    Default Aladdin's cave

    It has only recently occurred to me that I had never seen this place referenced on the forum. I have bought kauri and Baltic pine imperial dimensioned floor boards from them and odd hinges and locks but they are actually much more than just that. They have a fabulous supply of rescued windows, doors and fireplaces that is to die for. I have no connection whatsoever to the place but I think they could be of great interest to many of our restorers?
    Their webpage is worth a look but have your drool towel close at hand!

    Thanks for the link. I've always thought Sydney has a mass drought of these quality recycling places. Melbourne seems to have a lot.

    I went there today looking for some pieces for a project I'm working on. Every time I go there, I find more treasures and more opportunities ..... and more dreams!
    I can't recommend it highly enough.
    Just as a sample, I took the following pic of a small part of their leadlight window collection...

    I guess Mcjings closed down it was also known as Aladins Cave

    I wonder if they have drip trays for hall stands I can't spot anything on line.
