Woodworking tools

Category: DIY

I'm starting a furniture making and design woodworking course out in Letterfrack, Connemara in the West of Ireland, and I need a bunch of woodworking hand tools such as chisels, planes, hand saws, etc, so I anybody has some of these laying around the garage or basement, collecting dust, they would be very much appreciated. If they're a bit rusty or bit up that should be fine, I should be able to sharpen and fix them up, unless they're really gone.

I'm exchange, I'll try to learn and make you something cool out of wood :)

Thanks,
Steve

Soil sieve and/or seed sieve

Category: Gardening and Growing

Hello,
I make my own compost but it can be clumpy and needs sieving. Got a soil sieve you would like to swap for something? I'm not sure what I have to swap for but let me know. It could be some help with your garden etc.
I also collect seeds and need a seed sieve. Same thing as above. I could swap you some seeds perhaps.
Let me know if you are interested.

Lift from Clonsilla to Rathmines

Category: Lift / Transport

Hi. I would like to collect a chair from Clonsilla, and bring it to my place in Rathmines, but I don't have a car, unfortunately. If somebody with a car could do that with me, I would be forever grateful to you. It shouldn't take more than 1 hour. Ideally, I would like to get the chair on Wednesday, 16 August, or Thursday, 17 August.
Please let me know if you can help. I would be forever grateful to you. Thanks. Tiziana.

Compost / soil / sand

I am building a small raised bed in our front garden and would love some soil / compost / sand to raise it up. It's not for food growing, just bee-attracting plants etc hopefully. Thanks!

Hi all,
If anyone needs to free up space in a garage because that floor sander is just a big space hopper, just give me a shout! Looking to borrow floor sander in the next few days to sand just one bedroom. Will collect & return of course in top nick condition 😁

What to do with 2 empty generic laserjet cartridges

Category: Computers

I brought these cartridges home from work in the hope of recycling them. Checked with Dublin City Council and they only have two places that take them. Not convenient locations for me, and you have to pay. It was suggested to put then on adverts.ie for free but I'm too embarrassed. Will do the nasty and put them in the black bin in a few days unless someone has a better idea! Thanks Sharers.

Space for 1-2 beehives

Category: Gardening and Growing

Hello,
I am an amateur beekeeper looking for a site to put 1-2 beehives. It would be ideally situated in Dublin and could be a flat roof or a small green area. I would look after the bees and share the honey harvest with the owner.
Many thanks,
Sabrina
