We have a local dump and I just stopped out and asked the guy if he
would put any treadmills aside for me. Got two in a month.

Also, if you are there, you can get all sorts of neat trash. The side
of a refrigerator makes a nice enameled work top for the bench.

I'm waiting for AC season as I plan on getting a few 'potential
relays' from old AC units. the potential relay will work with a power
supply to allow a slow charge of the caps upon inital power on, then
the relay kicks in and runs the cap direct and bypasses the inrush
current limiter.
