Free: Garden Bench - Repairs or Spares (PL4) Two seater garden bench in need of repairs. This bench is not currently safe to sit on and will need repair work done on it before it will be usable. It's beyond my diy skills to fix it but seemed a shame do just throw it away so I'm hoping someone more skilled than me can either fix it or possibly just make use of the wood. There are three points in the wood where the bolts and barrel nuts secure together that have splits in them. I've wrapped them with tape and a cable tie for now but really they should be secure with something stronger maybe a metal bracket of some sort. The forth point has completely come away making it not possible to tighten the bolt i'm not sure how this would be fixed possibly with some type of wood filler. The backrest has some play in it as well I don't know why this is as there is no visible damage. Dimensions: Width 121cm Height 91cm Depth Seat 48cm, Armrest 60cm Can be collected assembled or I can disassemble it if requested. No holding need gone asap. Collect only from PL4 Greenbank.

Request: Bicycle Stand Handlebar Holder. (PL4) Bicycle maintenance stand handlebar holder. I've got a bike maintenance stand but it's missing the handlebar holder that would have come with it. To purchase one separately will cost me more that a whole new stand so I was wondering if anyone had one they no longer needed? The holder is used for holding the handlebars in place so they don't move and whack you in the head which has happened to me several times. The handlebar holder is the part with the red arrow pointing at it. I'm in the PL4 area and can travel a certain distance to collect if needed. Thanks.

Request: M6 x 60mm Allen Head Furniture Bolts (PL4) I've got a cot but it doesn't have any of the bolts or barrel nuts that would go with it so I am unable to assemble it. It needs 16 M6 x 60mm bolts and 16 barrel nuts which would be M10 diameter with a M6 thread. Ideally they would have allan heads but I appreciate beggars can't be choosers so I'll be happy with what ever I can get as long as the thread they have is compatible with the barrel nuts as they don't all have the same thread which can lead to incompatibility issues. If anyone has any of these they're willing to let me have I'd be most appreciative thank you. I'm in the PL4 area I can travel a certain distance to collect if needed.

Free: Ikea TV Stand (PL4) Withdrawn Ikea TV Stand. Really solid stand can take quite a lot of weight on top of it. It is fairly heavy however as it's on wheels it can be easily moved dependent on what type of flooring you have of course. It does have some noticeable cosmetic marks (see photos). Our house is smoke free but not pet free and this stand has spent most of it's time in the same room as dogs. Although the dogs wouldn't have really come into direct contact with it I've given the whole stand a surface level clean. It's missing the shelves that would have originally come with it as they were missing when I got it although I imagine it wouldn't be too difficult to add some yourself. Dimensions: Length 150.5cm Width 50.5cm Height 39.5cm Underneath shelving part: Length 45.5cm Width 44.5cm Height 25.5cm Could do with getting it gone as soon as possible as it's taking up much needed space.

Free: Double Bed Headboard. (PL4) Expired Could do with getting gone as soon as possible as it's taking up much needed space. Bed headboard for a double bed frame in generally good condition. Dimensions: Length 138cm Height 61.5cm (2m) Depth 5cm (Approximate) The two pieces of wood on the back are 66.5cm long. It has some marks on the back and a small rip on the front at one point but it's not really visible unless your looking for it. Three of the four bolts are missing so will need to be replaced with: 1 5M and 2 6M x 350mm bolts I believe 300mm length could be long enough. The reason the bolts are different sizes is because two of the fixings which the bolts screw into were missing so I've replaced them but I only had them in a 6M size. Ideally need gone as soon as possible as it's taking up space. Collection from PL4 Greenbank.

They're for a piece of furniture I want to give away but it's missing seven of the eight bolts needed to assemble it.

Request: Box Castors, Furniture Castors, Rubber/PVC Castors (PL4) Expired I bought a bed for my niece which has an under bed drawer that is mounted on wheels, but two of them are missing, so I was wondering if anyone had two they could possibly spare? Looking online I've seen them listed as: box castors, furniture castors, rubber/pvc castors etc. I'm not entirely sure of the accuracy of the measurements I'm providing, as what I got was slightly different when using a ruler vs calipers, but I'm going with: 40mm length, 22mm width, 18mm height. I'm in Greenbank PL4, if you're local enough I could come and collect them. Thank you.

Request: Pieces Of Wood To Fix Raised Bed (PL4) Expired My dad helps run the Friends of Freedom Fields park and they have some raised beds some of which are falling apart.

Free: Basic Cot - Needs Some TLC (PL4) Expired I've got a basic cot which should still be perfectly usable, but as shown in the provided photos there are a couple parts of the wood which have a split in them so it may need some TLC (tender loving care) before being used again.
