"One man's junk is another man's treasure"
"Where there's muck there's brass"
"What?? You're throwing that out??"
As regular readers will know, I can come up with cliches espousing the art of "recycling" all day.
I never get rid of anything, and do all I can to scav everyone else's junk too, so as a consequence I've got boxes of allsorts of crap. As an example, I've got 12 pcs in various states of disrepair in my shed at the minute. four monitors, three printers, two steroes, two scannersa, and countless phones and other random electrical casualties. I've also got boxes of individual components and other salvaged pieces. Mother boards, ram, other circuit boards, panels, ohh, I tell you, you like junk, you'd be in your element (got a few elements too, actually).
I'm always keen for a bit of swapping, especially where I've got loads of things the same (I'm starting to get sick of making buildings from power supplies).
So same deal as the other threads - got any urgent junk needs to fix, post up here and we'll see what we can do.

Right, I'll kick it of with a small list. Wire Ducting, square corigation, 28mm outside diameter with a full length split for feeding wires through. I can spare about 2 meters 250 watt AT (some ATX) PC Power supplies, probably a couple here, they all work and dont have to become terrain. probably got 2 or 3 to trade 2 or 3 cd-roms, 48 speed, again still working so not necisarily terrain. 2 or 3 floppy drives 2 OLD hard drives that are to small to use (180mb) CD Stacker spindles, 10 disc, and 25 disc capacity, probably about 4 of each size... They are excelent for Tau terrain as shown in my links bellow. the first one is a series of how to WIP photos displaying all the techniques I used to create my Tau Firebase as seen in the second page... photobucket.com/albums/v661/dustand/How2Tau/photobucket.com/albums/v661/dustand/Terrain/The rest of the pics are examples of my unfinished terrain projects (never finished anything till the modeling madness contest) All the stuff that I have listed Was free or cheap (mostly free) As for my needs, I need stuff that is either Orky or Jungle worthy. At the moment i have to restrict what I am building so I can credit anything to the Orks. at the end of the year I will be expanding my sights again... Cheers

Yeah it was on Terragenisis, till the thing got hacked =[ now I have to type it all up again and that takes a couple hours... which is about the time most of my posts take...
Thank you for remembering it =]
I got dream weaver on my PC so I can start making my website, yay...
And to keep in topic, I am always keen for Milo tins, Coffee tins and basically any tin that comes with dry goods in it. Not into baked bean tins... get enough of them =]

I've got a few catering size coffee and milo tins, they are pretty useful.
