by Dulcimer Hope Brubaker 06 Jun '11

06 Jun '11

We are moving soon and need to sell some items that won't be going with us. Click on the links below to see photos and dimensions on our craiglist posts: - *Wooden pantry cabinet<http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/fuo/2423933682.html> *, purchased in 2007, with upper and lower doors. Three adjustable shelves make this the perfect storage solution for food items, craft supplies, linens, or office supplies. Exterior is in perfect condition; interior shelves are clean but have a few stains from food spills. *$150 * - *Solid wood wardrobe<http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/fuo/2424105457.html>, painted black. Has hanging bar for clothes and one wide drawer at the bottom. Sturdy, in good shape. There are a few areas that could use some touch-up paint. $100 * - *Baker's rack <http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/fuo/2423976939.html> with plenty of storage options -- use the hooks to hang pots and pans and keep pantry items at arm's reach using four convenient shelves. If you need extra food prep space, the wooden shelf is helpful with that, too. Purchased in 2007, this baker's rack also comes with a wine storage shelf. $60 * - *Light-colored wooden changing table<http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/bab/2424049272.html> with wide drawer, lower shelves, and wardrobe area for hanging baby clothes. Sturdy, in good condition, with some blemishes on the surface. $50 * - *Antique wooden bedside table.<http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/fuo/2424072312.html> Three drawers with antique hardware. Finish is not in the best shape but we always liked its rustic look (it could be refinished or painted, though). $25 * - *31" Sharp TV <http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/ele/2424128969.html> in great shape. I'll throw in a Panasonic DVD player if you buy the TV. $50 * - *"FOR SALE" signs: *We have two "For sale by owner" signs with a holder, as well as an infotube to hold informational fliers. The sign and infotube together cost $35 at Home Depot; the second sign came free when we listed our house on forsalebyowner.com If these items would be helpful to you, make an offer! - *Queen and double mattress sets and frames:* we're not ready to get rid of these yet because we're still using them! But they will be available for sale and pickup on June 17-18. If you're interested in looking at them/making an offer in advance, let us know. They are both in clean, used condition. - *Window air conditioning units: *again, we're not ready to part with these until moving day, but we will have three units for sale and pickup on June 17-18. If you're interested in looking at them/making an offer in advance, let us know. All were purchased within the last 3-4 years; one of them has a thermostat control and remote. *Please e-mail me at dulcimer.hope(a)gmail.com or call 412.894.1873 for more information or to come see any of these items. Thanks!* * * Dulci Brubaker

[Highland Park] Kitchen-Aid mixer, Kenmore air conditioner and Yamaha acoustic-electric guitar for sale
by Ben Gundy 06 Jun '11

06 Jun '11

Hi everyone, We have a few items to sell. First, a Kitchen-Aid mixer, the Select Plus 4.5 quart model. It's this one: http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/kitchendining/kitchenelectricsnew/mixers/PR… We got this as a wedding gift less than a year ago. My wife wanted something a little bigger for her more ambitious baking projects. This one works great, though. Asking $175. Second, a Kenmore window air conditioner, model no. 580.72056200. Its BTU/h rating, according to its sticker, is 5,300. I don't know what that means, but it's quite an effective window unit. Also includes a remote. We bought it slightly used less than a year ago and used it for last summer, then we had central air installed. Asking $80. And finally, I've posted this on here a couple times before, but I'm still looking to sell my Yamaha acoustic-electric guitar. I've realized I probably had it slightly over-priced due to my own affinity for it. It's an FGX-412SC with a sunburst finish. I bought it about 10 years ago for around $500. It's gotten a lot of use and has a few minor surface dings in the finish, but it's a great-sounding guitar. I'm now asking $200. Send me an email if any/all of the above items pique your interest. Thanks! Ben

I'm building a no-weld bike trailer like this: bike trailer link<http://drumbent.com/trailer_big.html> And to do so I need use of a 3/4 inch emt conduit bender for an hour or two. It seems a shame to buy one since i only need it for a couple of hours. Would anyone have one i could use, or know of someone whom i could contact? In return for your generosity, once ive got the trailer built, i'd be happy to help you build one for yourself! thanks!
