Any Nomads Need a Free Stove and Microwave?
Any nomads need a free stove and microwave? I will post pictures later. I'm guessing the appliances are about 9 years old.

That is the question. It's here, but I have no way or time to transport. It's gonna be picked up by Home Depot in a few days if I can't find someone
to take it off my hands.

Works. It shuts off randomly while in the middle of heating sometimes.

I think these were bought in 2005. Free if you can transport.

Why not support a local charity such as Habitat for Humanity or AmVets?

How 'bout an effort to get these down to Blanca's college students in La Paz? They're working so hard to make a better life for themselves.
I gave 'em a new propane tank last year just before their freshman year began. It's be so great to ease their struggles with these items, Nomads.
Edited to say: Get 'em to Mulege and I'll get 'em to the kids in La Paz.

Good idea. Planning on shipping them off with the company delivering the new ones. Where that is I dunno.

USA gas is different than mex propane, generally requires the flame tip ? per burner has to be changed. Not sure about the oven portion?

Thank you ! But we don't need anything like this. If it could get to Blanca, or maybe post on your local Craislist or Freecycle.

Amvets is a great suggestion folks, they pick up at your door, easy peasy.
I always forget about the difference between states and mexico stoves. Thanks for reminding me.

Right you are, Pablo. The orifice will have to be changed.
Oven too.
