A couple of bucks for both at a second hand store. I wanted the wire basket for produce when I pick and easy to wash produce in he basket. The item I'm not sure of is the cage type meal basket. It is vey heavy made.

Didn`t they put people in those things and hang them from the dungeon ceiling during the Spanish Inquisitions?

You might be on to something there, but this would have to be the child size version.

Maybe a "day cage" for displaying larger birds for sale.


Keep your boots dry.

Decorative garbage bin. Put it at the end of the driveway and place 2 bags of garbage inside. Hopefully the truck doesn’t take the cage.

Since this is a trapping based site and there are definitely guys here with access to Beavers, what about taking 3-4 Beavers, sans coats, season them up well and put them in "The Device", close the lid and put them on the Hot Dog Roller that is currently being discussed on another thread. What could go wrong??? OK, the first while might be a bit lumpy and racketous, since The Device is square and of course, the hot dog roller is...........yes, still round. But my feeling is that if a -40F tire can get back to round, eventually, so can The Device. It may be worth the stretch.

Ok. Can't really tell size and all, but a loooooong time ago I saw something similar to that. It was on my Grandmothers porch. Not exactly sure if it was the original usage, but hers had the ends of homemade bread in it for the birds to eat. It was hung on a hook, right above the porch railing. Hers was roughly the size of one of them old lunch boxes that had the thermos in the lid. G.

That is interesting! A large loaf of bread would fit in it easily. That is exactly what it reminds me of and Thanks.
