Do we have a [permanent] Pay it Forward thread?

[Karate Monkey]

I've got some little things that don't make any sense to try to sell (either too cheap, one-offs, not worth the aggravation, etc)

As long as it's okay with the boss (@fidodie ?), feel free to add your own.

I'm okay with mailing stuff, but you have to pick up the tab if it's more than a first-class stamp.

Festool oscillating multi-tool pads, 40 grit, intended for painting/staining (wood), x4

Leviton double-rocker switch, white. 15amp each/20 total. Has a common terminal (one line in)

Misc tuning stuff: el-cheapo contact mic, Korg CA-20 and CA-40 tuners (40 has a wider range, both are good for normal guitar tuning), Peterson smartphone adaptor for their strobe tuning program. Doesn't seem to work with anything else?

Shimano promotional stuff. Zee beer koozie, Dura-Ace phone wallet (5" x 3", thin):

I'll add/delete stuff as I find it/it gets picked up. First come, first served is a bit harsh, just don't claim it and take more than a week to grab it.

i am far from the boss - but seems referee might work.

we have a permanent pay-it-forward, but i can never find it, and it seems that a title, with item might work better.

shrink wrap:

@JimN I was thinking more 'non-bike' related

A separate thread for non-bike related is cool. I have a ton of stuff I should probably put there myself.

I was just taking this opportunity to show @fidodie how to use the Internet.

it truly is a brave new world.

i guess i could type 'forward' in the search box up there and look through the results - since there is no 'refine'

Is that el cheapo matrix tuner pickup a magnet or mic with a diaphragm?

No idea. My guess would be magnetic.

Old camera equipment

Minolta xg-a 35 mm camera w/light attachment
Promaster spectrum 28 mm #301294 lens
jc penny 135 mm lens # 911508
jc penny 55 mm lens 80-200 mm lens # 8216566
Minolta md 55 mm lens

from the internet (tldr)

Not fully manual, shutter speeds can be set to +2 or -2, The XG-A was essentially a point and shoot for those who wanted an SLR.

Nice stuff, if you're taking a film course at one of the two places (ha) that still offers them at a college, you could do a lot worse. It'll probably work better than the cameras they provide.

Old not too used Solomon 6 ski boots and bag. size men's 8. free to good home. And bag.

Gave up skiing for biking. Near hartshorne.

My desire to ski has dropped a lot since becoming a cyclist over a decade ago. Granted becoming a cyclist also coincided with having to pay for my own lift tickets and airfare.

That weighed heavily on my decision to give up skiing. The cost of skiing is rather high.

To get started and if you go with expensive gear, sure. The good thing is that they are low maintenance, and once you stop growing, you can keep your skis and boots for a very long time. The problem with bikes is that new technology comes out so frequently and me always wanting to upgrade something. Not the case with skiing in my experience. I raced the same gear for 5-6 years when I was younger.
