3h

Free: Oak planks (Cutteslowe OX2) Promised 171x21cm and 216x19cm, 5cm thick. Straight. A bit of water damage but this will only be skin-deep as it's oak! Currently in a skip, which seems such a shame. Skip will be collected next tues (28th).

Free: NAS RAID box (Cutteslowe OX2) Gifted Promise SmartStor NS4300N, from about 2006. 4 SATA3 disk bays.
