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.
A random Gateway PC core i5 with a bad hard drive in it. The drive was really dead, we could get it to spin up but got no data off it. PC works fine with knopppix so we will attempt to find a new home for it.
A nice Vitamix blender in perfect working condition. It is lacking the jug but is quieter than one we are currently using so we may press this into service.
A Macbook Pro with a broken screen. It boots to the login screen just fine and new screens are available so we may do that fix for this machine.
Pic shows it displaying over HDMI to another screen.
Some random kitchenware items of reasonable quality. Two Vollrath round stainless food service containers and a Williams Sonoma baking tray.
