Abstract: An expandable plant caddy assembly is provided with a frame with a plurality of legs. A plurality of plates is each mounted for translation to one of the plurality of legs, to collectively support a planter, and to allow expansion to accommodate planters of varying sizes. A plurality of guides is each mounted to one of the plurality of plates to connect each plate for translation along the corresponding leg of the plurality of legs. A plurality of casters is each mounted to one of the plurality of guides with the corresponding leg therebetween to apply compression upon the corresponding leg between the caster and the guide to resist inadvertent adjustment of each of the plurality of plates, and to permit travel of the expandable plant caddy.

Abstract: A molded pot is provided with imperfections manufactured by manufacturing mold tooling with imperfections by obtaining a handmade pot. The handmade pot is scanned to obtain geometric data. The geometric data is converted to mold tooling geometric data. Mold tooling is manufactured from the mold tooling geometric data. The handmade pot is obtained with imperfections. The handmade pot is scanned to obtain the geometric data of the handmade pot with the imperfections. The geometric data is converted to mold tooling geometric data with the imperfections. The mold tooling is manufactured with imperfections. A pot is molded with imperfections from the mold tooling.

Abstract: A self-watering planter comprises an outer shell, an inner shell and a water delivery device having a valve element. The outer shell is defined by a bottom surface, a body section and a top opening providing access to an interior. The inner shell is defined by a bottom surface, a body section and a top opening providing access to an interior. The inner shell is sized to be smaller than the interior of the outer shell such that when the inner shell is disposed within the interior of the outer shell, a hollow area is formed between the inner shell and the outer shell for retaining water. An opening is formed through a rim of the planter to provide access to the hollow area for water to be received and stored, and water is metered into the interior of the inner shell by the valve element.

Abstract: A snow shovel blade is provided. The snow shovel blade is a stamped metal body with a generally planar portion, a curved portion, and two opposed lateral, depending sidewalls. The sidewalls are supporting sidewalls.

Abstract: Nested planters are provided. The nested planters include a body having a base assembly and a depending sidewall, the body defining a substantially enclosed space. The base assembly includes a generally horizontal planar member and a stand-off feature. The stand-off feature is structured to extend downwardly from the planar member. A substantial portion of the body sidewall is structured to correspond to the body sidewall of another nesting planter when two nesting planters are nested.
