The Black Hole is a repository of "nuclear waste" as Ed puts it. He pretty much bought lots and lots and lots of salvage from Los Alamos National Lab, and offers it for resale. It has so much stuff in it, so haphazardly, I can't really get my head around it. I am pretty sure I want to buy lots of stuff from there, but every time I go I get overwhelmed with the sheer volume of crap and come to the realization that I need nothing. Good for me.
In true moscaline fashion I bring you a small fraction of the wheeled detritus available at the mighty black hole. For a less specific overview, see more photos around the interweb at Jsn's boozehound labs and this flkrpage.
It is probably worth clicking all the images for enlargement as it is impossible to display the magnitude of chaos from a small cropped image.

I hope you at least brought home the home brew cycle! Maybe an Edinator inspired King wheel would take it to the next level
sorta reminds me of Boeing Surplus http://www.boeing.com/assocproducts/surplus/retail/index.html
Christian,
It is almost exactly like Boeing surplus, except it is mostly crammed in an unheated leaky old supermarket, devoid of order or sanity, and the stuff is not in as nice condition. I did vist Boeing surplus a few years ago and was similarly overwhelemed, but not quite as chaotic. I really wanted to buy a 2' diameter inflatable airplane wheel for bicycle purposes, but was not sure how to get it home from seattle...
that seems like a place jaybasile would enjoy...
