This desk is solid, but has seen better days. Sold square pipe frame with two drawers that kind of work. Could be fixed.
The top is quite marked but it would be suitable for a workshop to sort out the business side of things.

Comes with a 12V power adaptor ( no mains plug on it. ).

Comes with a 12V power adaptor ( no mains plug on it. ).
They may be of use to someone as cabinet lights or a nightlight or somewhere you need a dim light.
From memory, all three lights work.

I am looking for a firm who can install underfloor insulation in a Masterton 3 bedroom house.
The Healthy Homes inspector has said that the existing underfloor insulation is not good enough, needs to be removed and replaced.

I have decided I do not want to continue to create mosaics. This is a great kit, it provides you a range of mosaic tiles, cutters, and grout in multiple colours, designs and a partial completed sphere.

Ntablet is an open-source tablet for developers to learn and program. As a portable tool, it gives not only convenience to your projects, but also help to create more innovative designs as what you imagine. With it, you can start programming and developing anywhere, you can freely DIY and control TV, air conditioner, curtain, light, and even Robot.
The company is positioning the tablet as a one-stop replacement for a homebrew solution including off-the-shelf single-board computer, battery, touch display, camera, and speakers. Each tablet is provided with a GPIO break-out board, charging dock with integrated wireless serial connectivity, and an instruction manual which should cover the tablet's built-in sensors and GPIO capabilities.
Ntablet offers a totally new way to help develop applications, learn to program from zero, play video and games, and even compose your own Android or Linux device. The portability makes Ntablet quite strong, not only can you use it to DIY, but also as a remote controller for Robots.

See rare and private collections of fascinating vehicles and machinery, beautifully restored to their original working condition. It's an affordable day out for families with ticket priced for adults $15 per day, youths (5-15 yrs) $5 per day, and under 5 yrs are free.
Each day there's an action-packed programme of events in the arena, with all manner of weird and wonderful pieces on show that our ancestors once depended upon. Steam engines are always a jaw-dropping sight, and the Clydesdale horse carriage rides are a hit with kids!
Check out the full programme here and the range of ticket options here. It's on from Saturday to Monday, 10am - 4pm each day. Highlights for each day are:
• Saturday - vintage and modern cars, and motorbikes
• Sunday - vintage, classic, and new trucks
• Monday - agricultural machinery demonstrations and 'on farm' equipment
This is a three-day event, so come along and wander around and soak up the atmosphere. You'll be amazed at what you'll see there. Free all-day parking, entertainment, food and drinks available.
For the full programme and other info, go to: www.wheelsatwairarapa.co.nz...
With torrential rain and flooding caused by an 'atmospheric river', should this event convince us all that climate change is real and we need to be taking action?
