A Trek Seven Two hybrid bike. Rear tube was destroyed at the valve area, probably in an botched attempt at replacement. That could ultimately be the reason for discard thought it was quite dusty so had a sat a while since that event.
Further evidence previous owner was a bike clutz is the state of the front skewer, one spring missing and it was cranked down by turning rather using the cam-lever.
Seven matching teak chairs. Nice wood, Brand is Royal Teak, whoever that is. They are somewhat weathered but solid.
A stainless steel food prep table that seems to be in pretty new condition. It has a couple of dings on it but is just fine.
A DCS brand rotisserie motor with long skewer. Missing the forks. Works fine, not clear at this point whether we will get forks for it and use it.
Another KicthenAid mixer without bowl or attachments. We suspect the reason for dicards was the gearbox grease breaking down. Easy enough fix and this will be a nice usable mixer for somebowy who wants one.
A Haro Flightline bike, kind of dinged up but usable. We put another tire on the rear and it is good to go now.
A maple kitchen cart on wheels with butcher-block food prep surface. It was a little dirty as found but cleaned up just fine.
A stainless steel food container. Was dirty when we found it but cleaned up nicely.
An old Craftsman shopvac. Nothing wrong with it, just needed a cleanup. Grabbed for a friend who expressed the desire for a shopvac.
Miele Olympus vacuum cleaner. Came with hose but no wand. A copper scrapping scumbag had cut the cord off but we put on a plug to test it and it works fine.
We may try to install a new cord on this. Miele sells cords only as a full retraction reel unit and they are expensive. This will involve some surgery and soldering.
Another Dyson V7 vacuum. After charging it showed the pulsing behaviour which is the diagnostic for a blockage of some form. We cleared that and it works fine now.
This has an aftermarket replacement battery on it, the one from iFixit maybe.
Yet another random dining table with a dinged up top. Shown here after third coat of varnish.
When ready will be made available to people who need a table.
A random old Craftsman lawn mower. Found with no fuel, starts fine and runs really strong but the carburetter had a leak in a plastic angle fitting. Replaced that fitting and it is a slightly beat up mower that runs really well.
A random Ridgid Shop Vac. Switch was bad but a new one was cheap. Also needed a new cable and that was in stock reclaimed from some prior appliance.
A random dining table. It is not super old but had a huge scratch and a bunch of paint splats on it. We sanded out the top and refinished it, now ready to hold up somebody's dinner.
Shown here without legs attached after getting second coat of varnish. Three coats total.
A pair of stools. Loose joints fixed by regluing and the tops were scratched so they got sanded and varnished. Ready for somebody who needs things to sit on.
An outdoor folding table. Could be teak, not really sure about that. Picture shows it after having been oiled.
A bag full of various bike parts including tires, tubes, tools and other stuff. A bunch of this stuf fis fancy Japanese market stuff.
An old Toshiba EliteBook 8570p laptop. It is a bit of a clunker but it is now converted into a chromebook for use by people who have needed of digital literacy education and hardware assistance. Shown here running Knoppix to check the specs, 8x core i7 2.70GHz and 8G RAM.
