From their website:

“TGIMBOEJ, The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk is a
progressive lending library of electronic components. An internet meme
in physical form halfway between P2P zip-archive sharing and a flea
market. It arrives full of wonderful (and possibly useless) components,
but you will surely find some treasures to keep. You will be inspired
look through your own piles, such as they are, and find more mysterious
components that clearly need to be donated to the box before it is
passed on again.”

– cassette player, walkman, dictaphone (motors, paddles (?) & heads)
– certain pieces of washing machines (pump, wash drum)
– transformers, adaptors & all kinds of power supplies
– electronic bells
– alarms
– old phones (they’re easier to work with)
– electronic parts of cars (12 V) : f.e. the motor to control the rear view mirror
– tape-recorder
– record players
– toys that include batteries
– speakers
– all appliances with knobs you don’t use anymore
– potentiometer, sensors
– old electrical toys
– old cables you don’t need anymore
– screwdrivers, soldering iron, dremel
– mechanical things containing a motor (f.e. a hat with a solar panel)
– everything that provides electricity
– small parts f.e. the mechanism of a doll that speaks
– a lego train
– curling tongs
– fax machine, scanners, copy machines : the older they are, the more mechanical they are and thus more interesting to recuperate certain elements (it doesn’t mather if they’re broken!)
