ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA BOOKCASE. American Black Walnut hardwood and veneer. 28.5" high, 25" wide, 9" deep. Shelves are 11 7/8" high and 22.5" wide. This was designed to hold a set of Encyclopaedia Britannica books. It was sold by Encyclopaedia Britannica. The bookcase is as high quality as the Encyclopaedia Britannica. It is very sturdy and in very good condition. It is not so heavy; one person can easily lift it with no books in it. The image with a set of Encyclopaedia Britannica books in it is of a nearly identical, but different bookcase and is included just to show what the bookcase looks like with a set of Encyclopaedia Britannica books in it. The Encyclopaedia Britannica books and the bookcase in which they reside are not for sale as they belong to my wife who treasures them. You may, of course, use the bookcase for whatever you like. The dimensions of the bookcase are ideal for many uses--including storage of Fine Woodworking and Fine Homebuilding and many other Taunton Press publications. American Black Walnut hardwood and veneer. 28.5" high, 25" wide, 9" deep. Shelves are 11 7/8" high and 22.5" wide. Note: later Encyclopaedia Britannica. bookcases were collapsible and much less sturdy. Not this one! It is rigid, sturdy, but light weight.

Canes and Walking sticks. Iron wood cane is 34" long, and though not pretty, it may just be the best cane you are likely to find. Adjustable cane is 29-38" long. Pool cue walking stick is 57" long. Walking staff with crutch tip foot is 54" long. I just used the walking staff to stabilize me while walking home on icy sidewalks in a very windy New Years Eve Chiago blizzard. It served me well, indeed!. Your choice, $20.

AVATAR. This could be added to your ads, or your posts. It could be your trademark, or whatever. It can certainly compete with your pet rock! $25

Stools. 29" high. Sturdy. Only one left, $10.

15 yds of textured polyester material. 55" wide. $50

LADDERS for pool, bunkbed, to access the roofrack on your van, whatever. Each 54" high. Only one red ladder still available. $8

DOCTOR'S SCALE. Seca brand. Made in Germany. Adjustable. Capacity 400# or 160 Kilograms. If you need to keep accurate track of your weight, you need an accurate Balance beam scale like this. Your typical spring based scale will give you inaccurate readings. Digital scales are no more accurate than the system they use to measure weight--typically springs. Balance beam scales are much more expensive to manufacture than spring based scales. $150

SCALES. The above and below scales sit side by side. Pick up and you will be able to compare the 2.

HEALTH-O-METER SCALE. Balance beam coupled to easy-to-read scale. Balance bean accuracy without the need to adjust weights. Adjustable. It stands about 3' high. 300# capacity. I sand blasted it, primed it and finished it in green enamel with a textured leather covered platform. I bought it from an octogenarian and I have not found another like it, so it may be quite old. Cast iron construction. Well made. The close up of the leather is lightened in order to show the texture; the other pictures show the true color of the paint and the leather. $150

STAINLESS STEEL TABLE. Government surplus. From Dental Lab. High quality construction. Has leveling feet. 20X28X32-33" high. Needs cleaning up. Has much tape residue on it--mostly around the sides. Will clean up. $100.

FLO-HOT INSTANT WATER HEATER. Model c-1, Landam Products Corp., NY. At 15 amps and 120V, it should provide plenty of hot water for coffee, etc., but do not expect to take a shower. It is designed to screw onto a faucet with ordinary 3/4" hose threads. There is a brass screen filter on the inlet. The outlet is on the bottom. A switch on the top allows you to turn it on/off. $30.

CUSTOM OAK STAND FOR BOTTLED WATER DISPENSER or CROCK. Solid oak legs. Oak plywood top. Stands taller than and is sturdier than commercially available stands; the average height person does not have to bend over to fill his glass. A 5 gallon bottle fits underneath. Crock listed separately. Now that I have given up bottled water I may turn this into a plant stand when I find the time. $125.

BOTTLED WATER DISPENSER or CROCK. It is clean. It does not leak. Although not shown, I have the plastic disk for the top rim that the water bottle sits upon. $25.
