This has probably been done before but a search found nothing with similar title .

Old tubes & tyres go down the allotment .They have many uses ,
Old broken frames I find .Cut up and used on my plot . Bigger diameter tubes for starting off leeks etc . smaller ones for stakes .
Old drinks bottle for planting seeds & mudgard flaps .
Old chains various uses ie art work together with cassette bits .

Old frying pan with handle removed, parts washer .
Tried old rims for climbing plants . As welding needed it was not practical.

Any other ideas?

When I were a lad my old man rigged up a bicycle wheel as an indoor TV aerial. It did work too.
