Looking for used physics lab/demo equipment

[Tom Hammer]

Hi, I'm looking for used physics lab/demo equipment that you might personally own and are looking to sell. I'm starting to do science with the grand-daughters, and buying everything new would be expensive. Things like: bunsen burner for propane, compasses, iron filings, bi-metallic strip, or anything that I could use that you would be willing to part with.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tom,

The PF probably isn't the best place for such a solicitation, since we are all spread so far and wide.

Have you looked on Craigslist? Even better, look into your local NextDoor online community (assuming that you are in the US) -- they have a section for free giveaways and for inexpensive stuff. You would probably get good local responses to a post on NextDoor...

Best of luck!
