A random little Samsung camera. The battery (visible in picture) was bulging slightly and the camera only powered up for a second or two. New battery acquired and installed and it works fine.
Not sure of the quality yet on the pics but the tiny form factor is really nice.
A nice looking Sony tape deck. Both the belts on it were turned into a sticky black goo in a way that somewhat defies intuitive understanding of materials. New belts acquired and installed, a drop of sewing machine oil on the capstan motor bearings and it is good to go.
Installing the belts was kind of tricky and a little daunting first time through. Now we have done it once it seems much more approachable should we have to do it to another such device.
A Yamaha AX-V375 receiver unit. Everything works fine. Somebody in my town just ditched their stack of black boxes under the TV in favor of a roku stick or some such.
A small but relatively tall All-Clad pot. Quite nice and handy. Probably used very little if ever by the previous owner.
A nice little Stanley Bradawl in good condition. Not sure if we need it but we are not going to leave that lying around to be scrapped.
A random Sony amplifier clearly built in the age of complicated video stacks, having endless HDMI inputs and surround sound and all kinds of nonsense. Just playing a CD through this thing is kind of hard work.
This era is over in the sense that we have changed the experience by softwarizing it all into streaming apps and such, rather than havingh a pile of 17 inch wide black boxes.
We are not fans of this type of device, but we wanted an amplifier so we grabbed this one.
A random faux vintage side table. It was missing one of the bolts from the lower shelf, but we can one in stock we cut down to fit. Ready to go and be faux vintage in somebody's abode.
Another cluster of pretty random lamps, rescued and tested. Not as ugly some batches we have found in the past.
A wooden dining table with a few dings but otherwise in nice usable condition. We gave it a polish and it is ready to be used by somebody who currently does not have such an item.
Some dining chairs with a slightly weird metal and wood construction but in perfectly usable condition.
An All-Clad stauinless steel double boiler. Of course we have the pot that fits underneath this so we could just keep this and use it. Not sure if we have need for it though.
A pair of random stools that seem to be quite usable. Will be made available to some people who have the need for them.
An assortment of lamps. All tested and working and ready to be supplied to places that need light.
An Eley portable hose reel in good condition. It is not clear it has even really been used, but whatever.
Available to friends.
A random Pentax K1000 camera found in the scrap metal. This will be sent into the school with a student to form the bases of a "found camera" media project.
Yet another Dyson V7 vacuum. This one has weird stickers on it, almost looks like a former demo model or something. It works fine and the battery even seems in good condition. There is piece of tape on the back, we may have to investigate that.
