Request:
a small piece of 'wood' to make a shelf (Fords Farm RG31)
I need an offcut of 'wood' - Melamine coated MDF? Veneered/ coated chipboard? (don't know what it is called) to make a shelf for my laptop (I have changed from a tower PC to a laptop and wifi keyboard. I only need a piece about 17.5 ins (44.45cm) x10.5ins (26.67cm) and all I can find online comes MUCH larger pieces! Has anyone got something suitable lying around in the garage or shed that I could repurpose please? Can't recycle the tower unit until I have a shelf! :-) Thanks.

Plastic jewel cases for CD or DVD [empty] (Henley-on-Thames RG9)
Clear plastic front, black or red plastic inner these mostly held software discs in the past, but are fine for music discs or DVDs too. Good for replacing any damaged cases in your CD collection - take out the cover artwork from the original and slip it into one of these. Some are slightly scuffed, a small number might have a scratch or two, but all are intact with working hinges etc. Mostly single disc holders but a few double or multi-disc too (please say if you want any of these especially). I've got between 40 and 50 of these so propose to give them in stacks of 10.

DVD library cases (empty) (Henley-on-Thames RG9)
Mostly black plastic, a few clear plastic, these are a mixture of single cases and some that hold 2, 3 or even 4 discs. Mainly these are old software disc cases - I used to work in IT hence having so many! If more than one person replies I'll split into two x 10 cases for the first two people. Otherwise it's a stack of 20.
