A Potluck brand stainless steel skillet in good condition. The base is perfectly flat. Nothing special but presumably quite usable.
A Solo Stove stainless steel firepit. We will give this a test but it has already revealed an awful design flaw to us, what happens to the ash. It is a huge pain to clean the ash out from these things. This brings the suspicion that people throw them away rather than cleaning them out.
A pair of fiskars lopper that have an incorrect bolt in one location, leading to them not working. We will investigate a fix for them.
An extendable single leg dining table. Compact tables like this are in demand in a certain constituency that we service now and then.
Some very modern looking dining chairs, pretty solid construction, good for use.
A couple of large Pyrex oven dishes in good condition. They will be sent to where they are needed.
A set of four outdoor folding chairs. They needed a clean and some of the hardware was rusted so we freshened some of that stuff up and they are good as new.
Already allocated to a new home owner.
A Texas Instruments graphical calculator, just the thing required for somebody in our household who will be undergoing the educational courses requiring such.
A random stainless steel mug, rendered undesirable by the previous owner presumably because this brand is not trendy any more.
A small table with drawer and folding leaves. The legs were loose so the nuts underneath all got a tweak. The top got a quick polich and it is off to find a new home.
A Gourmia Foodstation, whatever that is. It claims to do all sorts of food cookage stuff including some mode of air frying. This is also acquired upon request for a friend.
A random Dune City bike. Dusty and had two flat tires but it cleaned up and aired up just fine to be ridable.
A air fryer from Sur-la-table. It is used and needs a clean. We got this for a friend who had requested such, so we will see if they like it.
A random KitchenAid kettle. Works fine, had light scale inside that we removed with vinegar. All ready to make lots of tea or whatever.
Some matching stainless steel cooking utensils. Nothing wrong with them and they look pretty much new and unused. They are somewhat cheaply stamped with a slight edge on them, we may upgrade them by smoothing out that stamped edge with emery paper. Whatever, ready for use either way.
A Wagner cast iron cooking pot with a lid and wire handle. The lid is possibly not matching but still Wagner.
This is a beautiful vintage piece of cookware, good for the stove, the oven or the campfire.
A set of Mavic 700C bike wheels, lightly used and seemingly good for use. Tyres hold air, good 10-speed cluster.
A random Denon amplifer that works nicely. Now in use as part of "Legacy audio media platform". That is what we are calling it.
A random little GE 700W microwave. We measured output at 488W, so it is probably still working well enough.
This Delta Midi lathe showed up in pieces and missing a bunch of them. We are not sure if it was discarded with the tailstock or not. We had to source a bunch of screws to even test the motor. After assembly is runs fine, though you have to hand start it becaus ethe capacitor is weak or bad. We suspect that was the orgininal reason for discard.
The faceplate has 20 thou runout on the front face. We think because it is missing a special backing washer. We have ordered that and if it fixes the runout we may invest more time and energy into this machine.
