Free: Very small mini fridge (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Promised Very small micro-mini fridge - can run off 110v AC or 12V DC. Can both cool and heat items, but is just barely the size of a six-pack of beer. These are sold to be used for medications, skin care products, or simply to keep items cold or hot. I bought it to keep sourdough starter at a uniform low temperature, but the temperature wasn't stable enough for that purpose. Description here:

Free: Polk RT16 tower speakers (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Gifted Pair of Polk tower speakers in very nice condition. Vinyl is lifting slightly on top of one, should be easy to re-glue. Otherwise like new. Will require at least one strong person to carry to your car.

Free: Small Windows Tablet (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Gifted Ematic brand 8" Windows tablet (running windows 8). Quad core processor. This is a fairly cheap Windows tablet - I bought it for a specific control application and it didn't work terribly well for that. It has wifi, bluetooth, etc and will run most Windows applications. It seems to hold a charge fairly well - but don't expect much. I'm not really sure what it's good for, but if you have a particular application for which this will work... it's yours. Might be good as a standalone weather display, or a photo album display unit - or something. In its original box.

Free: Washer and drier (Portola Valley) Gifted Speed Queen "Commercial Heavy Duty" Washer and electric drier. These were left by a recent tenant who couldn't move them, but says they're very good commercial machines which run well (they were in use until a few weeks ago). Currently located in Portola Valley, and you'll need to bring a truck and be able to move the machines yourself.

Request: Computer Monitor, Keyboard (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Received I'm setting up a little project using a "Raspberry Pi" micro computer, and it would be easier with a dedicated monitor and keyboard. The monitor will need to have an HDMI port. If you've got either one hiding somewhere I'd love to take it off your hands.

239d

Free: Ryobi 18v saw (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Gifted Offered to three people, none of whom ever responded again! - so, it's available. PLEASE do not request this item if you don't intend to come over and pick it up! Older 6 1/2" circular saw, uses the same batteries as the newer 18v Ryobi tools. Comes with a blade, but no batteries or charger. If you have any 18V Ryobi tools this will work fine with the same battery system. It's a bit smaller than the newer Ryobi saws, but also lighter, so it's quite handy to use.

Free: Deck Screws (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Gifted 7 lbs of 3 inch #8 Philips Bugle head Dacrotized deck screws (approx 600 screws) Have been sitting on a shelf for years, so aren't bright and shiny, but they should still retain the majority of the Aluminum/Zinc coating which makes these such good deck screws.

363d

Free: Makita battery drills (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Gifted Model 6093 and 6095 Makita 9.6V drills. These were, for years, the premier battery drill on the market. I used the 6093 to build a house - the other (6095) is unused. Two batteries - which might work (these things last forever) - but new NiMH versions of the 9.6V batteries are still available. Cases for both drills, and one fast charger. Also (somewhere) I have a matching small circular saw, generally used for cutting sheetrock in place.

Free: Various silver plate items (Emerald Hills, near cross.) Gifted Various silver plate items - serving trays, urn, chafing dish, tea service, a candle snuffer, etc. Some need only polish, others would need to be replated to be restored to original condition. All are either brass or copper and could be recycled as such, though some are nicer pieces. All are probably late 1800's or early 1900's. The tea service has bakelite handles.
