    I can!

    Love council throw out nights.
    Keep up the good work dumpers.

    I got a pair of KEF loud speakers a few months ago, straight home put them on Ebay $225 in 45 minutes.

    What voltage is the power supply? looks home made.

    It's the same thing that was used in the movie the "Green mile" in which Tom Hanks played a prison warder. they used a device similar to the pic to excecute prisoners by electricution

    I scored a KIRBY 'Heritage' vacuum cleaner on a kerbside collection. Motor and brush ran fine, but ZERO suction. Obviously 'stuffed', so out it went

    - PO had'nt bothered about buying bags, just used it 'as-is'.
    Simply washed outer (fabric) bag.... put in the correct paper one.... and it still works a treat.

    Im atually not sure of the voltage, havnt put the Meter on it yet, it does look home made too, but looking at the windings it has to be good for 50amps at 240v which looks like its on the secondary, who knows what the primary might be, it was built big for a reason..

    It looks like an arc welder to me.

    Things you throw out huh, I had a 1966 Mercedes Benz (Finnie) SL230 , cancer ridden, had it on ebay for $180 no takers,
    so drove it to the tip, took the headlights home with me and put them on ebay - they sold for $250 the pair, go figure !!
