    cheers mate.
    trugs were used many years ago over here in the fields to collect either fruit and veg or flowers,
    they take me about a week to 2 weeks each depending on size and the wood used. but the end result is very rewarding.

    I reckon that a WIP from you on making a trug looks like it would be a winner!

    Welcome to the Forums
