Three red candles. Unfortunately not four candles.

2020-10-17 Therm-a-rest

A random therm-a-rest sleeping mat. Comes with the bag as you can see. It is not the most convenient to use but we will test it out and see if we want to keep it.

2020-10-17 Storage Bin

A floppy woven storage bin, just what we needed having cleaned out some closets and reorganized somewhat.

2020-10-13 Mountain Bike Tires

Two random mountain bike tires plucked from the garbage of one of the local bike shops. They will be great for bike that comes to us at some undetermined time in the future in need of tires.

2020-10-10 Micro Scooter

One of those Swiss Micro scooter thingies. It had nasty hairballs around the axles slowing the wheels down, they were removed and the bearings lubricated. It also had on broken grip, we got a new pair for it.

2020-10-09 Dell Optiplex 380

A random Dell Optiplex 380 PC, no HD but functional otherwise as demonstrated by the knoppix running on it in the picture. We grabbed this because there seems to be demand for reasonable machines like this.

2020-10-06 Giant Boulder

A Giant Boulder mountain bike missing the back wheel, as with so many bikes these days.

We had a wheel in stock that came from the trash a while ago, we trued it up. The tire and cluster were from used parts stock also, as was the rimtape. The tube was new, courtesy alibaba bulk order.

2020-10-06 Dell Optiplex Machines

A pile of Dell Optiplex PC machines. We took home five but there were a couple more left behind. Only one had any storage media in it, a nice SSD. This machine spent time in a law firm and had lots of interesting but boring documents on the drive. The specs are Quad i5 3.2Ghz with 4G RAM, so usable machines.

We may scrap one or two and consolidate the memory into the rest. As you see one was missing an optical drive.

2020-10-03 Schwinn Voyageur

This Schwinn Voyageur is a weird looking bike. It was found scattered across the scrap metal pile, missing the skewers, seat and seat post. It is now ridable, and a new 26.8mm seat post is in the mail. Lots of tuneup work on it left to do, cables and housings etc, but that is all little details once we have got to this stage.

Once cleaned up it will much more shiny and somebody will want it.

This Bob Revolution single jogger is in really nice shape. It was put out in the trash in a nearby town and picked up by a friend on the spot for other important business.
