Interesting WebsiteJust been having a look here:http://www.powen.freeserve.co.uk/Projects/projectsindex.htm I like the comfrey-squasher. Loads of other ideas for using plastic bottles of all shapes and sizes, amongst other things. The only thing I would add to the tool-rack idea is that you might want to make a frame out of old bits of 2x2 for the wire mesh to be fixed to, which then fixes to the wall - this makes it much much simpler to thread your tool hooks (I use Ikea butchers' hooks) into. |

Still worth bringing up again. Has anyone ever tried one of these:

You could sit your chickens in it to persuade them to lay when it is dark

That's a great site lozzie. I'm going to make some bat boxes and lacewing nests. I've also got a lot of cane cutoffs so I presume if I tie a bunch of these together it will attract ladybirds as well. | ||

I'd not seen it before Lozzie, so thanks for posting it. I'm going to save it and have a good look later. |
