This first was mentioned previously in conjunction with another double jogger. It is a Kool Stride and had a small retaining pin missing on the folding mechanism. Recently we found a bike trailer that had been crushed by a bucket loader and salvaged a suitable pin from it to fix this thing. The picture shows it all clean and ready for the list of craig:
This next item is a Joovy Caboose, which for the stroller impaired is a sit-n-stand style. One of these has passed through our hands before. This one was wrapped up in brown package tape and pretty dirty. Careful application of a pressure washer (you know which one) and some cleaning materials yields the glorious device shown in the picture, ready for its grand debut on the list of craig.
This Cuisinart coffee machine was in fine shape when picked up and just needed a clean. We ran lots of vinegar through and flushed it and such, then brewed a test batch of coffee, shown here. We have no need of a coffee machine that has an LCD and beeps, luddites that we are, so this is available.
A random little cast iron steam radiator, enticing to the various users of the list of craig in this season of heating maintanance.
This Next Slumber Party bike is pretty horrendous but we can probably find some acquaintance who has an offspring that will fixate on this particular train wreck of gender stereotypes.
Update: Sold to a nice lady whose female offspring appreciated this ensemble of memes. We know she is nice because she bought stuff from us before. We like return customers, they get stuff super cheap.
This Dell LCD monitor is a the bog-standard offering that comes with their package deal and has nothing wrong with it, as testified by the fact that you can see Ray Winstone's face below. I guess somebody just bought a bigger monitor and tossed this one.
This is a lamp for shooting home movies that is pretty old, we think, but also pretty unused. It does provide substantial illumination and so may come in handy at some stage. Meanwhile we get to admire the fine packaging design.
These wheels were pulled of a partly crushed Emmaljunga pram. They will help us save some future pram or be sold off to help somebody else do so.
This Peg Perego Venezia pushchair is pretty nice and in near new condition except for the lack of a hood. We shall consult our supplies as we may have that in stock. Either way it will be heading off to new owners somehow.
This firewood storage rack is new in the box. It got a bit wet between discard and the picture you see but that should not affect the ultimate functionality of it when some friend of ours assembles and uses it. Hal?
This Fuji Sand Blaster mountain bike is pretty handy, despite technically being a mountain bike. The previous owner seems to have had some pretty wild and whacky ideas of exactly what the chain is supposed to do on a bike. This is a not a problem as we are traditionalists in this regard and once we have imposed our stodgy views upon things it should be fine.
What a stupid name for a bike, and how confusing. Sand Blaster, not Fuji.
A bookshop seemingly discarded a large pile of new books, including such things as advance reader copies and such. Possible pics later.
This Avalon twin pushchair is not the fanciest device in its class but is pretty small, lightweight, folds nicely and could be usefull for somebody. That somebody will become known to use via the list of craig.
We will be replacing some more windows soon and it was highly fortuitous that some lengths of clean 2x4 showed up. We now have them in stock and ready for miscellaneous framing purposes. No pic, you know what a 2x4 looks like.
This Schwinn Varsity road bike is in more or less new-old-stock condition except for the slightly critical absence of wheels and front brake pads. No matter, a lesser bike will have its wheels removed to put this thing back on the road under a hipster's arse.
Mouseover for the cleaned up pic.
This small Radio Flyer type thing with two seats and seatbelts seems to be almost useful for towing beer and offspring around. We shall see if it gains useful employment with our household.
This child's bed is complete and new in the box and never assembled, or presumably used. This will find a home with an acquaintance we have already or somebody we meet through the list of craig.
Two double joggers found at one time. One was missing a couple of tyres and both needed a light cleaning. Only the purple Dreamer Designs model pictured for now, the other one will probably make it way here pictorially at some stage.
This Schwinn Bike rack is new in the box and never used. Somebody will want it and that person will become known to us via the list of craig.
We found four "Randall Pottery" 1/2 hp potters' wheels like this but could only rescue one of them. It is in OK shape, heavily built and formerly the property of a local educational establishment. It works fine though needs a few screws put back in and cleanup etc. It is available, until it is sold on the list of craig.
This 6 quart 12 inch Lodge cast iron campfire pot is complete with lid and absolutely brand new and never used. It was discarded in a scrap metal recycling bin. It is vaguely available, apply if you think you are a worthy new owner. It has 3 legs on it so is not really suitable for stovetop use.
