Hey Thub! I have a friend like yours, he never stops talking too! I have to write things on post-it notes if I want to ask a question 😆

I will give you 1 good tip. Save mower tires. Get a pic of them on mower. List "mower tires" on marketplace. They've really gone up in price. I've been shipping sets of four this past summer and fall 😀

Love the videos!! You should keep the plugs from the cords.

@christophertaylor2464 Жыл бұрын

I was going to say something about the plug off of the cord that he throw back in the garage. I always keep the plugs that is brass all you need to clean them is a small vice and a pair of pliers every little bit adds up. Some people say that it is not worth the money for the time but I say if you are doing nothing like watching t.v. than you could be cleaning something up to make some money.

So I’ve come to realize that not all “metal only bins “ are giving kick backs to companies or those who rent them. I usually ask just for peace of mind but a little research Into the name on the dumpster will help you. More often it’s just a giant recycle bin that companies have to pay to have hauled off

Hey Thub, about the flat screens............ you can easily zip the back off and remove the boards in no time at all. Just let the boards accumulate until you decide how to deal with them....................... If you don't think you'll ever delve into gold recovery, disregard this comment, it's just a suggestion, not a signal that I know everything. Great video man!
