Request: Cardboard moving boxes (Duddingston EH15) Anyone have any boxes going spare? Moving ma-in-laws flat at the weekend.

2d

Free: Snow cone/slushie maker (Duddingston EH15) Promised As title, comes with a bunch of syrups and paper cone cups. Has no instructions, and I have no clue how you use it, or even if it works, though I have no reason to suspect it doesn't. Will also need a bit of a clean

4d

Free: Bag of fine sawdust (Duddingston EH15) Gifted As title, but please note this is very fine dust - useful for garage spills and the like, but definitely no good for pets.

44d

Free: Shower tray (Duddingston EH15) Low profile shower tray 120cm x 80cm. This was fitted, then removed a couple of years ago, so never used. Good condition (though it could use a clean) except for a small chip on one side (see pic), which would probably be hidden.

55d

Free: Electric radiator (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Oil-filled electric heater, rated at 1kw. Works perfectly but no longer needed.

+1

57d

Free: Mattress topper, double size (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Feather mattress topper, standard double size (4ft 6in). Plenty full of feather.

58d

Free: Scalextrix (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Bunch of Scalextrix. Includes power base, two controllers, 18 curved track pieces, 8 basic straight tracks, start grid and 2 crossovers, banking supports, barriers and 2 cars. Cars are not in best condition, and the contact brushes definitely need replacing. It just about works but the metal parts of the track could do with some scouring with a Scotchbrite pad to improve electrical contact.

135d

Free: Pair of bike wheels (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Merida rims on no-name hubs. Came off a hybrid so are fairly chunky. One good tyre, one very worn. Rear has 7-speed screw-on freewheel.

165d

Free: Stanley 220 block plane (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Oldie but goldie, basic block plane. Blade will need sharpened.

165d

Free: Kitchen cabinet hangers (Duddingston EH15) Expired Pack of 10 hangers for wall cabinets. Hangers only, no plates, but they are readily available.

166d

Free: Rusty hatchet (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Would clean up ok.

166d

Free: Black & Decker Workmate (Duddingston EH15) Gifted This needs repair. It was given to me, but I don't need it and can't be bothered with the repair. The thread has stripped in white plastic parts (see second photo), so they'll need replaced. They are eaaily available (I can supply a link) and it would be a fairly simple job to fit them. It was also left out in the rain for one night, so the tops are not perfect. To discourage the click-now- think-later merchants, please let me know in your reply that you understand it needs to be fixed.

166d

Free: Printer ink cartridges (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Unopened ink cartridges, as pic. These are third-party cartridges that were bought for a Canon printer that we no longer have. Check the serial number to see if they fit your printer.

Free: Carbon monoxide detector/alarm (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Essential safety for gas appliances.

179d

179d

Free: Saniflo unit (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Saniflo Turbo flush. It works fine with the toilet, but doesn't really cope well with toilet, hand basin and shower.

179d

Free: Two kayaks (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Pair of 8ft river/ calm water kayaks, plus two small lifejackets. We were given these over the summer, but not used them.

195d

Free: Ugly Monster DIY kit, plus troll (Duddingston EH15) Gifted Make your own ugly monster with this fun kit. Could be a friend for the lovable troll also on offer. Monster kit bought as a novelty Christmas present last year, so can't promise the clay hasn't dried up.

226d

Free: 3 sheets 6mm plywood (Duddingston EH15) Gifted 3 full 8'x4' sheets of hardwood ply, a couple of sheets with small cutouts. This has been down in lieu of kitchen flooring for a few months, so is a bit mucky on one side. Happy to cut it up if you want it to fit in a car.

226d

257d

Request: Rear bike wheel (Duddingston EH15) Expired Anyone have a spare rear wheel kicking around - 700c with ability to take an 8-speed cassette? Not looking for anything fancy, just serviceable. Oh, and for rim brakes rather than disc.
