My SOTW came as a huge surprise. The super at my complex knocked on my door last night and asked me if I wanted this, because if I didn't he was throwing it out.
I don't think I've ever said "yes!" so fast. He had it mounted on this plaque for years with thin wire holding everything down, so it had a good layer of dust. After a little bit of cleanup and some oil & grease, it runs fine. The Tyco Depot
