Dumpster Diving Street Scrapping Hunting for a Win
Рет қаралды 12,084
Ай бұрынAn adventure dumpster diving and street scrapping just trying to make some money turned a little bit sideways when we tried to add some kind of side quest at the end. It didn't really go as planned despite multiple attempts, but mayyybe if we keep truckin, we might close out on a win after all.
Wire stripper I use: amzn.to/3sirg18
The motorized stripper: amzn.to/3y0JMuQ
The wire cutters I like: amzn.to/2T6j3OW
The grips I recommend: amzn.to/2QCJmYl
The melting furnace: amzn.to/3EGxT2q

the first water heater, if you take the control box of it has a nice piece of brass and a nice piece of copper on it. The second water heater in the control box has a small circuit board and two nice copper coils in it.

That's how she rolls. Ups and downs. I think we all join in for the same reason. We watch for you. I watch ads when they are not 45 mins long. I see alot of that now. Today alone had a 3 hour ad, full documentary as an ad. Crazy. So continue showing all you want.I for one appreciate it. Look forward to the uploads weekly. Oh the mushroom video was a nice change up. Not sure where I would do that here in Newfoundland but looks like a great time to get out in nature and make a bit of coin. Keep it up Thub!

I went out today in the pouring rain got wet twice as i came home got changed and went back out but better covered with a wet weather jacket and shoes. looks amazing there ! nothing better than the sun shining and finding treasure I did ok, I found more copper in dumpsters than the actual council clean up... keep showing your content it makes me want to go out after watching I should be doing collecting videos but this channel is more for my jewellery stuff and a little bit of scrapping melting and paintings of jewellery

There is a very high likelihood I can send you with a remote for both of those TVs. I can let you know Monday if you’re interested! Also, please keep up side missions like mushroom picking. It was just like old school Thub videos and I really dug that!
@thubprint Ай бұрын
I would appreciate that! The jvc would be a nice treat but the Toshiba would be a huge help. Pm me somewhere, I can send you pics to confirm and of course I’d pay you for them 👍 The mushroom one was great fun, I’ll keep making those ones whenever possible! The views do matter of course, so I can’t just do side quests unfortunately 😆
@westermanneric Ай бұрын
@@thubprint Oh yeah, of course! You gotta make a living! It was just super cool seeing what else you get up to. I really liked the old videos for that, when you’d sprinkle in a couple that were completely different. As for remotes I’ll check my stash on Monday and let you know what I’ve got. They won’t be the exact model or anything but I’ve had great luck with backwards compatibility.

We cleaned out my wife's Father's apartment, he was a massive smoker, we threw everything into the garage for 6 months before dealing with his estate, sigh, fk/sht, contact high from the nicotine yellow stained stuff. It literally polluted the garage with 2nd hand smoke, good times!

@thubprint Ай бұрын
It’s tough to make it work long term, but I think that’s a feature more than anything? Scrapping is a great way to fill the gaps, maybe not so much a career. Some folks definitely make it work and work really well, but it’s good that some people do it for a while and then move on to something more reliable. Personally I love it, I’m having a great time!

I've yet to see a vid on you tearing down a electric stove yet. I am sure you did but need to know if it would be worth it. Never torn one up yet, and betting there will be goodies in it. Can you do one in the near whats left of the future? Pretty dang right score, kid!

I love the old school picking, but that mushroom one was special. Maybe tree planting this summer?
@thubprint Ай бұрын
Tree planting isn’t the kind of thing you can typically waltz in, do for a week or two, and then leave when it suits you.. they’ve always had a problem with people trying to leave a couple weeks early for festival season so they’re generally pretty strict about “celebrity plants”. I’m glad you agree though, I’d love to just do videos like that! (You may have noticed the trend 😆) there are a few other adventures that I think are worth a feature however, so I’m looking at scheduling them in this year.

How do you remove glue or silicone from aluminum extrusion?
@thubprint Ай бұрын
It’s actually pretty tough sometimes, I usually just give it a once over with a metal scraper and try get it “good enough”, but I always have a couple dirty pieces of extrusion anyway so I don’t fight that hard over it. If you really need it clean though a wire wheel on an angle grinder is probably your best bet 👍
@PolarBearStorage Ай бұрын
@@thubprint I am tempted to try a wire wheel on a mounted grinder. Have you tried this?
@thubprint Ай бұрын
@@PolarBearStorage I haven’t tried that personally, and it kind of sounds like a bad plan to me… those things have a lot of power, and they aren’t meant for working on large pieces of material. Too risky for me, much better to put the workpiece in a mounted vice and use the angle grinder 👍

Sadly I do not, the scrapyards near me do have red and yellow brass categories but my brass doesn’t add up quick enough for me to worry about separating things. I just have the one brass bin and a handful of dirty brass on the side
