Paul Baxendale over at FinderMaker does more than just that with these funny looking fungi. He has found a clever and useful way of making something productive out of them, shelves!
Paul says, “One’s active participation in this tutorial is rather dependent on access to suitable mushroom specimens, and while I regret that I’m unable to offer any specific advice on where to go looking, do just keep a keen eye in the trees (up and down the trunks, specifically) the next time you are out on a ramble through a forested area, and your diligence may well be rewarded.”
