Commodore Calculators (North Chelmsford, CM1)
Do you have an old Commodore scientific or special-purpose calculators? Maybe you have one lying around in a drawer, etc., possibly as a result of having purchased one of the newer types with graphing and even colour screens, etc., which have become the daily drivers and the older ones are forgotten but still in your possession. I have some in the process of restoration, and I'm looking for donor devices to try and make a few of them working and reduce the number going to landfill. The batteries inside leak and cause massive damage internally, so it may take many such calculators to effectively restore a single one. The photos show what these may look like.

Computer speakers (North Chelmsford, CM1)
Gifted
Colour is as per photo; these have been used, but the power supply has not, apart from for testing purposes. These used to be used by my son; he upgraded when the power switch broke on these a few years ago. They have just been discovered again while clearing out the garage. I have now bypassed the power switch and tested them out. The on/off is now either via pulling the low-voltage lead out of the rear socket or at the wall power socket. They have a pleasing sound, not at all tinny like so many are.

Empty 5 litre oil container (North Chelmsford, CM1)
Expired
I'm looking for an empty 5 litre container to store the contents of a new but leaking 5 litres of engine oil container that was delivered yesterday by Amazon but had been damaged in transit and oil is seeping out of it somewhere
