Sorry Mikey, but a classic what? Bookcase?
All it needs is shelves and someone to stand it up!
"Oz PD Racer" Race against what? Sea cucumbers?
(The seller does mention it could make a good sandpit)

Ok, ok, before anyone else says it, I know I'm a hypocrite. I love everything, good, bad and ugly that members put on this thread.
But this one couldn't pass without some comment
(perhaps there should be a rule that boats entered here should have at least one pointy end)

Caulk the corners well and use it as a concrete mixing tub . . .

That will be enough out of you two.

Did you see that Jim Michalak and John Welsford have joined Mik in offering their versions of the mighty Duck.

Volkswagon of the sea! :D

With the rounded sides on the Welsford version, you can slide a mixing hoe back and forth much easier too. Michalak's designs have all been Puddle Duck variants haven't they . . .

I've been looking to install and concrete drive in front of the barn, maybe I'll need to do some mixing by hand . . .

Ah ha a new class, sailing concrete mixing tub from Riccelli Design should create quite a stir. :rolleyes: :D

Ah! A new angle on ferro-cement design. Well done, Par
