        I also thought about a lesser stellated dodecahedron!

                If they are oak then they would be great for making a compost area as they would last years before rotting.

                    Basically a huge version of this for either a shed or chook house
                    Hmmm - there has always been a lot of urban mythology / new age discussion () concerning pyramidal-shaped things. Razor blades staying sharp forever when stored in something pyramidal etc. Always been sceptical myself, but you never know...

                    So maybe you should try and make a pyramidal run? Not only will it be unique but you might get immortal chooks. Or slightly freaked out ones, at any rate...

                    Although, of course, making a pyramid out of rectangular doors wont be that easy without a lot of sawing!

                    Woof

                      I second the compost bin idea. You could use some as lids to stop rainwater getting in and heat getting out. If they still have hinges even better!!

                        Cut them into foot high strips and make loads of raised beds , they won't rot so easily either

                          go for the compost bins first the another shed,you cannever have too much compost or too many sheds for that matter
                          don't be afraid to innovate and try new things
