That thing is huge, I like the rustic look.

Made a table for Pathfinder out of an old Cable Drum

They are very nice.  Just hard to find the spools now a days.

Have any local electric supply companies? Ours gives them away. We use them for our turkeys to roost.

My neighbor at the farm works for the biggest Electric Contractor in the area...he says they pay a deposit on them or sometimes reuse them.  

I do keep my eyes open though.

I should start a blackmarket for all the things we can get for free up here.

pallets are easy here...scrap metal gets snatched up pretty quickly...a lot of 'scrappers' and some are pretty bold.
