King size bed slat (BS16)
We broke one of our bed slats while moving. I’ve tried to buy a full length king size slat in various stores but they don’t sell them in the right size. Hoping someone might be getting rid of a king size bed that I could repurpose one from.

Sorry I don’t have a tape measure, hence the hand for scale. About the right size to cover a doorstep, or be a splash back. Shed clearance before house move. Please check out my other diy posts.

Large garden store/bin tidy (BS16 1SE)
Gifted
Large plastic bin tidy/garden store. The plastic hinge cases for the lid have snapped a little (see last photo) which is making it a bit unwieldy for me to lift. It is still usable though for someone a bit stronger. It all slots into place and is in a partially dismantled condition for easy transport.
