This Trek Mountain Lion is a random BMX sized bike that is trying to be more like a mountain bike. Whatever, a useful thing if you want your smallish offspring to learn how to ride with gears.
This Raleigh Talus has a sad story behind it. It is almost new, and you might naively think the reason for discard is the seat being at the wrong angle. But no, the drive side crank has the pedal threads stripped out. This means that the clueless owners probably did not realise that the pedals are one left hand thread and one right hand thread. It might even be the case that this was from first assembly of a flat packed bike.
We have spare cranks and pedals so whatever happens this will be fixed up and used.
This cymbal stand is missing some stuff from the top, and we are not sure if it is useful to anybodym but the mechanism works fine. We do know multiple people who use drum equipment.
A random hand saw, no name on it, not really any apparent use.
The most likely use for this is in teaching offspring to properly value the power tools we have now.
Some pretty nice Fiskars garden shears. They have a some force multiplier action and are in good shape with some light use on them. They will be cleaned and oiled for further use in our garden.
A random usable Dell Optiplex dsktop PC, original setup here, could come in handy for somebody in these times increased virtual contact.
No HD inside, so people are wising up on the data they discard, but we will put one in should we need to get it running. Tested on knoppix for now.
A random little folding stool, looks like it belongs to a drum kit or some such. Somebody might want it, but we do not.
A random Bose SoundLink Revolve Bluetooth® speaker. It is missing the little docking base, but we can charge it with USB and it works fine.
A Graco FastAction Fold Duo stroller, what a mess of a name. It is in OK shape, has the same grab fold as the nice babyjogger models. After a clean we will try and find a new owner for it.
A random Bonntrager 700C tyre, tossed out by the local bike shop. Part worn, but that means part unworn also, will be good for fixing up a discarded bike at some point in the future.
