Roland Keyboard for spares? (Bear Flat)
Expired
Roland U-20 RS-PCM keyboard, about 30 years old, which has suffered some damage because the glue holding the keyboard weights has melted. Not sure how this happened but apparently it was a known problem in Roland keyboards of that era. We haven't taken it apart, but the glue could very easily have penetrated inside. It would cost a lot more than it is worth to repair it (involving hot caustic soda, etc) but can anyone use bits of it for spares?

Cacti (Bear Flat)
Expired
A bowl of cacti that have gone a bit wild, too tall to stand upright without support. I believe that you can chop them into segments, dry the ends and grow them on, but I don't have the time or space to do it. Would anyone like to take them on? I'm not sure how you would transport them and you'd need thick gardening gloves to handle them. ou can take the bowl too.
