Free: Upholstery Fabric Strips (Carrier Bag Load)- W4 off Acton Ln (Chiswick W4) Expired 218d - Hi I have just taken some stuffed chairs apart as nobody wanted them here, on Ebay for 1p or anywhere. I will be taking the remains to the dump however have some bits and pieces that may be of use to someone. If nobody is interested off to the dump they go...... I took the chairs apart so that the bits I am taking to the dump fit in my mate's car. On reflection these upholstery strips (kept the seat up) may be of use to someone who needs some of these things. I have no idea what they are made from but they are very strong. In one of the photos there is a craft knife for scale Cheers, Rob

Free: 8 Faux Leather Chair Covers - for arts / crafts / upholstery (Chiswick W4) Expired 224d - Hi I have just taken some stuffed chairs apart as nobody wanted them here, on Ebay for 1p or anywhere. I will be taking the remains to the dump however have some bits and pieces that may be of use to someone. If nobody is interested off to the dump they go...... Here I have 8 Faux Leather Chair covers. They are suffering from peeling however much of them can still be salvaged and used if you have something small to reupholster like a seat cover (see picture for an example). The things are huge as they covered these things: I have put a packet of Pringles in a picture of the reverse of one of these for scale. They would suit someone who does a bit of reupholstering or some arts / crafts. Even if they are used for cutting practice that would be better than getting chucked. They will end up in landfill and take a thousand years to decompose so maybe one last hurrah is in order. Cheers, Rob

Free: Two Large Bin Bags of Foam (for packing) - W4 off Acton Lane (Chiswick W4) Gifted 240d - Hi I have just taken some stuffed chairs apart as nobody wanted them here, on Ebay for 1p or anywhere. I will be taking the remains to the dump however have some bits and pieces that may be of use to someone. If nobody is interested off to the dump they go...... Here are two large bags of foam that lined the chairs. It's only of use for someone who wants something to cushion packing (or other foamy stuff) as it is well knackered. It will end up in landfill and take a thousand years to decompose so maybe one last hurrah is in order. Cheers, Rob

I sawed off the chair legs so that the bits I am taking to the dump fit in my mate's car. On reflection they may be of use to someone who is in need of this kinda thing for woodworking or something. I have put a pringles tube next to a leg to give an idea of scale. Cheers, Rob

Free: Faux Leather Dining Room Chairs (a bit battered) (Chiswick W4) Expired 247d - Hi I am listing some faux leather dining room chairs. These were OK but over the years the seats have given way and the faux leather is wearing away (see photos). They may suit a reupholstering / fixing project as they are very sturdy and would look OK if tarted up and redone. The frame is fine but the seat support and cover are shot. From memory I paid £125 a chair, so it looks like I got well conned. I will operate a fair offer policy on these and will give preference to anyone who will take the lot in one go. Collection is W4 just off Acton Lane Cheers, Rob

Free: Damaged Small Cute Glass Pig paperweight /ornament (Acton W4) Expired 1y - One thing I seem to have acquired in my travels through life is this rather cute glass pig paperweight / ornament. Annoyingly it's been knocking around for couple of decades without so much as a scratch and it seems it has picked up a big ding in its right rump (see pictures). It'll need something sticking over it as it seems a little jagged. Or flaming with a blowtorch (whaddo I know about fixing chips in glass?). It measures approx. 9cm (snout to tail) * 6cm tall * 5cm wide and is solid glass. Collection W4 off Acton Lane.

Free: Huge Coffee Table Book - The Oprah Winfrey Show (Acton W4) Gifted 1y - The full title of the book is: The Oprah Winfrey Show: Reflections on an American Legacy and is by Deborah Davis. I received this as a present, unwrapped it and never read it,. It is pristine, weighs a ton and looks lovely on a coffee table, just not my coffee table. In fact it's large enough to be a coffee table if you perch it on some breeze blocks. Would probably break your toe if you were unfortunate enough to drop it whilst wearing trainers.
