    A projection TV,
    I like them cause they have 3 copper yolks , Then you have the sizable portion with the yolks that often is AL on top or just a nice heavy piece ready for mix also the lenses are a handy item like a super powerful magnifier . Good boards and a few times i found short steel in case used as weight so TV is not top heavy
    ---------------------
    But what I don't bother with are printers - But the cartridges have value at staples $2 each as store credit
