Pine desk/dressing table (Crookes S10)
Expired
56d
- Solid wood, in good condition apart from marks on the top. 143cm W x 43cm D x 68cm H. Might be an upcycling project or perhaps to reuse the wood. This is in the attic, and I suspect it was assembled up here. As far as I can see, it could be dismantled, which I think would be necessary to get it downstairs. I’ve included a photo of the bolts/screws under the top. I’d be very grateful for someone willing to do this, as I’m not sure I have the right tools or competence!

Tall bookcase (Crookes S10)
Gifted
83d
- Nice solid bookcase, approx H200cm x W80cm x D30cm (solid except for flimsy back, which needs nailing back in place). However there’s a catch - it’s upstairs, and when it was taken up there it had to be dismantled as it’s about 5cm higher than the door at the bottom of the stairs (terraced house). So if you’re a spatial genius and can find a way of manoeuvering it through, or are willing to dismantle it - it’s yours!

Expired

- I’ve just dismantled a slightly rickety old bookcase, and the MDF/chipboard (I don’t know the difference!) is now destined for the tip, but thought I’d see if anyone could use it.
