odd project/arts & crafts materials (Davis/Teele Square area)
Gifted
class project? parts for a stage set? some other creative endeavor? Seems worth asking before tossing/recycling. (1) about 45 very strong, heavy duty tubes: 12" long, a bit over 2 5/8" outside diameter, and 2 1/4" inside diameter. I'm a lightweight but I can stand on one without deforming it. And I imagine it's even stronger holding weight in an upright position. (2) about 25 cores from rolls of packing tape: just over 3 1/4" diameter and 1 7/8" high. (3) bag of white plastic end-caps for 4" diameter tubes. These do NOT fit (1) tubes, they are larger. (4) box of card-stock paper strips. This is a thick paper, each strip is about 1 3/8" x 11". There are a lot of them -- see photo. ================= Let me know what item(s) you'd like and what day you want to pick up, and I'll email my address (near Teele Square in Somerville) and put them on the porch for you.

Stereo speakers -- ONLY ONE WORKING (Davis/Teele Square area)
Gifted
Hooked 'em up to my receiver and one worked fine and the other ... nothing. Don't know if it can be repaired, perhaps you can figure it out. I don't see any obvious damage to the speaker cones. Each speaker is approx 15 x 8 x 10.5 inches, 8 ohms, 120 watts, see photo with specs for more info. These are high quality speakers, unfortunately only one of them is currently working. Let me know what day you'd like to pickup, and approximate time (morning, afternoon, evening). I'll email with the address (between Davis/Teele Squares Somerville) and put on the porch for pickup.

large galoshes waterproof overshoes (Davis/Teele Square area)
Gifted
These galoshes will probably work well for a men's size 10 or larger shoe (see photos), but not as well for bulky sneakers. They're sort of workable for my size 9 shoes but really are too loose for regular use. If they're the right size for you they'll give you practical waterproofing. Could use a bit of cleaning. Let me know what day you'd like to pickup, and approximate time (morning, afternoon, evening). I'll email with the address (between Davis/Teele Squares Somerville) and put on the porch for pickup.

sturdy table porch pickup, 2 halves (Davis/Teele Square area)

call blockers for landline phone (Davis/Teele Square area)

Both display caller phone number and have blocking features. They do *not* display the name of the caller if available, just the number.
