A larger sized deltawing scooter-ish device than we have had so far. Interesting. Presumably the offspring will test it out and pass judgement.
Dell Studio XPS 6 core machine with 12G RAM. No storage included, but somebody will want this for parts or building up.
A pair of random Bonntrager 700C road bike tires. They are not very worn, probably take-off for an upgrade or some such. Whatever, good to have replacemtns in our parts portfolio.
A random Ryobi scroll saw with a fair amount of dust and crud on it. This is not the first we have found, though we may keep this one for a while.
A 700C bike wheel, seems all straight and good to ride, with a matching tire and also a random mountain bike tire. Will be stored aways for use as spares.
This random Trek bike frame was in the garbage behind a bike shop. We would suspect there was something wrong with but so far we cannot see any cracks or damaged threads or whatever.
A random Praxis Works crankset. The teeth are a little worn and I have no idea if there is anything really wrong with it, but it will go in the parts bin or be sold.
A swivel stool with backrest. Quite vintage and apparently property of the US Navy. We will use this at our kitchen bar.
Here is the little identifier plate on the back.
This is a nice little power strip. It has a reasonably long cable on it with a right angled plug, super handy. It may be pressed into service for our small fleets of pi devices on the server shelf.
Update: Now in use for a small pi server farm.
A cast iron muffin tray thingy, in pretty nice shape. The pic shows it after a quick smoke with some canola oil on it to get it nice and coated.
A random Schwinn beach cruiser bike. Some rust here and there but after air in the tyres is rideable, such that one ever actually rides a beach cruiser.
700C rear wheels, Canonndale hub, small ding in the rim, otherwise straight It is probably salvagable/usable.
A Spalding Blade bike that claims to be an ATB, woohoo, but note it does so from the very distant past. No matter, cleaned up, rides fine seeking new home.
This is a small white enamelled cast iron pot from Le Creuset. We looked but were not able to see the lid nearby, shame. It is more or less unused.
An enamelled cast iron pot marked only with the word "France" underneath. It is most probably new and unused, there was the trace of a price sticker on it on one side. This is probably trying to be like a Le Creuset.
This Felt Cafe 24 bike was tossed into a scrap metal facility and then mangled a litte by a bucket loader or some such. It got a little tangled with other junk. We managed to extract it and once home we put replaced the front wheel, bars, stem, seat post and seat from spares to get it back straight enough to ride.
It came out pretty nice considering the situation it was in.
This random Samsung flatscreen has bad backlights on one half. It is probably fixable and we may look into that. Or we may just give it away to somebody whose time/money tradeoff is different to ours.
A random pile of stainless steel switch surrounds of various types. Somebody may have a use for these.
