2009-07-18 Instep Double Jogger

This Instep Safari TT double jogger had a bad bearing on the front wheel swivel. By bad we mean that it had totally disintegrated due to the fact that the bearings were not really made to take an axial load. No matter, the manufacturer charged us 4 dollars for new bearings and installed them with minimal fuss. It is now ready for a new life with some nice people to be sent to us by the list of craig.

Update: Sold to the nice chap who previously bought the bike trainer. He was so nice we gave him a free Fuji mountain bike that had not yet made its appearance here.

2009-07-18 Graco Pack and Play

This Graco Pack and Play is in fine condition. It is of a more modern type with easier to see collapse buttons on the edges (if you have ever used a Pack and Play you will udnerstand that statement). It also has wheels on one end. Somebody who wishes to imprison their offspring in it will introduce themselevs to us via the list of craig.

2009-07-18 Chicago Knives

In the scrap metal we found a biscuit tin with around 20 knives in it. Most of them were total junk but these two Chicago knives are of OK quality and we like them because of their nice wooden handles. They had been through a dishwasher many times and the handles were pretty dry and bleached but some oil brought them back to life. They were not super blunt when picked up and quick hone leaves them servicable.

2009-07-18 Bike Pump

This random bike pump may be good for summer interns to use.

2009-07-18 Bike Parts

This small collection of bike parts came from a couple of bike carcasses. They will be filed away so that another bike may be resurrected at some point in the future.

2009-07-08 Bluestone

This conveniently pre-aged bluestone showed up and was purloined for a friend who wishes to deploy a garden path to lead people up. All well and good. There was a fair bit more present but somebody had emptied a bunch of wet concrete over some of it and glue it into a large bluestone ansd concrete mass.

2009-07-05 Schwinn Speedster

This Schwinn Speedster bike and a Rollfast beach cruiser were being tossed by a nice chap. We picked them up and applied some spit and polish to the Schwinn to make it hipster ready. Now that that is a fine yellow thingy.

No picture of the Rollfast yet, it has tentatively been given to somebody's daughter.
