This small Miele, an Antares model, was tossed into the scrap metal and miraculously still had the cable. It does not work when plugged in but is still a high value item for fixing or parts.
A random little Dell monitor, handy for using with smaller machines like fruity Pi devices.
Pic shows it being used to test an Ubuntu machine running XP in VirtualBox.
This strange cast iron wok shaped pot has a lid but seems to be missing a handle. Strange indeed. It looks like it is intended for use on a fire.
A pretty big and fancy Delta Scroll Saw. It works OK but has a few little pieces missing or dinged up. Not sure if we will rehabilitate as we have no real need for this and it may be hard to get parts for it. It's fate is unknown at the time of writing.
This Viking range has sealed burners and gas oven. These are maybe 15k BTU each burner. It may have been converted to LPG or some such. It has sat for while but according to the people who dropped it off worked when decommissioned. Evidence of mouse nesting is apparent.
Despite the potential issues this range is totally worth cleaning up for somebody who has time, know-how, the desire for a solid range and the lack of 4k USD. Should you fit these criteria we can help with the know-how piece. We could also help in creating a lack of 4k USD dollars for you, but that might not be productive.
This mixer seem all well and good at first inspection but turned out to have live angry pixies moving around in ways not intended. It popped a breaker when we plugged it in. Turns out it was just cable wear from repeated coiling and uncoiling, which was easily fixed.
A friend found this BOB double jogger at the side of the road. It was missing all three wheels and has a few dings but that is not going to stop our rehabilitation efforts. As you can see it already has new wheels (from spares) and looks pretty nice.
This random turkey fryer seems to have been used approximately once. It did not come with the gas ring but that is OK. We grabbed this as requested by a friend.
A random Macbook A1278, missing HD and battery. We have a friend who knows how to reuse this so it will be set aside for him.
Two offspring moving devices from Baby Jogger, a company that seem increasingly misnamed as they certainly make far more than just joggers. First a City Mini, needs a clean, otherwise very nice and functional.
Also a classic jogger, we have seen lots if these over the years. This one suffered from incorrect initial customer assembly we think, the brake had clearly never worked or been used. Not that the stroller itself had seen much use.
Trek 720 Multitrack hybrid, clearly it has been used but possibly abused a little. Rear tire was badly worn (classic crappy rear braking suspected) and the headset was loose, twist grip shifters both cracked. In our opinion, none of this was a genuine reason for discard as it was easy to put on a new tire, tighten the headset and replace the shifters with a pair from used spares.
This is now a really nice bike, great to ride. Already rehomed with a new friend.
