Motorcycle leather trousers (Melbourne CM1)
Gifted
These are "ordinary" trousers. They are NOT overtrousers. Waist approx 34"/87cm. Leg approx 32"/82cm Leg unzips to mid thigh to get over boots. Lining is spilt/work at crutch (see photo) but still fully waterproof when I was thin enough to get into them. There is no armour, nor pockets for it, but there is a small amount of some Hein Gericke padding built into knees.

Served me well. Has a small wine stain visible in one photo and blown up in another. Has been dismantled and the Allen key that is sole required tool is included. Would fit into most cars in current state. Folds to half size when not in use.

Strummer- Works BUT NEEDS NEW PLUG (Melbourne CM1)
Gifted
I'm never going to bother strimming grass again, so this is going. I have just spun it up ok then stepped on the plug and bent the pins, so you will need to stick a new plug on it.

Working Strimmer (Melbourne CM1)
Gifted
I haven't been bothered to strim grass for last 2 years and that seems permanent. Plugged it in and it spun perfectly OK.

Small Habitat gateleg dining table (Melbourne CM1)
Expired
Small stain in top, shown in closeup picture. This wobbles a bit, and always has done. I am sure that a diagonal cross-brace to the legs would stop this, but it would preclude folding it back to half size, so I've never bothered. If you are interested in it but worried about getting it home, I can dismantle to step 1 by removing the top or to step 2 by also dismantling the frame to separate legs cross bars. You will need an Allen key to put it back together.

SDS Masonry Drill Set (Melbourne CM1)
Gifted
Barely used, and a bit too heavy for me now. This is a definite two hander of a drill. Takes SDS bits and chisels, not "normal" ones. Collection only.
