Homebase mixing tray 'table'

**Alan1** · 05-02-2009, 08:16 PM

Someone was asking a while back about the mixing trays sold in Homebase but when I went to take a photo they had none left. They are back in stock now so here's the pics. The tray is 3ft long x 2ft wide x 8 inches deep. Last time they were £13.99 I think but now they are £15.99

Looks a good idea.
You could always incorporate this into a wooden framed box too, to give you deeper sides but with a waterproof base to hold the substrate (just in case the tray isnt deep enough to stop any mountaineers). Someone was the other day asking about how to waterproof the wooden table top boxes - this would be an ideal way of doing it.

Similar to the storage tubs I use for isolation/quarantine/temp housing, but not as deep:

Not a great pic, sorry. They are good because they are easy to disinfect so do the job I want. Also only £9 from Ikea.

Anyone got any photographs of one of these filled as an enclosure?

Henry-flash · 06-02-2009, 06:31 PM

I have, but you will have to bare with me as they are on the other computer!

If they don't have them in the shop I'd ask them to check other Homebase stores for you on their computer, they did this for me when I was looking for a shower once
