Free to good, bad or indifferent homes: 2 Panasonic DVD recorders.  They were both bought in 2002 or 2003 and were working when I last used them, but that was a few years ago and while they've been stored reasonably carefully, I can't make any promises about their current operational state.

One of them has been modded for multi-region playback, but I'm not sure which one.  They look exactly the same and, well, I lost track of which machine was which.

If nobody wants these I'm just going to Freecycle them or throw them out, so don't be shy.

I'd love to take one off your hands Christine! I have a Sky+ box that begs to be "freed". Thanks a million in advance.

I'll be in the Space Moday evening for the Arduino working group and I'll have a look.

Cool.  PaddyD wants the other one (this thread got split somehow), so Glen will bring both recorders in tomorrow.  If multi-region-ness matters to both or either of you, you'll need to figure out which machine has the mod.

One of the machines is now in the space.  It's in its original box, near the front door on top of the crates of Club Mate.  There was a mix-up with the second one and it accidentally got left at home; Glen will bring it in within the next few days.

Thanks Christine, I'll be in this evening for Laser Cutter training. Unless Paddy needs it urgently I might pick this one up? A' la first-come, first-served? ;-)

No hurry from me though Paddy!

Thanks again.

Paddy got the first Christine,

I'll take the second off Glen's hands when he's around next... many thanks again.

I believe Glen is due to be in the space on Monday evening -- I'll let you know for sure when the machine's been dropped off.

Thanks Christine,

let me know what type of projects you work on and I'll see if I've got anything of interest in my personal "pile of stuff" :-)

My current projects are 1) software stuff that I can do on my laptop, and 2) de-cluttering the house of things we don't use.  You've done me a favour re: project #2 already. :-)

Damn! Project #2 must be a default for any HackSpace member! ;-)

Cheers
