How can I put a dozen or so old tyres to use?

[woodlearner9810182]

Someone had dumped them up the road and I instinctively thought I would make a use for them but now I cannot think of a good use for them.

What could they be used for?

Only possibles I have read which may suite from online so far are making a roof or for composting receptacles. For a roof I might be concerned about the toxins they put into making the tyres as they are not recommended for planting vegetables due to off-gassing these toxins so wonder of the same would be the case with a roof?

I feel these tyres are kind of toxic compared to my aim for green and natural stuff on my land! I was a bit hasty in taking them and would not be simple to get rid of them now so would be good to find a use for them that I deem acceptable and useful.

Hmm, I actually have some gravel on order to drop down on the mud to be able to park. Would they be useful as a ground barrier around the area to slow the grass and other weeds in the surrounding area from coming over to the gravel parking space?

Or, since the land is boggy and they are a waterproof barrier, can they be used to shore up channels for irrigation?

Use the tread to make some sandals?

Filled with dirt/gravel they make a Great Wall, can be covered in clay so you can see them.

Stack 2/3 and a post in the middle and filled with dirt/gravel they will act as a great counter weight, giving you a good upright for a structure.

Have you ever tried cutting one?

Potatoes! Rather than earthing up as they grow, add another tyre and fill with soil. To harvest, just kick them over.

As an aside, I don’t think there are many punishments harsh enough for fly tipping.

I’ve seen these eco warriors build houses out of them , you would need a few more but judging by how many get dumped around the country you wouldn’t have to wait too long . …

Knee Pads. Lots and lots of knee pads. You're welcome.

The last one I tried to cut you wouldn't have had a snowballs chance in **** of cutting like that.

Try googling tyre recycling centre there’s loads of them, some even collect

I agree, but it's automated, isn't it?
The daft thing is, that if you just cut and paste images, you can circumvent the blue pencil completely.

Cut & paste is rarely used unless you are in the advertising industry.
The norm is copy & paste.
