Greetings!

I want to build a full size version of H.G. Wells time machine and am looking for two specific items.  If you want, you can Google it to see images of what it looks like.

The first item is a 4 to 6 foot satellite dish. If it’s larger than 6 feet, it won’t work.  These are typically not used any more, so I am looking to help someone get rid of the eye sore in their yard (in other words, I don’t want to pay for it).  I would prefer that it is still on it’s pole and I would either dig it up or cut it off at the ground.  If it has a little surface rust, that’s ok…but if it is rusted through, then no (I have to worry about someone cutting themselves).

The second item is a extra wide chair or maybe a bench with a back to it.  The original chair looks like it has red/burgundy velvet with gold painted wood and was only for 1 person.  I want to make mine so that 2 people can sit at it, but I don’t want it any wider than 36 inches.  I can paint the wood but don’t want to upholster, so as long as the material is a red/burgundy color…it would work.  It also needs to be sturdy.  I can pay a little bit for this item, but am on a budget…maybe we can barter.

If you can help me with any of these items, please email me your phone number and what you have.  If it’s convenient, pictures would be helpful in deciding if it’s going to work without wasting gas.

Thanks,

Robert
