Free: Wire pet crate - folding (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park) Promised This is older and a bit rusty but it is serviceable as a spare or if you need to keep a pet quiet after surgery. Measures just under 30 x 30 inches height and length and the door ends are 20 inches wide. It folds flat for storage or transport. It could be spruced up with some spray paint and a blanket become a personal space for your small dog or cat to call their own. Maybe the structure for an exterior pet shelter with some cover for shade?

Free: Wood frame casement window operates (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park) Expired The window is from cottage and would work well in a 3 season dwelling or shed or playhouse or greenhouse. 47 inches wide and 30 inches high framed in cedar. The window is not exactly as shown but the pictures show the style. I can grab another picture if anyone interested. The window is one fixed pane and one casement that opens (not the third pane shown in picture) there is a screen and extra panes that work as storm windows. It was in a washroom so the primary pane of glass is frosted while the storms are clear. If interested I can transport it into Ottawa for pick up within the week.

Free: LAzy Susan components (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park) Gifted I had to dismantle this lazy susan from a corner cupboard, I thought these might be of use to somebody else for another or the same purpose. The components that are intact are a round wood tray 31" in diameter and one about 20" in diameter. There is also the pole to mount on and the things to hold each tray to the pole. I have the middle sized wood tray shelf but it has a chunk removed from it. You will also need some new screws as the ones removed were slotted and got lost in the shuffle. Not an odd size easy to replace.

Free: Roofing Ridge Vents metal (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park) Gifted 3 Metal ridge vents each 10 feet long. Not pretty but very functional. I have replaced the roof shingles and one of the 4 ridge vents needed replacing as well. We could not find ridge vents that matched as they were out of stock everywhere. So we ended up replacing all the ridge vents with a different type made of plastic then covered with shingles. Not as robust. So I have 3 useable metal roof vents to cover a 30 foot ridge. The picture shows the underside aluminum silver and the upper side painted dark brown and a bit scratched. I figured if anyone else doing roofing found this type of ridge vent out of stock they might like these.

Stands about 6.5 feet high and 30 inches wide and there are removable shelves 5 or 6 with adjustable pegs to customize the unit. I just added some photos taken in storage unit hence the clutter.

Free: Cedar framed window with casementss (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park) Gifted Perfect for a cabin or shed that you are planning. 3 paned window in cedar frame removed from a seasonal home fits opening 69 inches wide by 35 1/2 inches high with some wiggle room for insulation etc. The window has one fixed centre pane and 2 casements and all mounting hardware as well as screens for opening windows. the first picture shows it installed and the other two show it removed and all component parts. The original window had single panes of glass but was retrofitted to add additional panes that fit within frames. The casement windows have been removed for ease of moving as seen in picture 3 but everything goes back together and all mounting hardware + screens included. If interested I can get very precise measurements for each of the panes. the two casements could be installed in a frame you build and used separately for instance. The window(s) located in Val des Mont but can be transported to Ottawa for pick up or to a mutually convenient middle point. I will also have a similar two paned windows with single casement opening that measure 46 1/2 inches wide by 35 1/2 inches high. and 46 inches by 30 inches. If another size suits your needs. These are not ideal for winter use but they have been doing the job - ideal for 3 season use.

Free: Large wingback chair (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park) Gifted This green upholstered chair is in pretty good shape except for one corner where apparently a cat chewed it. You can see in the photos. A smoke free home but there was a cat at some point clearly. Otherwise the cover is in great shape and not stained. There is a removable seat cushion. The chair is nice and high and it is wide. If you are under 5' 4" you will enjoy a cushion behind you so your feet hit the floor or curl up in it. The wings are very helpful if you doze off. Porch pick up can be arranged. It fits in a hatchback.

Free: Crab Apples (Manor Park - Rockcliffe Park) Gifted My fruit tree blew over loaded with fruit so lots for the picking and pick up. I have removed branches with fruit from the ground and so much easier to pick at waist height with no ladder. These are 1" and 2" fruit, not the little teeny ones, so possible to make something with them by way of preserves. If interested let me know and I can give you details where to pick up a load or pick up some branches to pick your own at home ! Bring your own continer/bag if possible.
