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.

Hand-cranked hose storage (Old Ottawa south)
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.

Wall-mounted Hot Wheels set (Old Ottawa south)

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.

Two window screens (Old Ottawa south)
Gifted
53 cm wide by 128.5 cm high. Not sure if a common size or not. In good shape, but no longer needed, as the windows in question were replaced with a door. They have little spring-loaded pegs to hold them in place.

Canon Pixma Colour Printer (Old Ottawa south)
Expired
Model TS3450 Worked last time we tried it with Canon brand ink cartridges, however when we tried to use an off-brand cartridge of the same specs, it came up with an error. We've received another printer for free so are passing this one one to someone with the patience to locate the correct cartridge.

Four dining table chairs (Old Ottawa south)
Expired
Four sturdy black parson's chairs with a nice dark wood and faux leather, suitable for use with a dining table. The faux leather is worn to lesser and greater degrees depending on the chair. so they'd look nicer with covers of some sort, or at least if you put a cushion on them.

Compost bin (Old Ottawa south)
Gifted
Standard black rectangular bin. Seems to be missing one flap, but that might be hidden on the ground behind it. Thus best to collect before the snow accumulates.

Two medium carafes (Old Ottawa south)
Expired
Two medium sized insulated carafes, capacity probably about 1 litre each. Unfortunately, the lids are lost, so some other corking solution would be required to keep beverages hot or cold in the carafes.
