Great empty boxes (Dimond/Fruitvale)
Let me know when you would like to pick these up in your response. I love a great box! So many possible uses and potential! I now have too many. The biggest in the collection (the one on the right in the back) is 17x9x6 and the smallest is 4x4x2, to offer perspective. Note there are two of the smaller ones with the green interior. Looking for someone to take all of them as the first preference but the goal is to get them to folks who would use them, so open to other configurations of need.

Network cabling & keystones (castro valley)
Hello! For a project to distract from my unemployment/job hunting woes, I started wiring up our house like we wanted with a bit of future proofing. Unfortunately I ran out of CAT6 and CAT7 cabling and the CAT5 keystones to finish what we started. I would rather not finish the job with CAT5 (that seems stupid), and this disabled veteran would rather not have to shimmy around in the crawlspace & attic multiple times for the same drop. That being said, I am running out of CAT5 keystones being used for phone and the older devices. Yes, I know CAT7 is not a real standard but put CAT6 terminations on there and it works fine for home use. Ask me how I know… :) In case you have a couple of hundred feet to finish the 7 drops I had planned, and some keystones to terminate the lines the parts would be put to good use. TIA!

Iron Filings (Palo Alto, near Cal Ave)
I have half a gallon of iron filings that I bought for fun. Iron filings is the black, coarse "powder" that is used at children's museums for exhibits with big magnets. Iron filings and magnets make for a lot of fun. The filings can stain clothing and carpet so if you want to set up a play/tactile experience using them, you will want to do so outside or in an area without carpeting. I would keep them, but I am moving and can't take anything that isn't absolutely necessary/

C1353AA rocker switch (castro valley)
I’m on the hunt for a C1353AA rocker switch – repairing a lighting device that was gifted to me and the rocker switch died. Sadly, the spare rocker I have will not fit into the device, the slot/opening is specific to the height and width of the C1353AA rocker which is .75” wide by 1” tall. Anyone have a spare by chance, or an alternative that would fit?
