    SWMBO & I are just back from the Chelsea Flower Show - not normally a subject for this forum, but I saw this on a stand and couldn't resist bringing one home

    We are so vulnerable . . . all it takes is a pair of wings and a prop that moves! Very cool!

    These are great - I spotted one over a shed door on the way to the high street just the other day.

    If only I didn't have a garden - I bought the biplane weather vane (cheap), my wife bought a three-seater swinging chair constructed with hardwood (expensive) - ah well, easy come, easy go

    That's a very nice spin on a windmill weather vane!

    Excellent find. Now if the prop only had two blades.

    Love it ... I'd buy one with or without a garden and have it attached or mounted to the roof. One thing I agree on though is that there are too many propeller blades: A pair of contra-rotating props on the front would make it look even cooler!

    I was given this as a gift from friends who know my passion for things with more than one wing:
