This special turd drill seems be in working condition and will come in handy because we do not have one. Previously we have always borrowed one.
This bike trainer came with the recent Schwinn road bike but we only just got around to cleaning it up. It will attempt to hook up with a new owner on the list of craig.
This small Giant mountain bike had a flat rear tyre but is otherwise in OK shape. Some parts on it seem to be new and others used, no matter. Earmarked for Hal's cousin?
This Graco Duo Glider double stroller is in fine shape and needs just a wash before being put back into service with some nice people sent to us by the list of craig. We have a slight glut of these right now but we will see about fixing that.
This Schwinn was found without a rear wheel. That is a little strange as it had obviously been used on a bike trainer treadmill, i.e. without the front wheel. Oh well, we plonked one on from stock and will see how it is. We also got the treadmill thingy as people seem to like those.
This Road Runner Sport jogging stroller has humungous rear wheels on it and is generally in spiffy condition. The brake needs a little tweaking but that will be fine.
This Peg Perego Pliko P3 pushchair is in OK used shape except for having a couple of broken wheels on the front left. Luckily, we, or more specifically the Verrückte Tante, know how to get a whole new castor arrangement for very little money. Spiffy, restored and will be lovingly sold to somebody who needs it.
This weirdly abstract play kitchen was sitting by the side of the road so we brought it home and clean it up. It seems to serve the purpose of entertaining and distracting certain offspring with reasonable efficiency, so it gets to stay. It actually showed up 2 weeks ago but we forgot to list it then, the horror!
Large backlog of bikes in the background. We should probably get building and fixing though come to look at it two of those became parts since this picture was taken and some of those parts are already back on fixed up bikes.
This Graco Pack and Play is not the cleanest but is fully functional and good for offspring imprisionment. Better still, good for small dogs.
This mountain bike has been painted over with an overspray-mungous sloppy black by its (presumably) angst ridden teenage owner. Isn't there a pill for that now amongst the plethora of elective offspring medications? Anyway, we suspect it looks better this way (in a Mad Max sense, not in the way the previous owner imagined) than before so we fixed it up a little and it shall be made available. Just needs a chain.
This Maclaren Volo pushchair is in fine shape and has a handy dandy hood. It was picked up a week or so ago for us by a friendly chap and it is already sold off to a new home via the list of craig.
It does have front wheels and such, but I gave you a cropped pic to show the nice colourful parts of it in better details. With lots of aliasing stuff on the mesh.
We found a large cardboard box with various cookware in it, including these and other Calphalon pans. The large flat one is good to use but the others may demand some warranty work.
This Trek 220 is in almost new condition and seems to be targeted at juvenile females. For a junky "made in china" kids' bike it is pretty fancy. Whatever the original target market, a quick check over and we will try to find a new home for it.
This push lawn mower seems in fine shape though it needs the blade setting. It has a wide cut and we will be giving it to certain friends as part of our carbon neutral lawn mower distribution program. Other acquaintances may also want this...
This Ross Compact bike is a bit strange, it has a shimano 3-speed gear hub and a strange wavy frame. It is in excellent condition though and should be fine for a hipster type, once we make it available to them.
Note that what we mean by strange in this context is ugly and crap. This intended market for this of course will see it as quirky and cool.
yet another Peg Perego baby seat. This one is a little old and maybe a little beat up but it will be inspected carefully and disposed of accordingly.
This Tough Traveller offspring rucksack seems to be all present and correct. The list of craig has historically been an excellent disposal outlet for these and hopefully that will continue. They have similar qualities to the bike seats, people think they will do so much cool outdoor stuff with their kids so buy them but never really use them. This ensures both our supply and demand.
This laminator is formerly the property of the local school system. It it slightly beat up but seems to work. We may give it some testing usage and then put it in storage for the occasional future use. It will do 8.5 x 11 paper.
This Bonntrager carbon fiber fork seems to be a new take-off type item. It is in very good condition but has been installed. It may be traded for other bike stuff or sold on ebay.
This Tag-a-long offspring bike appendage is in fine shape. We may use it or find a new owner for it. It looks pretty much unused.
