    Tom Hause is excellent at laying concrete. He knows what he is doing and not interested in cutting corners! Most residential concrete contractors couldn't spell compaction and could care less (realize there are others that conduct themselves at a professional level and hopefully if you are one of those contractors you will agree and not be offended). Concrete will cover so many flaws on its own until time tells the tale!! Sure Tom is not inexpensive but probably does not charge what he and his crew is truly worth---No He's Not My Wife's Brother!

    I sell wood heaters through my business and wood heaters are the best return on investment compared to electric or gas/ propane. If you buy wood in bulk or process your own. One point you didn’t mention was that a piece of wood burnt in a modern fireplace produces less emissions than if it was to rot in the forest, so they meet the green credentials that some people appreciate.

    Morning Mike,
    Nice to see you and Tom enjoying your day. Probably stopped for either breakfast or lunch along the road and share a meal. I use to go to woodworking sales with my neighbor and like a 2nd father until I figured out I could buy new for their prices. Some guy told me that there are 2 types of bidders. Those at the bottom who know EXACTLY what the item is worth and those at the top who have the "king swingin' dicke" mentality. I quit going a long time ago. Yea, it was fun to go, but usually a total waste of time. Like Mike iterated, no real deals here. Might as well buy new. Owning equipment when you can rent it and not need to store, maintain or insure it for that once every year or 2 use.
    This wasn't quite the same quality auction as that last offbreed Chinese crap you showed us. Looked like HE had a lot of high end equipment in inventory still worth tens of millions and more I'm sure. 😊

    Heated Vest is Best thing EVER! 🙂, really works well, (i use milwaukee). This way, you can put it under any jacket you want. If you get a heated jacket or sweatshirt you gotta stick with that always. Sweatshirt you cant layer easily, arms get bunched up inside a jacket. Vest allows for flexibility.

    Hey Mike. I was watching the same auction. And you aren’t unrealistic. The prices were just stupid high. I was watching many of the skid steer and excavator buckets, and many attachments. Majority of them went for what you can buy new anywhere you go before you added the 12% buyer fee. There was some decent deals on the equipment but I wasn’t in the market for that stuff
