A Raleigh Technium hybrid bike in somewhat neglected condition. It should clean up to be a good ridable machine but it might not ever excell in the shiny cosmestics department.
A random broad-ish putty knife type implement. It was found "in a puddle". Not sure if we will use this but it could come in handy. I like the more flexible type.
This random Lenovo G500 laptop had a completely dead hard drive in it. Not detected by Knoppix or anything. That seems like a pretty obvious reason for discard. No problem, we tossed in an old SSD from spares and put Windows 7 on it. It probably runs better now than it has ever done. Now going through a significant pile of patches.
Probably available to anybody who needs it. Including people made known to use by the list of craig.
This is clearly the other wiper from the pair, found by some enterprising young adventurers on a different outing. It was also in the box but now is not, as you can see.
A Lennox hole saw with arbor and a nice light application of rust. The hole saw is shown after cleanup and the arbor untouched.
This arbor is a shitty cheapo model with no engagement dogs, so we will toss it. But the hole saw has better teeth than the existing model we have of exactly this size, so that is good.
A random Rain-X brand windscreen wiper, new in the package. No idea if this fits any car we have access to, but we know somebody who has access to lots more cars.
Not sure where we got this thing, castoff or discard of some kind. It is a Lenovo ThinkPad Helix tablet laptop hybrid thingy. Anyway, in order to test it we grabbed a new power supply on ebay and booted it up. Sort of works OK, but it is hard to know if something that run Windows 8 is working or not.
It is branded ThinkPad and UltraBook and all sorts of stuff. Very confusing.
A random Henckels steak knife. Weirdly it was found in a river, but right by a garbage dump. Difficult to know how it ended up there but it was salvaged and cleaned up and has already been used to consume multiple dinners.
A random brand new piece of 2x4 lumber. We often need one or two of these so having a nice straight one in stock is good.
New in the box and unused Toyota receiver setup. We may have a friend who may need this but if not then off to the list of craig to find a new owner.
