    Something usefull made from trash

    Old cast iron heat registers, the white plastic on the table is a discard from the hog plant, originally used as a cutting board, the legs are from an old chair.

    Used an orphan register to make this table rather than break up the pair shown above.

    Our house is filled with trash. Sometime I will post some pictures of Pats lamps and ornamental cast iron bits she collects.

    From what I just saw you all would not have trash,only proud works of art.

    This to me is the best part of scrapping.
    Turning junk into useful and or artistic stuff for the home or for better profits.
    I like that table lots.
