Weekly Freely Fridays: Offer your junk to someone else for the cost of shipping! - The Grim Ninja - 06-23-2006
Yeah, I was planning on posting this earlier, but got busy with other things.
So, post your free junk, try to post whether you think it works or not.
Try to keep this post limited to FREE items. If your item isn't free... well... I guess we'll need to work that out with the admins/moderators as we would need their permission to actually sell items.
You're also welcome to post your Wanted items, I suppose you can include if you're willing to pay more than shipping for something, and of course the discussions for those items should be handled via PM or e-mail.
I'll be following with my list of Freebies and Wanted items. Any questions, just ask.
As there isn't a lot of activity today, I don't think a sticky will be necessary.

I guess I should have clarified that a bit more.. The iBooks listed are for the type of machine which the parts below go to. I'm not offering away whole functional ibooks. (They still fetch a pretty penny on ebay) I'm just offering the random pieces I've collected while working on a few ibooks. These parts aren't worth selling on ebay (I've tried) but if someone needs them, they're free for the asking.

Hey Grim,
I need about 4 or so of the T-8 torx screws for a Powerbook (bottom case) I am working on which I think are the same as an iBook.
PM me with the shipping costs (envelope, stamp and a peice of paper????)
Re: Weekly Freely Fridays: Offer your junk to someone else for the cost of shipping! - The Grim Ninja - 06-24-2006
iBooks only have 3 torx screws total, I believe they're T6. The larger screws are philips and are hidden under the feet.
Also, I think I would only have 3 of them, 2 long and one medium length.
I'll check the manual and get back to you.
Re: Weekly Freely Fridays: Offer your junk to someone else for the cost of shipping! - The Grim Ninja - 06-24-2006
It looks like they are T8's. I should have 1 at 10mm, 2 at 20mm, I'll look for them. What sizes are you needing?
(If you're not sure, I can look them up for you. Just tell me the make/model)

It's a Powerbook G4 800 DVI and according to the iFixIt take apart guide they are T8's.
Tools You'll Need: T8 Torx Screwdriver
Remove the seven T8 Torx screws from the lower case.
See page 2.
I am missing 2 or 3 and I remember one being kinda stripped.
Re: Weekly Freely Fridays: Offer your junk to someone else for the cost of shipping! - The Grim Ninja - 06-24-2006
According to my manual, you need 8mm long screws. The one 10mm I have might work, but knowing apple, probably not.
The two 20mm ones definitely wouldn't work.
