Lawn mower. Push along (WR14 Link Top)
Gifted
1y
- This is a vintage Qualcast push along lawn mower. It works but needs attention to work well as it's a bit rusty and needs oiling. The grass box needs a better hook as it can bounce off. The instruction leaflet comes with it and explains how to maintain and set it up. It's more than 54 years old. It will likely last another 50 years. It makes a much better noise than an electric or petrol one. It gives you exercise when you use it. The wooden roller is smaller now than it was. You won't electrocute yourself with it.

Gifted

- Small Nookie bouyancy aid. It's old but stitching is fine. It supports over 5kg in water which is the basic test for effectiveness. Maximum chest size would be about 35 inches. A bouyancy aid is not the same as a lifejacket. It is not designed to keep you face up if unconcious.

Gifted
1y
- This is an old Oregon electric chain saw with spare chain oil. I can send soft copy of a manual suitable for use with it. It is 1750 Watt PWR1750CSA. Chain saws are particularly dangerous tools. I used it without problem 3 years ago. I am concerned to pass it on to someone who is appropriately competent and confident to use it.

Roof rack Thule (WR14 Link Top)
Gifted
1y
- Suitable for Ford Mondeo 4 door hatchback 93- and Ford Mondeo Wagon without roofrail. I also used it on my Ford Focus LX 2001 and it was fine. They don't have a lock. They attach to the fixing point inside the car door. The bar lengths are 120cm.The bars have slightly larger external dimensions (width and depth) than Thule's current square bar so I don't think they would be compatible with todays fittings. The booklet is included.
