Free: Two seater sofa & spare covers (Calcutt HG5) Two seater sofa by Tetrad. Very comfortable and therefore well used. Ideal for a play room. Size W 6' x D 37" x H 28". The seat base cushions are feather filled so can be plumped up easily and re-filled if necessary. Two sets of main covers (one for the body and two seat covers in each) plus about seven rear cushion covers. The covers have been dyed over the years and would take darker colours again. The spare one in the bag is a darker burgundy. Covers are shaped to fit and then pulled in using pins that are like little corkscrews. I have some but they're available easily. I'd like this gone asap so preference given to anyone that can guarantee collection soon from Aspin estate in Knaresborough (but not Sunday PM). I MIGHT be able to deliver if you're this side of Harrogate as I think it'll fit in my van but I haven't tried it. Will take two people to lift and move as it's a very solid bit of furniture.

Request: Small, bagless vacuum cleaner for workshop dust extraction (Calcutt HG5) Expired Hi, I'm looking for a small, bagless vacuum cleaner ideally with a flexible hose but doesn't have to be as I can make these. It's just for small scale dust extraction on my workshop tools so something like one of the floor cylinder models or one that can be pulled apart and used without the floor attachments would be ideal. I can collect pretty much any time. Thanks for reading.

Request: wooden sheet/old furniture for a project e.g. pine wardrobe (Calcutt HG5) Expired Hello. I'm looking for some solid wood panels/sheets or old furniture that could be cut up for a project e.g. a pine wardrobe or drawers or a desk top. I can't use chip board or MDF only something solid wood but plywood is fine. I can collect pretty much anytime to suit you. Any leftovers will go to the local men's shed woodworking shop.

Free: 4 unopened bottles contact lens fluid (Calcutt HG5) Expired 4 unopened bottles of Coopervision Hy-Care fluid. Used for cleaning and overnight soaking of contact lenses. Expiry date April 2024.

Request: Wooden garden shed 6x4 or smaller (Calcutt HG5) Expired Hi, A friend has just taken over an allotment and needs somewhere to store tools etc. I'm wondering if anyone has an old shed they don't want. Needs to have the door at the end not the side. Max 6ftx4ft ideally smaller and a sentry box type store is fine. Any condition provided the frame is solid. I can replace the cladding & roofing easily, so just the frame structure would be fine. I can collect & dismantle anytime although it might take a while if it's nailed together. Many thanks for reading.

Request: Bakelite door knobs (round) (Calcutt HG5) Expired Hello, Just wondering if anyone has a couple of old Bakelite internal door knobs that they don't want. They need to be round ones something a bit like in the picture, any colour. Metal bits not required. It's to complete my sister-in-laws old house in Australia and they're struggling to find any over there. If you also have a key for the rim-locks that these went on that would be handy too. Many thanks

Free: Slimline upright LEC fridge/freezer (Calcutt HG5) Gifted Can anyone use a LEC upright fridge/freezer? Measures 50cm wide, 55cm deep & 152cm tall. Has just been used for beer storage in an insulated garage but I've fired it up again and both sections get cold as they should. A little bit dusty but will clean up very easily.

If anyone has any old keyboards (working or not) they don't want I'd very much appreciate one to have a go at some electronics experiments.
