Thanks Elliott, everyone has been so supportive and I appreciate it immensely. Cheers Stuart 🍻🍻🍻

Thanks Brian, you always leave encouraging comments and I appreciate that. Cheers my friend 🍻🍻🍻

Hi Ben, yes I probably should have grabbed that for $10. Thanks for enjoying the video. Cheers my friend, Stuart.

Thanks heaps Mark 👍👍👍

Hey thanks Chopper. 👍👍👍

Thanks for your appreciative comments Little Restorers, good comments from people like you mean a lot to me. 👍👍

Oh hi Nick, long time my friend. You certainly didn’t have to go far😂. Did you get that Roto toolbox, I thought of you when I saw it. So the $1k on the triples must have been a fair price but I’m glad your friend got a discount👍. Yes I thought $50 for the Dowidat board was a bit much so well done there. I got the crucibles for $80 for the pair which I was happy with. I’ll go back and take another look and find your pic. Cheers bud, Stu. PS I’m glad you liked the video, I’ll try and do a better job next year based on the feedback.

Ha, thanks Lyndon, my biggest restraint is my wallet. Luckily they don’t do credit cards at swap meets😂😂😂

Hey thanks Sparky, I would have liked to have spent all day there but my feet won’t let me since a serious car accident 2 years ago. I was pretty happy with the anvil too so thanks for that to. Cheers buddy.

I'm with you on car accidents, I'm ok until I stop and sit down then it's bloody hard work getting up again

@@Everythings_Adjustable You’ve been there as well?

Yes Mate, A big one in 1994 left me with nerve damage and a bad leg, now I'm 59 things are getting a bit harder to do... But I'm not dead yet and still having some fun, Hope your weekend is going well!

@@Everythings_Adjustable Sorry to hear that Sparky. Same here, April 2020 we were hit head on by a car that suddenly crossed onto our side of the road. My wife and I were smashed up pretty bad with lots of broken bones and other injuries including my feet. Every bone in my right foot was fractured and most in my left. My feet are now a different size and shape, from size 12 to size 13 xxwide. We’re both still recovering and we’re getting there but I’m 60 this year and as you get older, recovery takes longer. We consider ourselves lucky though as the two people in the other car were killed. I’m thinking of doing a video about it once all the legal stuff is settled. Look after yourself my friend. Cheers Stu. 👍👍👍

Thanks Magdad. It’s ok, everyone drives like that over here. 😂😂😂

👍😁

Thanks 👍👍👍

Hi Rob and thanks for thinking my channel is good enough to subscribe to. I remember quite some time ago I asked you about starting a channel and you were very encouraging so thanks for that. Adelaide has a lot more industrial stuff than Canberra so I think there would be some top swap meets there. There is a swap meet group on FB which really helps with knowing what’s on. This was the first Yass swap meet in two years so I was itching to get there. Cheers mate, Stuart 👍👍👍

@@scroungasworkshop4663 Hi Stewart, your view counts are really good on most videos, so you are doing something right. That and the like percentage will tell you which way to go. If I can get 10% likes, then the video has been successful. I generally prefer watching smaller channels more than the big ones as there is more likelihood of interaction in comments. Interaction is what will make you grow. People like to feel valued and it's good social contact. I have some viewers who have been with me since day one. With really big channels it's just not physically possible to maintain that degree of response. We all start small and grow, so size is not important from my perspective. I always support new channels where the guy is making an effort and the content interests me. Good luck for the future. Cheers Rob

@@Xynudu Thanks Rob, to be honest I’m surprised at the amount of subscribers I have but I’m sure you know that feeling. I’m not specifically trying to grow, I just want to share what I do with like minded people like yourself. I don’t pay much attention to the analytics, I mostly go on the comments I receive and thankfully they have been very positive. I try hard to respond to every comment because as a consumer I find it disappointing when i leave a comment and get no response. That said I’m completely happy to get just a “xxx likes your comment” as at least you know they read it. Cheers Rob and thanks again for your continued help and encouragement. 👍👍👍

Thank you so much Scout, you know I really appreciate your positive comments. How similar to your video was it though? I guess I learn from the best😂😂😂. Thanks again my friend, Stuart and Lea.

Hey Recycler, thanks for your positive comments I really do appreciate it. I like the Golden Fleece tins but $2k? Sheesh.

@@scroungasworkshop4663 haha, yeah - I'd rather be the seller than the buyer! 😂

Thanks Garry and I’ll do that next time. I appreciate the feedback 👍👍👍

rice growers along the Murry river he told me they poisoned yabbies in the channels wtf i said they eat weeds which they also poisoned didnt make sense i wouldve let a guy harvest the yabbies free win win $18kg now if you seen them SA

Awesome info and thanks for sharing. Cheers Stuart. 👍👍👍

Clunes vic 30klms out of ballarat see they held madmax festival there whish i knew that when living close by now in SA

@@markissboi3583 Hell yeah. Bummer you missed it🤬

Thanks Lee, but you guys in the states have the best swap meets as they’re huge. Check out Scout Crafter on his channel, he just did an excellent swap meet video and he’s in NY. Cheers buddy 👍👍

@@scroungasworkshop4663 awesome to see the old American vintage cars over there!

@@frick566 Hey Lee, yes, I thought with some careful editing I could probably say I was in the US. American cars have a huge following here.

@@scroungasworkshop4663 Nice!

Hi Jon and thanks for your comments. Yes our winters are cold but that day was perfect, the sun was out, hardly a breeze and about 22deg. No chance of doing it live as I’m flat out just filming it with my phone and I’m way to busy to finding my own stuff to find stuff for other people as well. I’m glad you enjoyed it though. Thanks heaps 👍👍👍

It sure was👍 Thanks Terry.

Thanks mate, everything is expensive here compared to the US. Typically the vendors that go from meet to meet charge a lot so I only buy from them if I really want something. I believe you guys are paying around $5 a gallon for fuel at the moment, over here it about $2.20 a litre or about $8.25 per US gallon. Then again I believe our wages are higher with the minimum wage here being $20.50 per hour. Swings and roundabouts I guess. Cheers mate, Stuart.

@@scroungasworkshop4663 I wonder if the Australian dollar is worth less the the US dollar. That would make your prices seem higher and your high minimum wage seem lower. Our gas just went up to 4.85 yesterday. The sucky thing is that there is no shortage of oil here in the US. Production is up, the federal government is releasing 1,000,000 barrels of oil a day from the strategic reserve, but it does not make any difference to the price. The "uncertainty" in the market due to the war in Ukraine is all the excuse the "market" needs to raise the price and the oil companies are making record profits at the expense of all the hardworking people. The rich people who own stocks in the oil companies are banking huge dividends and they don't give a crap about the price because they have money to burn and they sure as hell don't have to drive to work everyday! This is wartime profiteering if there ever was such a thing. The government should tax the crap out of excessive profits and use the money to help Ukraine and end the war sooner so the market can stabilize.

Thanks heaps Barney as I had no idea. If I don’t learn something everyday then I feel like I’ve wasted my day. Cheers Stuart. 👍👍👍

@@scroungasworkshop4663 good video too. learnt from it .

@@barney992 Thanks 👍👍

Hi Leo, I’m glad you liked it. Thanks for your comments I appreciate you taking the time to explain where I can do better. I’ll definitely be taking that in. Cheers mate, Stu.

Good on you Roman, I still wish I had bought it.😂😂😂

Hey Elliott, I’m subscribed to both of those Kiwi channels but a big thanks for recommending them as I’m always happy to find new channels. Salvage Workshop is another great channel that fixes old machinery. Cheers and thanks. 👍👍👍
