Makita 1/4" (6.35mm) 530W Fixed Base Laminate Trimmer Model 3709 RRP $285
From a business closure. Two available, one little used, the other unused - first buyer gets the unused one. Tested running (runs fine) but no paperwork, box, or any accessories with it - hence the low price. Going to list it on Trademe tonight so if you want first dips then get going. Pickup in Green Bay (we live opposite Green Bay High School) is MUCH preferred though it is possible to send if buyer pays p&p, or if you are outside Auckland then maybe a friend of yours in Auckland can do the pickup. As I work from home I'm here pretty much all the time, so just let me know a time you would like to come round.
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already!

Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
