Absolutely nothing can prepare you for your first encounter with an Orbistor, Bob. Alien, otherworldly... almost too beautiful to exist: Orbistor, Orbistor, Or-bis-tor. 😊 I've seen another since then, which I hope to feature later in season 2.0. 🌝

Extreme Orbistor close-up!

Absolutely no chipping or rusting βœ‹πŸš«

The widest. Bigly!

Nestor is as Nestor does! πŸ’› Here's one in the wild, outside Shrewsbury R.C. Cathedral!

A yellow Glasdon Nestorβ„’ 90 grot bin stands against a stone wall outside Shrewsbury Roman Catholic Cathedral.

Who knows @natalan.bsky.social @bobfry.bsky.social, if you're really lucky you might even encounter the Rolls Royce of grit bins, the incomparable and wondrous #Glasdon #Orbistor 😍

Here's one I saw in Knighton Radnorshire earlier this year:

And, while we're at, let's also zero-in on another Glasdon classic: the Nestorβ„’ 90 πŸ’›

Continuing our series of Grit Salt Bin Monday #BinginnersGuides, tonight it's time to focus on a brand that is the industry standard in rotationally-moulded binage: #Glasdon!

Here @natalan.bsky.social and @bobfry.bsky.social is your operational guide to the Nestorβ„’ 400:

Another lovely wander through the lesser trodden paths of outer London with John Rogers:

🎢 If there's a bustle in your hedgerow,
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the grit bin 🎢

And not just any grit bin, either, but a green Bonar Rotoform grit bin 😍

An elegant green grit bin, made by the now sadly defunct Bonar Rotoform Ltd (of Sheffield), situated beneath a roadside hedgerow on Valeswood Lane in north Shropshire. In the far distance, the distinctive outline of The Wrekin Hill can be glimpsed through an open field gate.

I just had a look at their website - what an amazing shop window that is! 😍 Have you thought about going in and just asking if you can have a go? I bet they wouldn't mind, if you explained you were a beginner and just looking at instruments.

Hard to beat a good bending! Here's a bit of Glenn for you:

*Tremolo arm!

@marcpetty.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 5:11 PM

I would go for it! It's tremendous fun, and you can buy a really good instrument for next to nothing these days.

@marcpetty.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 5:10 PM

You are Greenfields answer to Glenn Branca and I claim my Β£5! πŸ™‹ While I think your playing has pleasing and relentlessly nihilistic quality, Fr Mo, I feel turning the gain down to about 3 and some judicious palm muting would yield surprising results! Also: did that guitar have a tremelo arm?
