The cans opened with a churchkey are older than the ones with the pulltabs. See if you can find more info about that factory across the canal. Could explain a lot of your finds. Looks like you found the "5o'clock spot" where the workers gathered to have a brewsky before going home after work.
He sounds like the dad character that Cherdleys does. Absolute midwestern "Oh, my gosh". Sounds like Michigan maybe. This is the my first time seeing this channel.
Lufkin, at the I graduated from high school, made all kinds of percision measuring tools. They made micrometers, dial indicators and all kinds of gages pretty much the same as Starrett. Around 1969 they sold their percision measuring tools business to Pratt & Whitney. I still have a set depth mic's. In the percision tools they made some very good stuff. They sill make tape mesure and such . When got into machine shops a lot of machiest preferred their tools over Starrett . Thought you might find it interesting.
Well Mr. Fisher, interesting things this trip. Those cans that needed to be opened with a can opener, date back to the 50's and early 60's. Making them 60 to 70 years old. Amazing they aren't rusted more than they are. Leading me to believe that one, they were thrown later in life, not 70 years ago or, two, that water is very clean and they lasted a long time. Good luck with finding a blacksmith. I think that metal those files are made out of is perfect for making many things. Keep these great videos coming, great job!!
I am sure that at the end of the week or maybe just the end of the day, the workers from that factory would sit on the back dock and pound a six pack before going home. Back in 86, I worked at a place that on a Friday night after the last shift, there was always a case of beer that someone brought. We'd pound it then go home about 2 beers each. If this was a union shop then a lot of those files are in there deliberately. How can you work if you don't have the tools. But if you're union back then you got paid whether you worked or not.
Goes to show how people, 50 or 60 plus years ago, used the canals, rivers and streams to toss their trash in like too many do today. In my county some cheap tightwad thought it would be a great idea to dump a load of used tires over the side of a small bridge that crossed over a creek. The tires might not have been found for a while if it hadn't been for a heavy rainstorm. With the tires acting like a dam the creek overflowed and flooded the road. It took county work crews a day to clean up the tires and debris. All because someone didn't want to pay to recycle or take them to a landfill.
I keep feeling like I'm being clickbaited by all these dangerous and creepy finds in the title, but then I realize they are dangerous and creepy. This guy is just so happy about all of his finds that I don't even realize they are.
7:33 there are tons of them, make sure you find one that does Damascus very well, they can make very cool blades with different types of steel mixed together in layers..that way you can have them use files, raidroad spikes, drill bits, lathe cutting tools and some old chains all mixed together in an awesome blade that'll last forever
My kids want to magnet fish after watching your videos. I used to go with my uncle when I was a kid back in the 70's and he would drag a pipe with big hooks attached below a pier on the California coast. I remember him bringing up fishing poles. He mostly dragged up weighs and fishing hooks.
I would be more than happy to buy a can in as good of shape as some of those were if I were ever lucky enough to find one somewhere. My late grandpa rarely ever touched beer or wine, but Budweiser was his favorite.
Nice job again Fisher! Back at the old factory and if you have a display case in your garage just clean up those cans and set them up properly you got yourself a solid display of old cans.
With the files I would clean 1 or 2 up and see if they have a manufacturer name on it like Snap On Tools since the home office is in Wisconsin then they could be worth some money
Chilling what good condition that plastic was in. Geez. And the cans, I can hardly believe it! What a lucky duck you are!!! And if it were me, I would SO have saved that rag and gently washed it to see what it was...that was interesting! Good video as usual. The best to you. OH, and you can make a quill of that feather, so fun.
I was a Schlitz drinker in the early 70's. A stop at the convenience store scored a six-pack of Schlitz and a Box of Marlboros for $2.00 even. The good ol' days!
2:22 If the bolt has only 2 long flats on the head it was a tee slot bolt used to hold something to a milling/drilling table. 9:04 That is a nicely cut circle---Not the peanut butter cup slug you usually get.
What's amazing is alot of cans in the water ( you wonder why there not thrown into the trash)!!! { bet there is a few files in there, probably from that building}. Helps the environment from taking alot of metal from the rivers and different places you go. Say safe. 👍🏻👍🏻
It is no wonder that factory is no more given the employees were probably drinking on the job, ditching their tools in the canal and having drunken prison like knife fights. Would have been an interesting place to work. I kind of missed this spot it has been a while.
Oh wow my grandma and grandpa used to drink Schlitz way back in the 70s I was born 1969 and I remember my grandmother and grandfather buying that all the time they couldn't go to the neighborhood grocery store with out buying a case or 2 lol 😂 I'm 52 years old now wow so long ago good memory 🤣
Just a piece of advice Fisher, here in southern Pennsylvania we know all about Schlitz. If you drinks Schlitz it'll give you the shits most definitely. Beware the Schlitz!!
That water looks pretty green from algae ,so Oxygen levels are probably low due to bacteria breaking down algae and other organics. A low Oxygen level in water can under certain conditions help to preserve fragile metal objects like steel beer cans . Those cans are old enough that they predate aluminum as the predominant metal for beer/soda cans . Pretty neat find actually.
Your perfect can (the beer can, not your backside) isn't as old as the others. It has a pop top. The older ones needed a can opener (triangle openings)
The "shank" is most likely just a knife made up for cutting tape and packaging in the yard, usually made from a piece of broken bandsaw blade. I have had one just like it in my toolbox for over 40 years. Common practice. The Lufkin tape measure made me laugh because I've never seen a metal one. The ones they make today are REALLY cheap plastic cases and right at the bottom of the quality scale.
I came across your videos and the excitement in your voice got me curious so I sat and watched a few next thing I know I find myself buying a magnet off Amazon and I’ll let you know what happens.
Look at the top of that Budweiser can. See the two triangular holes? That can is from pre ANY kind of pop top. Those bottle openers you sometimes fine with one rounded end (for bottles) and a pointed end (for cans) are what made those traingular holes. (Yeah, I'm old enough to remember. LOL)
Great job showing people what plastic looks like after sitting in the water that many years and not showing any signs of desolving
Ya😉
Plastic breaks down a lot faster in salt water.
That shank though. Someone had too many Budweisers and had a really bad day 😂
WhY aRe ThErE sO mAnY cAnS
@@smiley3695 TO MANY CANS!!
I love how excited he gets for finding literally anything.
Lol i do to
sad thing is people just thow everything in water.
Lol he when he finds trash he's like Oooo!
I do to

From what I remembered, they used to make parts for the paper industry, like special gears and the like. More of a one-off machine shop.
I’m going to scream if there’s another can 😣
The manage of that factory told him come visit any time, and seemed interested in buying any history from his factory
Group of guys back in the 50s sitting around drinking a few beers listening to some tunes, throwing them in the water you never know
Yeah you never know
And maybe one of them was an escaped convict and murdered someone out in the water and dumped his murder weapon after finishing the beer
That Schlitz can can be from 21 years old, to 172 years old. Wild!
I don’t remember watching the submarine races at at spot. Wonder how all those beer cans got there.
He sounds like the dad character that Cherdleys does.
Absolute midwestern "Oh, my gosh".
Sounds like Michigan maybe.
This is the my first time seeing this channel.
Wisconsin
Not funny

the amount of beer can they guy who threw them prob made them fish stoinked as hell
GODDAMN IT REGGIE,YOU DROPPED THE WHOLE DAMN TWELVE PACK IN THE CREEK AGAIN!

This was awsome. keep up the awesome work. And ignore the haters.
Thank you 😊
@@TheFisher your welcome
I keep feeling like I'm being clickbaited by all these dangerous and creepy finds in the title, but then I realize they are dangerous and creepy. This guy is just so happy about all of his finds that I don't even realize they are.
6:47 That looks like a whetstone. My dad had one, used for sharpening.
Was wondering when u where going back to the factory. love this spot. Don't stop till u get it all!!!!!!!!!!l
"Oh yeah that feels heavier for sure..."
Me: Two cans
Ha
ha
ha
Oh baby a triple
Love our enthusiasm . Boy your magnet is heavy. I could not throw it with my 84 year old arms. My 450 pounder is hard to toss far. Great Vids.
7:33 there are tons of them, make sure you find one that does Damascus very well, they can make very cool blades with different types of steel mixed together in layers..that way you can have them use files, raidroad spikes, drill bits, lathe cutting tools and some old chains all mixed together in an awesome blade that'll last forever

Been a while since you found a file. I always like when you find a spike. Wow, man, many can! You, I must thank, for finding a shank.
Lol. I'm drinking a Budweiser while watching this. Plus some rum and a cigar.
Sounds fun
I am to.😆
You know something crazy is about to happen when The Fisher says "SHUT UP!"
Crazy all the cans!!
Heck yeah, venison burger and some MAEEGNET fishing! Thanks Fisher.
that location is 5 miles from "America's Drunkest City" so makes sense to find all those cans in there lol
Appleton?
Is it just me or does he get excited just over a roofing nail...LOL!
I would be more than happy to buy a can in as good of shape as some of those were if I were ever lucky enough to find one somewhere. My late grandpa rarely ever touched beer or wine, but Budweiser was his favorite.
Lol you sound like Scrappy.... "Hey Scoob...how about a Scooby snack?". Love it. 😊
Nice job again Fisher! Back at the old factory and if you have a display case in your garage just clean up those cans and set them up properly you got yourself a solid display of old cans.
Those cans are in amazing shape. Schlitz brings back some memories! Not good memories either! 🤢 thanks for another great video!
THANK YOU for cleaning up the waters. The magnet gods looked down on you and rewarded you with a shower of beer cans 😂🤣😂👍💖🙏💖
Those beer cans are a really cool find. Good job!
Awesome back at the spot. Great finds ....and a fileeeeeeeeee
Glad to see you back at this location! I love seeing you find all the files
Throw that rag in washer and it will probably fall apart. Lol
That was cool that you found all those old beer cans. Great find. Awesome 😁❤
With the files I would clean 1 or 2 up and see if they have a manufacturer name on it like Snap On Tools since the home office is in Wisconsin then they could be worth some money
I love this because he's basically cleaning the water by magnet fishing it out
I love the file spot its my favorite all those files might be historic finds so cool. You never know what you're going to pull out of that spot!!
Not much time, but some cool can finds 👍👍. Great job 👍. Keep going, be safe, and most of all keep smiling 👍😀👍.
it's so funny seeing how this guy is so excited about cans but I can't blame him it could be old and interesting
Hey, just curious what got you interested in doing magnet fishing in the first place?
I started watching videos on UA-cam!
Chilling what good condition that plastic was in. Geez. And the cans, I can hardly believe it! What a lucky duck you are!!! And if it were me, I would SO have saved that rag and gently washed it to see what it was...that was interesting! Good video as usual. The best to you. OH, and you can make a quill of that feather, so fun.
OMG another can! I love this guy he makes my day!
2:49 Robert Stack's father invented that famous slogan for Schlitz beer :D
So full of energy, love it
He is doing a great thing for his Community
I love this guys energy
Sounds like employees where drinking their lunch in the old days. Can't leave those cans around for the Supervisor to find.
I love the excitement in his voice
This was a great video
I liked it when you banged the metal thing on the railing @6:58
Keep up the good work!
My Grandpa used to drink Schlitz, back in the 70's, Kinda dated myself there.... Hahahahahaha
I used to live next to a Schultz brewery in the late 70s
I was a Schlitz drinker in the early 70's. A stop at the convenience store scored a six-pack of Schlitz and a Box of Marlboros for $2.00 even. The good ol' days!
2:22 If the bolt has only 2 long flats on the head it was a tee slot bolt used to hold something to a milling/drilling table.
9:04 That is a nicely cut circle---Not the peanut butter cup slug you usually get.
Cracking find on the old cans n oh boy that was a shank for sure
The factory probably produced the cans
i like how hes still supprised when he finds another can
What's amazing is alot of cans in the water ( you wonder why there not thrown into the trash)!!! { bet there is a few files in there, probably from that building}.
Helps the environment from taking alot of metal from the rivers and different places you go. Say safe. 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome finds today all the Beer Cans and Files
Bet that 1st Bud can is worth some money !! I know you have found tons of files at that place. I bet knife makers would buy them.
It is no wonder that factory is no more given the employees were probably drinking on the job, ditching their tools in the canal and having drunken prison like knife fights. Would have been an interesting place to work. I kind of missed this spot it has been a while.
🤣
Hes doing a great thing for his Community
The files return! Those cans are pretty sweet.
What is test for ken
Back to the beer and file factory. Great video and awesome start to my day. Those beer cans made me thirsty gonna run out and grab a bud of my own
Oh wow my grandma and grandpa used to drink Schlitz way back in the 70s I was born 1969 and I remember my grandmother and grandfather buying that all the time they couldn't go to the neighborhood grocery store with out buying a case or 2 lol 😂 I'm 52 years old now wow so long ago good memory 🤣
Loving the beer cans. Always a great spot!
Just a piece of advice Fisher, here in southern Pennsylvania we know all about Schlitz. If you drinks Schlitz it'll give you the shits most definitely. Beware the Schlitz!!
Me and my grandpa could make knifes out of those and he could make some cool Handles with deer antlers
You should put a gopro on the magnet so we can see what's underwater 😄
THIS
Yay its the file factory...... bingo time.... can, nut, bolt, file, tool...
That water looks pretty green from algae ,so Oxygen levels are probably low due to bacteria breaking down algae and other organics. A low Oxygen level in water can under certain conditions help to preserve fragile metal objects like steel beer cans . Those cans are old enough that they predate aluminum as the predominant metal for beer/soda cans . Pretty neat find actually.
They drank the beers as they threw the files in feller. Gold Mine tho bro!
Your perfect can (the beer can, not your backside) isn't as old as the others. It has a pop top. The older ones needed a can opener (triangle openings)
and I think you caught one of those openers a few shows back.
Holy crap that's a lot of beer cans! Someone hopefully was drinking them after work at the factory and not during work. l🤣🤣
Thats awesome!! Good job cleaning up 👏
I love your hobby😊😇🥰👌
You make me happy when your happy finding anything
Love those old cans!
You can use the ones with holes like a secret money compartment in a garage
Amazing finding all those beer cans! And congratulations on that perfect one. Cheers 🍺🍺
Awesome finds man

Him: *has a tea or coffee in his hand* There wasn't much of there some I'm making my way over here.
Me: *mAkInG mY wAy DoWnToWn-*
My wife stole my kids
I'm going to jump off
*A Bridge*
How many files do you have now
6:49 if im not mistaken i think that metal thing is used for sparpening knives i also have one of these
Awesome can collection thats incredible the condition they're in
I'm studying to become an ornithologist and I'd say that is a flight feather however I can't determine what bird its from.
Nice find with the cans
This mans a legend, he inspired me to start magnet fishing. I love you, keep up the great work man!!!!!!!!!!
I love your enthusiasm and I remember my dad telling me that pure brass is not magnetic.
I love these videos and kids do two so im get them a magnet so we can magnet fish!
I came across your videos and the excitement in your voice got me curious so I sat and watched a few next thing I know I find myself buying a magnet off Amazon and I’ll let you know what happens.
❤️

I really love this kind of video's🥰
❤️
So it’s been a while since he caught a file, but understand he’s still finding cans, to add to his magnet fish pile
😆
4:25 it should be called beer lake 😂😂😂😂
Those cans will take a "ultrasonic" cleaning, it's freaking easy, there's a video about it, you need a bucket, water, detergent and a orbital sander
So you get excited over old cans. Holy Cow
