Grilling tray (Old Ottawa south) 30 cm by 30 cm on top, 23 cm by 23 cm on the bottom. Roughly 5.5 cm deep. Steel. Has some rust, so it would need to be scrubbed with steel wool or something

Small patio umbrella/parasol (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Suitable for placement in the centre hole of a 4-seat table. Has a crank to open/close the umbrella, as well as a pivot point to tilt the top of the umbrella (a little bit) to adjust to the sun's angle. Two ribs are broken: I believe they would be easily fixed by sticking in dowels to reinforce the hollow ribs, however before I got around to this repair, I was offered another umbrella for free, so I'm passing on the project! Does not include a base, but this is also easily DIYed.

Wheelbarrow (Old Ottawa south) Gifted A medium-sized metal wheelbarrow that still works well to cart items other than dirt. It's rusty, and two of the spots where the bucket attaches to the frame are rusted through, so it can wiggle a bit. But it holds together and could maybe be patched, or if you need to move some dirt or sand, maybe you could just tape over the small holes before filling it.

Wooden garden arch (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Fairly sturdy and stands unsupported with the small metal stakes attached to two of the legs, but would need to be attached to some good stakes to hold up in the wind with any weight on it. Decorative: would not be suitable for pull-ups. Can be dismantled with a Philips screwdriver. Serious offers only, please. 200 cm tall x 153 cm wide x 53 cm deep

Thermometer and humidity gauge (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Works indoors and outdoors. Mounts on a screw head (not included). Purchased new from Canadian Tire weeks ago. Seems to work as intended, however the mercury is not super visible from any angle other than straight on, so this was not applicable for my use case.

Hand-cranked hose storage (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Works well over all, however I would suggest replacing the small black connector hose that attaches to the faucet, as it's a bit worn and can drip Sufficient for a 25' hose. Perhaps more, but not too much more.

Functional BBQ on curb (121 Fentiman Avenue) Gifted This BBQ works, but needs some attention. Specifically, it needs new grates and a serious cleaning. It has a functional rotisserie, and the four bottom burners work well, but the rear rotisserie burner needs a cleaning and should work. Even the ignition works well (ignites each burner separately). No propane tank included On curb at 121 Fentiman Ave. I'll take down this post as soon as the BBQ is collected.

Down/feather Sleeping bag (Old Ottawa south) Gifted 30" x 78" Received from a neighbour in good condition, but I haven't used it, because it's dry clean only, and I'm never going to get around to dry cleaning a sleeping bag. In short - a nice bag that does not fit my lifestyle.

Pottery-making set (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Has a bunch of tools, including a spinning wheel (which I haven't had the chance to test since we received this from a neighbour but assume works). The clay has been used, so you'd need to find some to use the set.

Reusable diaper wraps and swimsuit (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Six polyester waterproof exterior wraps with gussets for use with cotton reusable diapers. They're size 2, for babies 9-36 months - you can adjust the size with the array of buttons on the front - see the Thirties website for more details. There are two rubber Snappies for holding the ends of the cloth trifold diapers together under the wrap. Not strictly necessary, but they make it easier to put on the wraps. We used these for both of our kiddos along with a cloth diaper service available in Ottawa that picked up the dirty ones and supplied us with new new clean ones each week. Both boys successfully potty trained before 25 months. There's also an infant sized swim diaper.

Play cube for toddlers (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Has an abacus, a slidey knob track thing, apparently a mini glockenspiel (but I don't think they actually make notes), and a whiteboard, as well as one of those mini dioramas with beads that slide along metal wires on the top. The top piece can be turned upside down and fit inside the box for storage. Roughly one cubic foot in size.

Steel kettle (Old Ottawa south) Gifted Actually worked on our induction top (and would surely work on gas or electric burners), but I have a water boiler here that's sufficient for my needs, so I've decided to free up the shelf space.
