Placeable Props?

After some conversation today I have the urge to create a new set of placeable props, similar to those for purchase currently (tents, bedrolls, alters, etc).
If I can manage it, and if I can talk them into game at the prop merchants, what all would you like to see?
An artist easel is on the list, as per this thread (did it ever get in game?)

What else would you like to see as a portable/placeable/prop?

A table of normal height (the only one we have is the "Merchant stall" which is about 6 inches off the ground)
A covered merchant stall like the ones in the middle of the market area (four posts in the corners with a little angled cloth roof)
A tripod with pot, like the one over the East Gate campfire. or maybe just a firepit with a tripod on it, I'm not sure if that is one or two placeables.
Less high on my wishlist would be:
A crate/stack of crates, For RP use and stuff

Wagons, various types.
Barrels, buckets, and bowls.
Washing basin.
Combat dummies/archery targets.
Smaller altars (the ones we already have are great, but sometimes you just want a small one that you use while kneeling).
Chairs.

I don't see a fire with a pot.. these two would be options?
And here is an assortment of other things. The 'wash basin' is more like a bath tub, but there is a copper basin there on the ground and a few buckets. Some barrels, baskets, and such. A merchant stall. Wagons in the back. Etc.
RIP my inventory space.
(pardon the quality, play on a potato)

For the savage/wilderness-y types

This is the one I was thinking of:
Rest of the stuff you linked would be awesome! Also as I mentioned on discord, some
palisades if you can do them. I'm pretty sure NWN2 has them somewhere.
Oh! Oh! Personal request:
Sheep carcass. For uh... cooking. Yes. Not sacrifices. <.<
That also reminds me, goblets, pitchers, and baskets could be nice, too.
... there's so much stuff that would be so nice to have available.

In order:
1. Planehopper's picture above of a rack for hanging fish/game
2. Tripod with pot
3. Note pinned up with dagger/arrow
4. Spiked siege barrier (extremely heavy + destructible) - how much RP could you do with this?! Waylaying people on the road, holding out against innumerable odds in a defensible position
5. Torch that gives off light
6. Hammock
7. Pile of pillows

1 & 2 shouldnt be a problem, those will probably be useful across a wide range of players.
3 - gotta remember these arent aimed or placed real accurately. Being a vertical design, and one that would require you land it on a surface, would make it nearly impossible (and I dont have a placeable to match it that I can find).
4. Only barriers I saw were the one I posted and then another that is made up of a pile of broken tables and chairs. Atmospheric, but not as good imo.
5. Yes! There is a bucket in Soubar that has working torches. Go grab them there. That bucket needs replicated in every store.
6. The only hammock we have is in the pic below. Its from a ship placeable set, so its double, and not really natural looking. I doubt it is what you had in mind?
7. Pillows we do have!
I thought the fishing tackle thing may be cool to use while fishing, too? Feel free to ignore the heads on pikes. Lol.

Would anyone get mileage out of theatrical backdrops?

Still looking for that washtub. I dont see it in what I have available.
The sheep carcass is doable ya freak.
The palisade placeable is gigantic in it's original dimensions. The smaller version is .5 scale. What do you think?

Smaller palisades are way more sensible, go with those.

Hammock - yeah that's not really what I was thinking of, it doesn't look very portable
Fishing rod & tackle - great idea
Pallisade 1/2 size is pretty cool imo for a temporary blockade. Will be abusable if it isn't very heavy though (I'm thinking people using to block mobs and pick them off with spells/missiles)
I didn't know about the bucket of torches. Placeable ones?! Thanks for the tip!

Did these ever get added to the module and/or to a vendor?

What about a flag Señor Builder?!
How cool would it be to be able to plant a banner on the ground, and see it in all its glory waving the symbol of Bane…*cough*…I mean, Unicorns!!!
It could also allow for players to setup a “capture the flag” scenario / contest!! Lol.
Still, I do like the idea of a PC planting a flag somewhere and saying “This is mine!” then another PC(s) having or making a reaction to such.
