A random Gary Fisher Mako mountain bike thingy. It has some severe neglect, but otherwise seems fine. The grips were degraded to sticky tar-like crap. It will be cleaned up and put back into service.
Two really nice stainless steel pot lids, one All-Clad and one Calphalon. We had no need of them some body sent to use from the list of craig did, so they have a new home.
A random little Wusthof paring knife. It was just lying next to a path through some woods. It is quite sharp and has been used already.
A nice big F-clamp. It was super rusty when acquired but has been cleaned up and painted in our standard clamp color scheme. It now hangs on the clamp rack and is ready to clamp stuff.
People seem to leave these Hydro Flask thing lying around all over, but this one was picked up by a post hurricane flood and left wedged against a tree in the woods. Cleaned up just fine.
A random Baby Jogger City Elite jogging stroller was dropped off by a friend of a friend. Certainly has been used but a nice instance and ready for a new home after cleaning.
Three cacti, pulled from a dumpster and all ready to go. How nice.
Update: There were actually five cati and one orchid. Apparently when taking the picture they were off to one side.
A Schwinn Ranger mountain bike, more or less. Much neglected and never really ridden. It will be be given a big tuneup and then a new rider will be found for it.
The small problem of it being upside down should be easily correctable.
Babyjogger City Mini double stroller. It is pretty dusty but otherwise seems in OK shape.
A larger sized deltawing scooter-ish device than we have had so far. Interesting. Presumably the offspring will test it out and pass judgement.
Dell Studio XPS 6 core machine with 12G RAM. No storage included, but somebody will want this for parts or building up.
A pair of random Bonntrager 700C road bike tires. They are not very worn, probably take-off for an upgrade or some such. Whatever, good to have replacemtns in our parts portfolio.
A random Ryobi scroll saw with a fair amount of dust and crud on it. This is not the first we have found, though we may keep this one for a while.
A 700C bike wheel, seems all straight and good to ride, with a matching tire and also a random mountain bike tire. Will be stored aways for use as spares.
This random Trek bike frame was in the garbage behind a bike shop. We would suspect there was something wrong with but so far we cannot see any cracks or damaged threads or whatever.
A random Praxis Works crankset. The teeth are a little worn and I have no idea if there is anything really wrong with it, but it will go in the parts bin or be sold.
A swivel stool with backrest. Quite vintage and apparently property of the US Navy. We will use this at our kitchen bar.
Here is the little identifier plate on the back.
This is a nice little power strip. It has a reasonably long cable on it with a right angled plug, super handy. It may be pressed into service for our small fleets of pi devices on the server shelf.
Update: Now in use for a small pi server farm.
A cast iron muffin tray thingy, in pretty nice shape. The pic shows it after a quick smoke with some canola oil on it to get it nice and coated.
A random Schwinn beach cruiser bike. Some rust here and there but after air in the tyres is rideable, such that one ever actually rides a beach cruiser.
