Worn out bulb/housing for projector (Comiston EH10)
This bulb has over 3,500 hours on it, so it's too dim to use anymore. But it comes in an interesting little metal housing. I thought it might be of interest ot a model maker/prop designer - it looks like something from a sci-fi set. Which would be a better end than just putting it in the recycling. Pound coin for scale in the photos. In Morniingside. Anyone?

White bench (kids sitting height) (Gilmerton EH17)
A used but good (one small part tends to pop out under the bench) white wooden bench is on offer. I was its first owner. It seems to be a combination of plywood and perhaps pine, it is not glossy in any case. It looks easy to be repainted to a colour of your choosing :) What I want to point out is that even though I got it for myself and it's comfortable adult size as for back support, the sitting level is rather low, so it's probably kids height as for sitting down and then getting up from it again. Probably not suitable for yourself if you are an adult with joint issues! However, if you prefer sitting close to the ground as an adult, this bench was made for you. Dimensions are as follows: Overall height 80.5 cm Sitting surface height 39.5 cm (!) Overall width 115 cm Sitting surface width 99.5 cm Overall depth 45cm Sitting surface depth: 42 cm It probably could be disassembled if needed, I'm just not sure how exactly - sorry, a very insecure DIY person here. I won't be able to help with lifting or carrying only cheer you on, so please bring a buddy with you. For collection only. I usually have time some weekday mornings and almost all afternoons of the week. Thank you very much, Lili
