spoke to Gary this morning and suggested to make a post here to give this stuff away.
we are moving soon and wont be taking this stuff, which is good order, so is better to give it someone who will use it.

Just looking at the photo of this stuff....I would have died for this equipment when I was a young man..Hopefully it will go to a good home where it will be lovingly used.

Steve,

Please keep us all appraised of your intentions. Certainly, I would not want to see this stuff thrown away.

Would the tall thingy work as space age hair dryer for Robyn aka The Jetsons?

Probably not, but you could remove the enlarging lamp and replace with damp sponge. Should work on hair

I hope so too.

felt sure that someone here would be into it, hence trying here first.

would have been a big shame to become landfill
