Swap one : Set of Two Czech Military Field Telephones

So, first swap done.

Cuban Poster swapped for a set (x2) Czech military field telephones.

Neil apparently is a former lawyer who now sells military stuff, not a big army fan he tells me but beats the office. He’s no stranger to swapping himself having swapped some of his military stuff for a 17ft sailing boat, nice work Neil.

These field telephones date from the fifties and are made of bakelite. Apparently if connected with two core copper wire and a 9v battery they are still fully operational. I haven’t tried it yet, so can’t confirm this but may have a go during week will keep you updated.

They are quite a cool and unusual thing, perfect for both warfare and connecting your shed to the kitchen. As usual I’m open to all kinds of weird and wonderful offers.

What will you swap me for…… A set of Two Czech Military Field Telephones.

Rip it up and start again - update.

After agreeing to a swap with the same guy twice! and waiting another week on him, I have given up on the swap and have decided to start over. I had an offer of a cordless drill and most interestingly a contract for a man's soul written in his own blood. While another mans soul is a tempting prospect, its gotta he hard to swap on.

p.s got offered a 1m fishtank on freecycle tonight! class.

EDIT: Poster now swapped.

A life on the ocean waves. yarr.

Check out this lunatic. It's crazy what people get away with first a free house, now boats.
The captain here blags yachts for nothing. Now boats are money pits and require mooring fee's so apparently in the states they are either given away sometimes or kept by the marina owner in lieu of fee's.

He ends up with a tri hull boat then a 61ft ketch after the first wooden one all for pretty much nothing. I've always wanted a boat, spent half my childhood paining and varnishing the damn things swearing I'd never have anything to do with one.

I WANT A FREE BOAT!
