Great score on the band saw Sylvia!! :handgestures-thumbupright:

Can you say FREE.... sure I knew you could! :D

 

The bike you can have.... looks like too much physical exertion!

Thanks!

 

My favorite 4 letter word: FREE

 

The bike color is a bit “off” for this site, but I’ll get it spiffed up and pass it on…

Great finds!! Either one of those would go to good use here. The bike would get a good go over and go to a grand daughter and the saw would go to my son ! Glad you picked those up, people just dont appreciate what they have, at least drop at a Goodwill or Salvation Army store.

I know why that bike got tossed but I'll refrain from revealing it to avoid getting "THE LOOK!" :rolleyes:

Flat front tire is only issue…

 

Even has a built in bottle opener on the front forks…! :dance:

That flat front is the key to why it got tossed

That was probably a pandemic bike and got parked when it was too hard to ride it all the time. Then the tire got soft. I wouldn't be surprised if it pumped up and held air

People waste their assets all the time and then want support when they wind up poor.

All the "trash" is the end result of a disposable mind set society.

That's a nice bike, maybe 3 or 10 speed, front and rear brakes, it even appears to have lights. Cup holder and a luggage rack, and white walls. Anyone would be styling with that fine ride.:ychain:

Although wood is correct, it really looks like cork handles.  The bike is too short for me, looks like a 24".  Here is my bike ride...1970' Schwinn, with 6 pack baskets.  I also have the girls bike in green, same year with saddle baskets. :handgestures-thumbupright:

they’re actually foam handle grips patterned to look like wood… nevertheless comfy… :thumbs:

 

I fixed the front flat, lubed everything up, rides perfectly… :banana-linedance:

 

I kinda like the seat and handlebar design… may put on a dress and drive it…! Now there’s a visual… :scared-eek:

Nice addition to the garage…

Excellent recycling. 
 

if you decide to tune up the saw, google Alex Snodgrass.   Easy and works well.

I'm not one of those people. I don't through anything away. That's why there's just a path through my garage...:bitch:
