2025-02-08 XBox One

And Xbox One with a pile of games and controllers and such. Works fine. All very interesting to investigate.

2025-02-08 Side Table

A random little side table in usable condition. Will be sent to a place where a person needing one of these might pick it out for their home.

2025-02-08 Phillips Bits

A box of DeWalt #2 phillips bits. Partly used but lots of bits in there left to use. This may be donated to the middle school theatre club workshop.

2025-02-08 Pedals

A pair of new take-off bike pedals. Crappy but perfectly fine for some bike we will find in the future that happens to need pedals.

2025-02-08 Lodge Pot Lid

A Lodge enameled cast iron pot lid. The pot was present but damaged, so we snagged the lid.

2025-02-08 Canon Lens Mug

2025-02-08 Apple Mac Pro

A mac tower model A1289, comes with a later upgraded 6 core CPU. Boots into knoppix fine but is missing the OS drive. We may restore this to working condition.

2025-02-07 Jabra Engage 75

A Jabra Engage 75 headset. Works fine with no apparent reason for discard, but I guess we may find something after a little more testing. Using it for now.

Jabra Engage 75

This is a model with DECT wireless so has nice long range. In particular, this model works in the corporate coffee room while on a call. A different model of Jabra we had previously started breaking up in the coffee room. This device now allows for greater levels of work emulation.

 

2025-02-03 Samsung Camera

A random little Samsung camera. The battery (visible in picture) was bulging slightly and the camera only powered up for a second or two. New battery acquired and installed and it works fine.

Not sure of the quality yet on the pics but the tiny form factor is really nice.

 

2025-01-29 Sony Tape Deck

A nice looking Sony tape deck. Both the belts on it were turned into a sticky black goo in a way that somewhat defies intuitive understanding of materials. New belts acquired and installed, a drop of sewing machine oil on the capstan motor bearings and it is good to go.

Sony Tape Deck

Installing the belts was kind of tricky and a little daunting first time through. Now we have done it once it seems much more approachable should we have to do it to another such device.

 

2025-01-25 Yamaha Amplifier

A Yamaha AX-V375 receiver unit. Everything works fine. Somebody in my town just ditched their stack of black boxes under the TV in favor of a roku stick or some such.

2025-01-25 All-Clad Pot

A small but relatively tall All-Clad pot. Quite nice and handy. Probably used very little if ever by the previous owner.

2025-01-18 Lamps

A pair of lamps with the weird offset pivot in them. All present and correct.

2025-01-18 Krups Coffee Maker

A random Krups coffee maker that seems to work fine.

2025-01-18 Asus Laptop

A random ASUS laptop missing the drive. Runs Knoppix fine though.

2025-01-11 Stanley Bradawl

A nice little Stanley Bradawl in good condition. Not sure if we need it but we are not going to leave that lying around to be scrapped.

2025-01-11 Sony Amplifier

A random Sony amplifier clearly built in the age of complicated video stacks, having endless HDMI inputs and surround sound and all kinds of nonsense. Just playing a CD through this thing is kind of hard work.

This era is over in the sense that we have changed the experience by softwarizing it all into streaming apps and such, rather than havingh a pile of 17 inch wide black boxes.

Sony Amplifier

We are not fans of this type of device, but we wanted an amplifier so we grabbed this one.

 

2025-01-11 Side Table

A random faux vintage side table. It was missing one of the bolts from the lower shelf, but we can one in stock we cut down to fit. Ready to go and be faux vintage in somebody's abode.

Side Table
 

2025-01-11 Lamps

Another cluster of pretty random lamps, rescued and tested. Not as ugly some batches we have found in the past.
