2006-11-05 Water Feeder

Attached to the copper tubing from yesterday we dicovered a water feeder. As luck would have it this is the same model that we have. Ours has had a leaking problem for a long time and even though this one is pretty beat up we may be able to make one good one out of the two. Mmmmm, hybrid devices.

2006-11-05 Books

A nice selection of books with enough variety to please everybody. Pic soon.

 

2006-11-04 Weed Whacker

A Homelite Echo weed whacker. It looked so complete and spiffy that we took it home. After adding fuel and giving it a few cranks it started and ran and whacked weeds. Reason for discard seems to have been that it ran out of fuel. Cool. Pic shows it posed in the neighbour's driveway....

2006-11-04 Gateway P3

Random Gateway Pentium 3. Again not worth our time to fix up but worth a quick look at the bits. Boring, but here is the summary:

2006-11-04 Dell P3

A run of the mill Dell Pentium 3 PC which did not seem to want to boot. Seems in OK shape though, it will be passed on to somebody who has more time for machines this old. First though, a quick look at the HD reveals a happy family lifestyle. Some salient points:

2006-11-04 Bin

A nice galvanized storage bin which we will use to store our accumulating pile of scrap copper, of which today there was a fair haul. Somebody tossed their entire furnace plus lots of pipes and peripherals.

2006-10-20 Switches

Two 100baseT switches, mildly antiquated by the standards of their industry, but seemingly OK, one 8 port and one 5 port. Thes will be tested and made available for anybody who wants them. Rob? Charlie? Also present were some junky hubs and a very old laptop, left that other stuff.

ethernet switches

Update: both tested out OK, each has power supply etc. Get them while they are hot.

 

2006-09-25 Calphalon

One Calphalon Contemporary omlete pan like this. These are the middle of the range versions and not nearly as nice as the "commercial" or "one" range. This one has a loose handle and a lifetime warrantly so we will find something to do with it.....

2006-09-16 Puters

A nice selection of computing hardware. First an e-machine Celeron 2.0Ghz PC, 256M ram but no HD. Also an e-machines Athlon 2400, same source as previous, again no HD but has memory etc. Pic shows the Athlon but the Celeron looks almost exactly the same:

Next a Dell Pentium 4, complete with everything. Watch this space to see how much completness there is in the data on the 40G HD. I think this is identical to a prior Dell Pentium 4 we had.

2006-09-16 Peripherals

A fancy netgear NAT box and vpn thingy, plus a netgear 802.11g access point and NAT box. Both untested but so far they look in fine shape. One or both may get deployed as they both have advantages over their equivalents that we are currently using.
