turkey fryer stand, a wheeled shop stool, and some legs off of who knows what.

Second is an old horse drawn buggy step that will soon hang under the door of my standee.

This is a good idea. We need all our ideas in one thread. :D

I hope BobHenry pops into this thread. He is the King of re-purposed. Off the top of my head, I can think of his:

- use of an adjustable crutch as a table leg;
- a large coffee pot as a water heater;
- his dutch oven stand that uses a walker plus a satellite dish; and now,
- his use of an old bed's head and foot parts as a railing on his new caboose build.

I would love to see a list of all the things that BobHenry has re-purposed. I couldn't find the DO table thread and fear that some of these tips will get lost among the myriad of other threads.

My favorites have been the crutch repurposed as a support for a fold out table top and (and I imaging this?) a walker + a satellite dish fashioned into a dutch oven stand.

Yup! Those were some of BobHenry's ideas.
