Once I have a 3D printer I will be looking to provide the following schools with free 3D printing for staff and students. Bamford School, St. Ann's Catholic School, Tamariki School, Te Waka Unua School, St Marks School, Christchurch Rudolf Steiner School, Opawa School, Mt Pleasant Primary School, and St Martins School. Why these schools, because they are within easy cycling distance of where I live. My first step is to raise sufficient funds for a 3D printer. If anyone can help me with that it would be very much appreciated.

I would like to offer the local schools a free 3D printing service. I have experience with 3D printing but don't have a printer at this time. I am willing to cover the cost of materials and have a little money put aside towards a 3D printer. I need help raising the the rest of the money needed to get a printer, about $1,000. The 3D printer I am looking at getting is the Prusa i3 MK3 kit. This printer produces high quality prints in a variety of materials and is great value for money. It is also expandable to allow for multi colour printing.

We have a large selection of household items, books, linens, a set of golf clubs and and clothes. You can come and check out our SpringFree trampoline and swing set in the backyard which we will also be selling (most likely through TradeMe but open to good offers!!).

There is a large outdoor umbrella, single duvet, girls duvet cover set with matching pillowcase, summer weight sleeping bags, camp stretchers for kids, old TV cabinet (free to a good home). Our address is 13 Woodhouse St (off Gloucester) and we'll be running the sale from 8:30am to midday. Photos were taken when we first tried to have this sale in the middle of the summer holidays and had three people turn up (clearly not a good time of year) and we have added a LOT more since then. Come and make an offer!

I am selling my house . its a 4 bedroom , 2 bathroom home in woolston . Its on trademe as listing number 1499031099.
10 steam wharf lane .
So here the deal I am thinking of.
The house has a registered valuation of $420k and a purchaser could make an offer of that value of $420k and settle the sale in 5 years.
I would want the prospective owner to sign a lease for that 5 years . Then after the five 5 years they need to get themselves a mortgage (say with kiwi saver deposit?) and settle up for the house .
There would be some other conditions as well. But the important understanding is this is not a rent to own scheme. You are not paying extra rent to build up a deposit , but you will be paying a premium rent.
You dont need a deposit in this deal. You will need to come up with the 420k in 5 years or something else acceptable to me at that time.
I expect the deal would best suit young people just starting out who need a house now but wont have a deposit (but should have one in say 5 years )
The purchaser gets to lock the price in now , and pay that price in 5 years.
The house is going up at 3.5% a year and will be worth in the order of $500K in 5 years , but the price will be $420k.
The canny will have already realised that they could buy and sell the house and make $80K

get in touch if you want more details. At his time I have not worrked all this thru and would be ahppy to talk about the idea with any interested party.
cheers
