Free: Miele Washing Machine - FOR MECHANICAL PARTS ONLY (Lower Weston) Expired - We have a 2019 Miele WCE320 washing machine.

The deal will be collection of the whole machine - and warning, it is VERY heavy. Let me know quickly if this is of interest as I will be booking collection from the council. I will not be able to help you, so please bring some extra muscle with you should you be interested. Collection from near the RUH - Please say WHEN in any replies, as I will be booking my collection slot shortly, it is also outside in the elements as I don't have anywhere indoors. Thank you.

Free: Spares Parts for Jump King 15x10ft Trampoline (Lower Weston) Expired - We have dismantled our Jump King oval 10ft x 15ft Trampoline. However due to one of the metal poles that make up the oval corroding through we can only offer it up for 'parts'. Specifically: * The frame is complete, but there is corrosion, in one place this has gone through and made a hole in one pole, probably others too underneath the most rusted parts. * The trampoline bed is sound, but one of the metal triangular fixings has broken, some others are corroded, but these could be replaced with substitutes. * The springs are all intact, with surface corrosion to varying degrees. * The green bumper cover that goes over the springs is intact, sun bleached but not damaged. However the clips on the straps have rusted, so an alternative fixing arrangement will need to be made. * The upright poles that hold the net (not pictured) are included, but most of the lower parts have seized into the frame, and the black foam stuff that surrounds the poles is turning into dust. * The ladder is ok, some surface corrosion to the bolts. * The safety net is not included. If you already have one of these and need to secure parts, here is your opportunity. I will be taking it all down the recycling centre as soon as I can, as I need the space, however if this is of interest and you can pick it up quickly then please get in touch. Priority to those who will take all of the parts and can pick it up the soonest. Please say WHEN you can collect in your replies please.

Free: Vintage Stereo Mixing Console (Lower Weston) Expired - This is a vintage Realistic Stereo Mixing Console 32-1210 - my father was a musician and this was one of his many gadgets. It has been re-wired in its life to convert to DC from mains - no doubt to replace a faulty power supply. It powers up, the left hand VU meter does not illuminate but the right hand one does. I have no means of testing it at all, so it is 'as seen'. It'll make a good winter project. I don't know what its capabilities are, so please do your own research via Google etc. Available for collection from near the RUH.

Free: Redland Double Roman Cowl/Vent Tile (Lower Weston) Gifted - Redland Double Roman Cowl/Vent Tile.
