Free: An amber traffic beacon. (Fakenham NR21) It's a TrafiBeacon quality item made in England By Dorman. I think it is supposed to run on 24v but I tried it and it works well on 12v. The rubber base is frilly around the edges and it doesn't stick to the car roof so it needs attention or maybe some magnets glued in under the rubber. It has a Hella type plug fitted.

Free: Microsoft Steering wheel and Force Feedback joystick. (Fakenham NR21) Gifted A Microsoft Sidewinder Steering wheel which clamps onto the desk edge. It has floor pedals as well and comes with the power supply in the box with manual. Also a Logitech force feedback joystick but there is no power supply with it. These work with windows 7 but they may well work with later versions or in compatibility mode.

Request: CB radio microphone (Holbeach PE12) Expired I need a microphone for an old CB radio. In fact I need 2, Plugs need to be 4 pin types but I think I have at least one somewhere so not essential. If you have something that might be suitable, I would be grateful. Thank you.

Request: Meat grinder (Fakenham NR21) Expired I would like a meat grinder, either manual or electric. I am not too bothered about the condition as I can clean it up. As long as all the parts are there, it would be rather useful for my cooking experiments.

Request: Aluminium offcut (Fakenham NR21) Received I am looking for a piece of aluminium plate that is 1/8" thick by 2" or so. Or a piece of channel section 1/8" thick by 3/4" x 3/4" by any length over 2". Size is not critical but thickness needs to be a minimum of 1/8". I want to make a heatsink with it for an electronics project.

Free: Microsoft Sidewinder PC steering wheel and pedals , joystick (Fakenham NR21) Expired Good condition when it was put away 20 years ago. Hasn't been used since. I don't know if it works on modern Windows systems as it was only used on my Windows 98 PC. I think it's all there in the box. You can also have a Logitech force feedback joystick but I can't find the power supply for it.
