Parts

From the list of items being disassembled to the right you can get some idea what we may have components for. In fact, the stock drawers are full of recovered parts from the smallest diode to cathode ray tubes. Stocks continue to grow as more equipment becomes available to us. Many parts are from lines no longer in production. Why not check and see if we have what you need?

Developments

  1. We have a glut of equipment to recycle at present. Our storage area is full! Please bear with us as we work through the items on hand.
  2. We now have quantities of passive components available for electronics projects
  3. There is room for another trainee, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays 3:30 to 5:30pm
  4. We accept old boards and cards for raw material recovery (subject to available space).
  5. Case metal and fittings can be recycled by

This page is for old PC gear. They all seem to wear out, don't they? The thing is, most PC system components break down sooner or later and you are faced with deciding whether to repair or dump. Often the repair costs more than the equipment did, and it may be out of date as well. That's why so many people replace rather than repair these days. Isn't there something useful to do with that old PC or screen etc? Of course there is. Just drop it off at our workshop and our staff will either repair it and donate it to a new home, or an apprentice will be assigned to disassemble and strip the useful components out of it. In practically all cases, even when the fault cannot be repaired, 99% of the components are still in working order. Of course, this is quite a labour intensive job, so how can it be made to work? Simple. I provide electronics training to students as part of their work. They learn about transistor circuits, passive components and construction techniques. Then the get to choose components to build their own personal projects. The teaching and experience generate practical work skills any employer could benefit from. The students in turn develop a hobby and become actively creative in their spare time. Now, isn't that a good way to use the old equipment?

Just drop off the gear to our workshop at:
16 Hudson Ave,
Upper Hutt 5018
New Zealand
or phone (04) 5286786 to arrange pickup.
