Yet another find from Materialicio.us. Too bad I can’t come up with my own material. (Get it?)

These decorative cast grates by Iron Age Designs can be used as trench drains, catch basins or tree grates. They are made from recycled products and are ADA compliant.

I use antique grills for some of my “creations” and always prefer to go with original salvaged pieces when I can. But then I had a look at Iron Age’s prices. Why am I spending hours taking paint off of something that costs nearly as much? You don’t have to answer that.
