YAH,DON'T APOLOGIZE FOR DUMPING THE POISON! Fine pile of them treasure hoard, my Crazy Canadian Bohemian Cousin! Only wish to get that blessings! Editing time. Can't wait to find out the cash cow segment of your hard labor. Show us that skrilla! THAT WAS AWESOME, NIIIIIICE!
I drain my compressors and cut them open for the copper. As long as you have a thin blade on your grinder it takes 10mins from start to finish. As the coppers been lubricant ed it's easy to take out.
The thing with selling scrap at the peak price - is that we never know when the peak price is until we've missed it!! Still a pretty good cash-in mate, well done 💪👍😊
M8 magnetic stainless has different nums and different prices , it would be wise to have your scrap metal yard test the stainless , before assuming that just steel. 300 series is usually not magnetic , but when it gets forced or suffers friction becomes slightly magnetic. Keep up the good work. God bless y'all.
More specifically, 200/300 series non magnetic stainless (most grades but not all) develop magnetic martensite when cold worked. Put simply, if the piece of stainless isn’t flat/straight and is bent or formed in some way like the curves in a sink or a bent pipe/tube then it becomes weakly magnetic. The composition doesn’t change though just the crystal structure so it’s still worth the same price
The new Mayor in my SMALL-ISH hometown made “dumpster diving “ ILLEGAL and can get ticketed for it … and I KNOW that’s one of the best places to look for scrap and goodies .. gas at 4$USD /gal. too expensive to just drive around and look - but I’ll def stop and pick stuff up - I scored some aluminum gutters in a ditch just yesterday but dang my scrap run do NOT look like this 😂 only made 30$ on my run this week (I just do this on the side) .. my yearly #s don’t look too bad - but you absolutely kill it Thub! Love seeing people recycle
Thub, looking forward to the compressor scrap out. They’re too messy for me. Also when you do street scrapping, Check out new home/condo sites. I find a lot of 10 and 12 gauge romex in open tops among other things. Enjoy your vids! Tc
Drink's like that are best dumped they're just garbage. Thank you for dumping them. Enjoyed the video and been loving all the uploads enjoy watching them after working my dead end job. Also I love the the CFD take's all old house hold pain and stuff like that such a handy thing to have.
What a treat a second video! Be safe. Great ideas for repressing scrap. Do you do any metal art or repairing for reuse. Cold weather fun inside where it is warm.
my car has been down for over a month with misfires so the scrap game flat-lined in an instant but I love getting my fix here. Inspired me to get my first sawzall actually, god what a good tool it's been
I found 4 pairs of those red Ritco/Stelco Vice grips in a dumpster, 2 of the small 200 size, 1 pair of the big heavy duty 24' and a medium 10' along with 5lbs of brass objects, animal figurines, 2lb brass vase, some antique Birks Regency Plate silver plated spoons and a little copper lid for a tea cup
The fire departments take old fluids? Did I hear that right? Here they combined the bottle depots with electronics and fluid waste collection. And those more creative ways of which you speak - every dumpster diver knows what that means - pitched illegally into a bin.
Now that's a good run. Been looking forward for this one! btw, you look full of energy / well rested 👌🏻 and now two videos a week started to spawn - no complains haha! 🥰
At around 2:00 mark, there was a big , dangerous capacitor in that AC junction box, please be careful around those my friend. They can apparently kill , or at the least give you a nasty surprise. Use a screw driver or something else with a good insulated handle to discharge them. I know it takes a few seconds but it’s a good habit. Don’t want my fellow racoon to get hurt , need his excellent videos in my life :)
Probably cause prices change all the time and they don’t want arguments from people coming in saying I saw this price for this metal on your website so you have to pay me that. Also scrapyards websites tend to be very simplistic in general, it’s not like a stock exchange
So that's the good way to do it? Hold the $0.25 brass piece in my hand and cut it with a 4-1/2" disc grinder, cut my fingers off and get them sewn back on for $30,000.00 thanks for that.
I’ve got a bench vice! Probably wouldn’t spend the time to use it on little stuff like this, but holding such items with a pair of channel-locks would be a good move
I do take them to the scrapyard, I didn’t realize I didn’t point out that these particular ones do not say “pcb free” on them. That’s something I mentioned in the last video where I found these, and my yard won’t buy them unless they’re pcb free
Oof, that’s kinda bad haha People always tell me the ballasts are worth it but I’ve never seen a “good” price for them. I only bring them in when I find a large number at once. Not worth the space keeping a bin imo. Though that does sound very very low, maybe that’s the price for the cancerous pcb ones
Calling artificial sweeteners "poison" is pretty goofy, tbh. I drink artificial sweeteners like Sucralose and Aspertame all the time and have for over a decade now, and it has not harmed me at all. In fact, it probably saved my life, as it basically eliminated a lot of the excess sugar I would have otherwise been drinking. That said, evidence shows that artificial sweeteners are perfectly fine for most people. What is dangerous, however, is alcohol, added sugars, and even natural sugars like freshly-squeezed fruit juice. That junk spikes your insulin levels and can even increase your risk for heart disease
Yeah that does make sense, and thank you for explaining! My objection to them isn’t based on any personal experience, more that even after humans consuming them for so many years we still have just as many studies proving they are harmful as studies proving the opposite. I can understand how they could be useful if traditional sugars need to be avoided but with no solid evidence for or against, I still view them as a risk
@@thubprint I am glad you are OK with the criticism ^_^ thank you! That said, you might be able to find some studies that show minor negative effects of large amounts of Aspertame on the body, but most of the research is observational, and not cause-and-effect. Correlation does not equal causation. Some studies (Many of which paid for by people with a vested interest against "artificial" sweeteners) claim that people who drink Aspertame-sweetened beverages are more likely to have diabetes, for instance. But is it that Aspertame /causes/ diabetes? Or is it that people with diabetes are more likely to consume beverages with no sugar in them? Most of the data on that is not really clear, but the FDA and the ESFA both agree with the science that Aspertame is safe for consumption in moderation. And especially safer than foods with added "natural" sugars. Sucralose, on the other hand, has basically zero studies that show that it has a negative impact on the body. Only one study has been shown to cause a change in the gut microbiome, but that study was taken out of context, as literally everything you eat changes the gut microbiome. Hundreds of srudies have been done over decades with the WHO, FDA, and more agreeing that it is safe for consumption even well above the Daily Recommended Allowance. So while drinking water is always best, consuming non-caloric sweeteners like Aspertame and Sucralose are perfectly fine for the vast majority of people. It is far less of a risk than eating cookies, drinking alcohol, or living in a city.
Two in a week
You're spoiling us dude
Prices getting better
A well deserved cash out. For your benefit, let's hope the garage doesn't stay empty for too long. 👍
I’m gonna keep trying to empty it! Way too many projects in here haha
love environment

Dude! Feel free to go ahead and brag! That was great haul. Job well done Sir.
Good scrapping
5 videos in 2 weeks! This has been an awesome run.

Great video
Thanks Great Video
I remember watching you gather some of that stuff!!! Super cool that I get to see you cash it in.
Those scrap yards must know your voice.
The thing with selling scrap at the peak price - is that we never know when the peak price is until we've missed it!! Still a pretty good cash-in mate, well done 💪👍😊
Hey Chris, good to see you here👍. NN
@@noddynoodle7060 And you Noddy! 😃👍
Nice run!
Awesome run
Great video as always thub!!!! Keep doing the thing bro!!!
Nice scrap run
That free drop off of hazardous materials is a great idea but here in my area we don’t got! 🤪
Great payday! 👍
God bless 🙏🏼🇺🇸🇨🇦

Thanks Thub looking forward to the stripper video Ha haha hope it's chilly!!!; )
Maan . I would have loved that big sink. It would make the best dog washing sink! Great batch of goodies, Thub.
Awesomeness !!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice!
Empire metals rocks. Crazy your in yyc!
Yes that aspartame is bad stuff, look for the numbers 900-965 on the products you buy if you want to avoid it.
Most major auto parts places in the US will take used oil. Usually for free. Just call or ask when you buy for your next oil change.
you can scrap out ballasts, Recon takes em.
Ooh nice cash in
Fun 🙂
Drink's like that are best dumped they're just garbage. Thank you for dumping them. Enjoyed the video and been loving all the uploads enjoy watching them after working my dead end job. Also I love the the CFD take's all old house hold pain and stuff like that such a handy thing to have.
Really enjoy the videos Thub! Great content! Thanks
Have you ever done any videos on accounting and the inevitable tax issues? Always loads of information to learn from, thanks.
GOD loves you
you can never be sure what the absolute peak will be anyways
What a treat a second video! Be safe. Great ideas for repressing scrap. Do you do any metal art or repairing for reuse. Cold weather fun inside where it is warm.
Copper prices here go up and down a lot too. That sucks.
my car has been down for over a month with misfires so the scrap game flat-lined in an instant but I love getting my fix here. Inspired me to get my first sawzall actually, god what a good tool it's been
Excellent! Keep up the good work
Thanks Thub!! I really enjoy your vids!! They really help out and keep me motivated..Great job my friend and keep it up!!!
Wow, that's a fine payday sir! I hope you have a melt video coming up 🙂
most auto part stores offer free oil disposal
I found 4 pairs of those red Ritco/Stelco Vice grips in a dumpster, 2 of the small 200 size, 1 pair of the big heavy duty 24' and a medium 10' along with 5lbs of brass objects, animal figurines, 2lb brass vase, some antique Birks Regency Plate silver plated spoons and a little copper lid for a tea cup
That sounds like an awesome bin!
thanks for showing the prices, so i know the current prices
The fire departments take old fluids? Did I hear that right?
Here they combined the bottle depots with electronics and fluid waste collection. And those more creative ways of which you speak - every dumpster diver knows what that means - pitched illegally into a bin.
Good work mate, love watching these sort of videos where you tear everything down, keep on keeping the dream alive, cheers :)
Copper was $5.01 USD at its peak
Neat! 😁
Is that the same brass gear hanging up on the peg board from that cast aluminum bit with all the grease in it from a year ago???
Now that's a good run. Been looking forward for this one! btw, you look full of energy / well rested 👌🏻 and now two videos a week started to spawn - no complains haha! 🥰
You let that pile of copper go as #2? You are leaving some $$$ on the table for the scrap yard to pick up, they will sift through it quick.
What does all the artificial sweetener do to the poor worms?

How would you discharge it with a screwdriver?
@@joshp6061 jump the terminals
Never understand why scrapyard dont post prices at there website. It will save them the trouble
Probably cause prices change all the time and they don’t want arguments from people coming in saying I saw this price for this metal on your website so you have to pay me that. Also scrapyards websites tend to be very simplistic in general, it’s not like a stock exchange
Great video Brother how’s the weather down in Calgary mornings here are pretty chilly gals we haven’t got any frost yet lol good old Alberta 😂🤘🏻👍🏻
Does your yard have a price for magnetic stainless? If you had any how would you identify it?
Poison you put straight in the ground lol
Wow, Here's what my local yard is paying as of 10/07/22 😥
(1) Cans $.45/ lb.
(2) Aluminum clean $.30/ lb.
(3) Alum Car Wheels ( not chrome or truck )-must be clean $0.70/ lb.
(4) 304 stainless $.20/ lb.
(5) 316 stainless $.50/ lb.
(6) Yellow brass $1.70/ lb.
(7) Red Brass $2.15/ lb.
(8) Clean brass shells$1.60/ lb.
(9) Clean Alum Rad $.25/ lb.
(10) Cop Alum Rad $1.25/ lb.
(11) Auto Rad $1.55/ lb.
(12) Copper #1 $2.75 / lb.
(13) Copper #2 $2.60 / lb.
(14) Bare Bright Copper $2.80 /lb.
(15) Insulated #1 80% RECOVERY $1.60/ lb.
(16) Lead $.30/ lb.
Hmm.. that’s not too too bad.. stainless and bare copper are a little weak but if that’s USD it sounds comparable to most other yards
couldn't help but notice that the ac unit is on wheels. How does that work? where would it bleed off heat?
If it’s the portable one I’m thinking of, they have an exhaust tube that is supposed to be pointed out a window
So that's the good way to do it? Hold the $0.25 brass piece in my hand and cut it with a 4-1/2" disc grinder, cut my fingers off and get them sewn back on for $30,000.00 thanks for that.
Healthcare is free in canada, still not the greatest way to cut
please get a bench vise. I makes me real nervous watching you use a grinder free hand like that.
I’ve got a bench vice! Probably wouldn’t spend the time to use it on little stuff like this, but holding such items with a pair of channel-locks would be a good move
Dont you take ballast into scrap metal recycling also? Ballast definitely pay for us.
I do take them to the scrapyard, I didn’t realize I didn’t point out that these particular ones do not say “pcb free” on them. That’s something I mentioned in the last video where I found these, and my yard won’t buy them unless they’re pcb free
Recon told me 1 cent/lb for ballast. i dont even know if its worth it hahahah
Oof, that’s kinda bad haha
People always tell me the ballasts are worth it but I’ve never seen a “good” price for them. I only bring them in when I find a large number at once. Not worth the space keeping a bin imo. Though that does sound very very low, maybe that’s the price for the cancerous pcb ones
