No, seriously.

I have 'litter' of about 10 of 'em...they were built to be used for a winter backpacking program, actually...and they've been sitting around my garage for years now. Time to get 'em out of there.


I know, they're easy enough to make, and they might be a little on the small size for the next Dawn Wall attempt, but maybe they'd be of use to someone? Each one is made of Schedule 40 pvc, and is custom-named. (Feel free to re-name, if you like...they are quick learners.)

If you want one (or two), they're yours....gratis. Free. Nada. And if there're no takers, they're going to the landfill. I'd rather not pay for shipping if we can figure out a way for you to cover it...or maybe we can arrange a pickup?

PM me using ST mail function, though you might want to give a heads-up here since that function can be spotty sometimes.

OK, I have an idea. If it can't be picked up, I'll pay the mailing cost, and the recipient can reimburse that cost by donating it to some worthy source. That's a pretty modest amount, but still a nice gesture that will benefit more people.

i.e., Access Fund, ASCA, Tents for Nepal, or....?

As long as the MP/Access Fund program is working, let's designate it as the beneficiary. Can someone provide a link to the donation site?

I'd rather arrange a pickup if someone is in the So Cal area, but if that's not feasible & shipping has to happen, the recipient will be on the honor system to donate that shipping cost to MP/AF.

Here's the names of the 'pups'- pick your favorite(s):

Fire in the Hole......Gone!
The John
One Holer......Gone!
The Jane
The Bomb......Gone!
Number Two
Hers......Gone!
Tubular Dude......Gone!
His
Super Pooper......Gone!

How serendipitous!

I was just looking for way to expand my storage options for my poop collection.

Will consider used tubes as well.

LOL - this is gross and I have now stooped to a new low in collecting. HAHA

Please send me the "Tubular Dude". It'll actually be good to have an example of a righteous tube in my collection.

Let me know about $hipping, etc.
