Default How much spare and broken equipment do you have lying around?

As the title says how much broken and spare equipment do you have lying around or stored somewhere in your place?

I personally have enough to fill a 5 gallon bucket and I could in theory have enough to start another tank

So you're turning a poll thread into an opportunity to sell stuff?

I've recently decided to get out of the hobby after about 9 years running SW.
I had to make a spreadsheet as I have too much stuff - and to answer the title about broken or not ... I toss/recycle/re-purpose broken stuff.
My spreadsheet started with over 250 functioning items.

OMG, I had no idea I had so much stuff. I think it started as a 'not wanting to deal with hardware failures in the middle of the night' thing

BTW, this is not me promoting my for sale stuff. Just joining the 'Holee crap I have too much stuff' crowd.

Merely responding to a request.

Could be sale, could be a give away.

sorry if I offended your sensibilities.

Literally just trying to help someone else out, not me.

All good?

It's so hard to get intentions across in threads ...
