My Lovely Rusted Piece of Junk

So here is my big purchase from yesterday's estate sale. My oldest son John and I got it unloaded this morning. He says "What a piece of Junk". I'll let you be the judge, I see endless possibilities with this. So what do you think - piece of junk or rusty treasure? Would you have bought it?









Hoping I can find some more trays, going to the Scott Antique show in November and hoping I can find some there. There is a vendor who has two buildings full of industrial salvage so maybe I'll get lucky!

 Linking up to Junker Newbie - Would you buy it Wednesday

  2. Definitely not junk, great for shelving and hanging things from.

  6. Well, I wouldn't buy it only because I don't have a place for it. However, if I had a shop...then absolutely!
