Title: Excess PD hose
Post by: Charlie B53 on April 27, 2015, 05:07:54 PM
I use the three-phrong cassett and cut over 10 feet off the drain hose.  I have maybe 100 of these 10+ foot sections in a BIG pile in the garage.

Now I am not usually a Hoarder, unlike a certain Woman I am married to.  I just can't bring myself to throw away something that someelse may have a use for.  I just don't knkow who, yet.

Any ideas?

Last year I started a similar thread on what to do with all these boxes.  One of you suggested the Food Bank.  They LOVE getting them.

Now if I can find someone that wants all this hose.  I could have a clear spot in my garage.  Not a big one, the Wife has too much stuff.  I doubt I will ever park our cars inside again.

Take them to Good Will, St Vinnie's or to a thrift store.  You never what some people are looking for.

Not an answer, just a comment. A couple of years ago I was showing both of my kids a bunch of experiments with pumps and siphons. They were mildly entertained and interested, but it didn't go anywhere. When I look at the PD supplies I discard on a daily basis, I keep thinking that I would have liked to have it at the time. Even the tube clamps would have come in handy, and the set could be adapted to use as a manual pump. But I don't really have time.

As for a practical use, beats me.

No house plants.  But I have a great crop of weeds in all the flower beds and in the garden!  They don't need any help.
