Free: 1970s ANGLEPOISE LAMP: NEEDS REPAIR (Elworth CW11) Gifted - We've had this lamp in our loft for the last 20 years.

Free: old camp bed (Elworth CW11) Gifted - This old canvas camp bed is in very good condition despite the fact that it's spent most of the last 30+ years in our loft. The material is sound. There's a tiny bit of rust on the steel tube ends that could easily be cleaned. It was surprisingly comfortable when I last slept on it many years ago though I was a young man then. It's straightforward to assemble though you do need some upper body strength to manipulate the legs into the holes on the base of the tubes. Unfortunately, I lack this strength now hence the incomplete photo. The second picture shows the underneath of the bed and you can hopefully see how it fits together. Collection from Elworth, Sandbach, CW11.

Free: workmate (Elworth CW11) Gifted - This Black & Decker Workmate is over 30 years old and has been in the back of my garage for the last 10. Gradually having a clearout before moving. It's folding mechanism and the tightening handles are fine. It's quite rusty though fairly superficial and would be fine after a clean up and repaint. The wooden top (conti board?) is broken in a few places but could probably be replaced by someone handy. The original plastic retaining inserts that gripped whatever is being worked on are missing but I'm sure could be easily replaced. Collection from Elworth, Sandbach, CW11.

Free: aluminium ladders: 2 piece (Elworth CW11) Gifted - These 2 piece ladders have been hanging in a friend's garage for many years and she has asked me to find them a new home or dispose of. Unfortunately they seem to be seized up or stuck in some was which I've been unable to shift. I'm sure someone with more patience and skill than me could sort them out. They're designed to be used in different arrangements including on stairs. About 6' tall in single use and 10' in full extension. Can be collected from Elworth, Sandbach, CW11.
