Metal water containers with taps (East Hendred OX12)
Gifted
There are two metal water containers with taps. I think they might be stainless steel but I'm not sure. The lids fit very neatly and tightly. I used them to heat water for washing up while running a modest sized camp hence they are blackened on the bottom and sides from the soot from the fire. They would probably clean up if you needed.

Petrol lamps, stove and gas light (East Hendred OX12)
Gifted
There are three petrol lamps, all made my Coleman. They were all working when last used which is now a few years ago. Two of them are two-mantle lights and the other single mantle. Some of the mantles might need replacing and there are several new mantles included. The older (green) one requires a starter using meths and there is a little squeezy bottle to deliver the meths into the circular reservoir below the mantle which is fun to do. There is a CampingGaz light which runs off a gas cylinder. Lastly there is a Coleman petrol stove which needs a little bit of fixing.

Ladder roof hooks (East Hendred OX12)
Gifted
Pair of ladder roof hooks. They attach to the end of a ladder and hook over the top of the roof ridge. The wheels are to help push the ladder up the roof over the tiles, when the hook end is over the ridge, you flip the ladder over to hook onto the ridge. Please note there are no fixing bolts with these, I've lost them.

DIY wobble board former (East Hendred OX12)
Gifted
I made this former to construct a wobble board (also pictured) for the grandchildren. The idea is to laminate layers of thin ply and bend them to shape on the former. The holes are for the clamps that hold the ply in place. There are videos on Youtube which describe the technique (see link below) but I can explain in more detail to you face to face if that helps. Half the job is making the former. This worked well and I was very pleased with the outcome; so were the grandchildren! Just to be clear, I am offering the former but not the wobble board that I made using it (sorry).

Gas space heater - not working properly (East Hendred OX12)
Expired
This is a Draper PSH300, 70kW (238,80 BTUs) propane gas space heater. It runs from a propane gas cylinder (orange not blue) and the regulator at the end of the gas hose screws into the gas cylinder with a left-hand thread. It also needs mains power to drive the fan. The fan works perfectly but the flame doesn't always run properly and it makes a screaming noise (much like the fan bearing has gone but it hasn't). The supplier says that you can't get spares for it anymore so we have purchased a new one. I wonder whether if it was stripped down there might be a simple fix, maybe not. Sometimes it runs correctly for a period and then the flame reduces and the 'screaming' starts. The gas hose looks fine but good practice would dictate that it should be replaced now. We are in East Hendred.
