Inlet hose for washing machine or dishwasher. (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
Our new dishwasher needed an extra long hose, so this standard length one is surplus to requirements. It is 1.5 meters long, and has never been used.

Four scallop shells, usable as serving dishes.

Rollers and belt from a dismantled machine (Fareham PO15)
Withdrawn
These parts came from a machine which moved the belt round the rollers. The moving part of each roller is about 55mm tall, and spins very freely. Each one is attached to a mount about 40mm long. Surely there must be some inventor out there who can re-purpose them. They are beautifully made and it would be a shame to dump them.

Free:
Lever arch files. A4 size (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
9 lever arch files. Red. They are a bit dusty, but some of them have never been used.

Free:
5 unused visors. (Fareham PO15)
Withdrawn
5 visors left over from the pandemic, still sealed up. I don't think they were ever much use for preventing infection, but they might be handy if you're doing a messy job.

Boxes for jewelry and a watch (Fareham PO15)
Withdrawn
Three small boxes that once held brooches or cuff links, and a larger box that once held an Omega watch. All in nice condition.

Wooden tool carrier. (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
50cm x 20cm. Originally a tool box, but could be repurposed to hold toys, or anything else...... Quite shabby but sound and usable.
9d
Free:
Ideal Standard basin filler tap. Used. (Fareham PO15)
Withdrawn
Fits in a single hole basin. The taps are quarter-turn. Includes mechanism for opening and closing the drain plug. Note that this is a basin filler, not a mixer - the hot and cold come out in separate streams.

Free:
Wine glasses (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
36 wine glasses, various sizes and designs.

Free:
Elfa wire basket storage system. (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
Elfa storage system. Metal frame with wire baskets that slide out like drawers. Size is about 55cm square, 145cm tall. The photo makes it look as though it is bent, but that's just the angle it was taken from. It's quite square, and sound, but a bit rusty in places. Not smart enough to live indoors, but could still be useful in a shed. It all dismantles for transport and will fit in any car.

Scalextric (Fareham PO15)
Withdrawn

Free:
Tall folding stool (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
Folding stool. Red metal frame. White plastic seat. Seat is 64cm from the ground. No longer smart enough for the living room, but might be OK for the workshop.

Gifted
Earthenware flowerpots.

Free:
Romanian bowls and wooden mug (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
Souvenirs from artisans I met in Romania about 20 years ago. The bowls are very simple and certainly not dishwasher proof. The wooden mug was made by a barrel-maker, using the same principles, and is waterproof.

Free:
Electronic photo frame/screen (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
Screen for displaying photos. It has various inputs for different types of memory card. There is a mains power unit and a remote. I am told that it works, but I haven't tested it. I have plugged it in and it lights up, so very probably OK. Please say when you can collect.

Logs for your wood burner - for you to cut. (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
Storm Bert has given us this fallen hawthorn tree. Are there any freeglers who would like to come round with a chainsaw and cut themselves some logs? You are welcome to take whatever is useful and leave the small twiggy bits for me to dispose of. You can come and look at it first before committing yourself.

Free:
Wickes variable speed jig saw. (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
The motor runs OK and the speed control works. There is a lever to adjust the position of the blade but it needs to be re-fitted. The pieces are in the bag taped to the handle.

Salton Hotray. 72cm long. Food warmer. (Fareham PO15)
Expired
Salton electric hot tray. 72cm x 22 cm. Plugs into the mains, and keeps dishes warm. This has been in the garage, unused, for about 25 years. I expect it still works, but it has lost its electric lead, so I can't test it. Pic 2 shows where the mains lead plugs in. It would be very similar to the "kettle" leads used for computers, but there is an extra little tab which prevents an ordinary kettle lead from going in. You could probably modify a computer lead to make it work.

Ekco Thermotube electric heater (Fareham PO15)
Gifted
This heater was found in a garage, still in its original wrapping. It's about 45 cm long. I haven't tested it, so I can't say whether it works, but it has clearly never been used. I believe that heaters like this were intended for preventing damp in electrical equipment cupboards. Let's try and save it from the dump.

Tripod, ex music stand. (Fareham PO15)
Expired
This was a music stand, but the part that holds the music got broken. Does anyone want to re-purpose the tripod, or is it going to be dumped?
