Thanks for watching! For more mega dump finds with Tim ⭐️ ua-cam.com/video/Bjsf6yjovKA/v-deo.htmlsi=9Z3MPjXltHcNFW-h ⭐️
What a lovely man your dad is! Can’t wait to see you man cave shed all finished and organized. Very cool you and your dad can build stuff like that!
I’m a lucky guy! He refuses to help me with my mega heavy patio though 😂
Simon your Esso can shelf is ingenious. You are so creative. Love your shed and your Dad is brilliant. Thank you so much for this fantastic video. Cheers.
Thanks so much LS 👍🏻🐾🧡I’m lucky to have him
Corona was the fizzy pop you could get delivered by the pop man wasn’t it?
So cool watching the finds get older as he dug down. Clever display!
Thanks Si, another fab video.
Yes, the pop man came round weekly and we had pop with our Sunday lunch - Corona came in various flavours: lemonade, limeade, cherryade, cream soda - mind you, that was over 60 years ago!
Cheers Eliza! Very interesting 👍🏻🐾🧡
Yep , as kids , we would go down our road asking the locals if we could have the empties , and then take them back to the local shop and get the thruppence refund on the bottle . lol you could get loads of sweets for thruppence in those days.
I'm 70 so yes, a long time ago . @@silevee
I love seeing your Dad working with you. I lost my Dad 18 years ago today. He was my fishing buddy and had me helping make improvements to my parents home even after I was married and had 3 kids. I have a brother but was never interested helping like I was. Your Dad appears to be a wonderful man. ❤️🇺🇸
Cheers Cheryl, yes he’s an inspiration
Your relationship with your dad is beautiful . I was a dads girl and he taught me diy, took me fishing and we watched footy matches together at the local ground , not to mention stuff about cars , which has saved me loads of money over the years . He's not with us now , : ( and i really miss him not being here to guide me through the jobs i'm not sure of . Make the most of being with your dad , it's the best time of your life, with loads of happy memories. x
Well said Sue and spot on👍🏻🐾🧡
Thanks for the birds, a pretty little robin, and some more forrest ones singing.😍
Daisy and Nelson are so natural lovely cats😘
And the ESSO artbox so creative, nice one.
(😅awfull screwing tecnique, only on camera bottle capping😇)
Haha Ruth 😂
Can’t wait to see the Mudcave once completed! You must be excited to get all your treasures in there.
I am. Cheers Cory 👍🏻🐾🧡
How good is your Dad. He brought tears to my eyes. He is a treasure. I lost my beloved Dad two years ago and I miss him terribly. That Mud Cave is looking AWESOME. I always love your upcycles. So clever. Sending big big cuddles and scratches to Nelly and Daisy, the stars of the show 😹xx Teresa ❤🇦🇺
Nice to see Steve, hope he’s doing good
He is Patty 👍🏻🐾🧡
How cool to dig to have your own mud cave..and work with your dad..kind of nice to meet your family..awesome finds,especially the embossed bottles..and an epic upcycle! Wow! hello to Daisy and Nelson.
Cheers Jo. The cats say hi!
As someone who built houses it was interesting to see how differently it is done in the UK from here in the US. I love that you used reclaimed materials. Thank you Simon!
Well it’s just an outhouse / shed really. Lots of ways to make one I reckon 👍🏻🐾🧡
Pretty sure Findlater is pronounced Finndlatter, sadly! Also, the wee robin was hoping for you to throw it worms you found while digging. If you give them some, they'll stick around and come really close to you, they're gallus wee birds :) Big love from Scotland, as always. Jen. Edit: Just finished the video, love that upcycle, your ability to be able to repurpose the weirdest things is making me very envious!
Cheers Jonny. I believe the Robin is Englands nation bird. They are super friendly and cute, unlike many English 😂
Biscuit & tea tins with a crown on are made in Carlisle Cumbria was called " metal box now bevcan " been going since 1888 & still going
Cool
So much loveliness crammed into one episode!!! ❤ My heart can’t cope!!
🧡🧡🧡
Simon you indeed are a magical builder. Who would of thought of that except for you. No task to small nor to hard.
It took a while, but got there in the end, what with everything else I do x thanks for your support 👍🏻🐾🥲
Corona sold large bottle of soft drink, door to door, until at least the 1970s. Their cream soda was a particular favourite of mine.
Cool!!
My grandma had one of those meat grinder! So cool! That bottle Tim gave you with that beautiful debossing is beautiful!!!
Lovely wasn’t it?
Awww matching boo boo's . Love this, Our dads are our heroes from childhood to forever 🥰🥰
Very true!!
I think this is going to be one of my favorite videos. You found so much cool stuff at that dump and then the way you transformed the Esso can... You are like a magician! And I love that your dad was in this video and how great the man cave is coming along. Can't wait to see it done and all the cool stuff you're going to make in it. Xo
Thanks so much 👍🏻🐾🧡
Excellent job on your building, My Grandfather was an A plus Carpenter he built 3 houses and my Moms general store, which all still lived in today. But unfortunately it stopped with him, I know nothing about carpentry.:( Nice to see your Dad helping you out. I hope Steve is well now!
Cheers Sherry yes Steve is doing very well thank you 👍🏻🐾🧡
I still have one of those meat grinders/mincers that my parents had from 40 years ago. LOL Love your dad!!
Corona pop was all the rage in the 60s, used to deliver it once per week when I was about 8, that's 61 years ago 👍
Loved meeting your Dad and seeing photos of wee Simon with your wheelbarrow. Can't wait to see the mudcave finsihed.
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
Hi Mudlover,Glad to see you.Wishing you find something great.blessings
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
I always enjoy watching you and Tim dig in old dumps. This one, weirdly, brought back fond memories of me exploring old sheds, lean tos, and fire pits at both my grandparents, and great grandparents houses back in the early 80s, when I was a tiny treasure hunter aged under 10. 😂 Though less snakes and spiders at your dump dig. Clearly an Aussie thing.😂
And I LOVED the upcycle in this video. Utterly brilliant idea, well thought out, and perfectly executed. As someone who also tries to use and re-use absolutely everything in my art and everyday life, it's always awesome seeing I'm not alone in my passion for zero waste creativity. ❤
Well said! I’d love to see your work! 👍🏻🐾🧡
@@Sifinds Thanks, my profile pic is some of my work. 😊 It's made from gem stone beads from 2nd hand jewellery (some broken) that I buy from charity op shops. This piece was bought by a lovely lady over in Florida, USA. And, if you are curious and not just being polite 🤣 I have a very basic video on what I do on my channel, and can be found on instagram with same name.
@@craftilyrecycled awesome. Will check it out 👍🏻🐾🧡
What a lovely gentle gent your Father is, 😊😊
He’s a legend
The upcycle is epic. Well done Si! Your Dad is so adorable. I miss Steve with the H3
Love always seeing Nelly & Daisy. Thanks for making my Sunday 😁
Aw my pleasure Thekla👍🏻🐾🧡
What a handsome Dad you have and you didn’t fall far from the tree. Covid lockdown was awful but you built a mud cave and I started painting landscapes again. Some good came out of it.
Aw thanks so much JoEllen. I’m blushing ☺️ Yes some good did happen x
Love your Dad's sense of humor!
Me too! 👍🏻🐾🧡
What a nice Dad. The picture of you with your little wheel barrow look at how he adores you. Better thank God many don't have that. I did my Dad was the best.
Cheers. I don’t take that for granted x
You are such an incredible artist and quite the engineer as well. I cannot even imagine how your brain works but I am so glad you share it with us. As an art lover, I feel lucky I found your channel and can watch some of your work.
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
It's a sponge mincer
How adorable is your dad😊
He’s wonderful
Hi Si! I know that this is an older video but I just came across it now. Believe it or not I always thought that Tim was your dad! Thanks for introducing us to your family and more of your history today.
I really loved seeing that beautiful little bird with its bright colors, especially against the green branches. Thank you for sharing that, as well as the lovely woodpecker sounds.
I am sitting here at my table watching this video my thoughts 💭 are of how you and your dad we’re enjoying building this MudCave . You are both so sweet toward each other as you put a bandaid on your dad’s thumb 👍🏻. What a beautiful scene that took my breath away! After he had finished you hugged him for all he helped he gave!
Si I was very touched with you and your dad please cherish these moments with him. My dad passed away and I miss him so much. I have only a few great memories with him that will stay with me forever.
You did a fantastic work on the gas can, I wasn’t sure what you would do to up cycle this rusty, torn and tattered thing! I am in awe of your skills. What a wonderful mindset you have with all of your creations!
Steve is a great friend to help you with the roof it’s hard work, but he sure did it. Kudos to all hands on deck! Blessings to all of you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜
Thanks so much Susan, I will cherish Dad x
Great upcycle. Nice to see your father, the whole video was wonderful.
Aw thanks Kath 👍🏻🐾🧡
My dad drinks his tea that quick too,it will be red hot and he downs it,asbestos mouth 😂
That was so nice of your dad to come over and give you a hand. You guys did a fabulous job doing your little mud shed up!! Love how you made the Esso cannister into a piece of art that was so cool. The way you used the bicycle pedal gives me some ideas!! It's going to be great once it's all finished then you could put all your treasures in there from your mud larking!!
Great video. Si!!🌟🌟
❤ Greetings to beloved Richard (DAD ) . Awesome video with handsome findings and a super lovely upcycle.
Loved the amber colors whisky bottle .
You gave a good time to my memory lane .... my DAD .
With love from SAM
Guwahati, Assam, India 🇮🇳 ♥️
Cheers Sam! 🏃🏿♂️ 😊
Hey Si, Dad, Nellie, Daisy and the girls. Amazing well done and beautiful. Both mud cave, and can most crafty.❣️🇨🇦👍😎
Cheers Maz 👍🏻🐾🧡
Can’t wait to see the Mudcave full of all your goodies. Top job Papa-finds & Si-finds.
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
I recognized the meat grinder right away. When my Grandparents came to America and during the depression my Grandfather would grind meat and make homemade German Sausage.He would sell it door to door. We still have the grinder and used to have a get together every Oct 21st to celebrate my Dads birthday by making sausage. We still do it every 5 years or so. My Dad has been gone for 26 years.
That’s the sweetest story!
Tudo perfeito neste programa: os achados, os amigos, seu pai, a construção, os gatos e a criatividade.💚💕
That’s what I fell 👌🏼👌🏼 Mesmo sentimento 🫶🏼
Thanks so much Maria 👍🏻🐾🧡
Hi Si, luv your vids, but especially the upcycles. You are so talented!! The MudCave is so cool!!
Cheers Mudlover!👍🏻🐾🧡
😂 Where there is a will there is a way. Need to put a string on that and just drag it behind you😊
Great to meet dad
The older cans were thicker and lasted longer. Now every can is thinner.
That looks beautiful ❤️
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
I put up a 10 by 24 foot shed..lifetime roof..raised on blocks and anchored well to ground..got pecky cypress from a tear out for interior wall..insulated in walls and roof..wired for electricity..i paid for some of the materials with money I got from scrap found metal detecting😃..great job on yours there Si👍
Pete, you brought back fond memories of my own Dad who salvaged picky cypress from an old barn in North Carolina to make interior paneling for his mountain get away house. Never heard anyone else refer to the wood till you did.
Cheers Pete👍🏻🐾🧡
It’s Steve’s Glorious Hair! Once thought to never be seen again!
Haha!
Very talented artist you are, your Dad was lovely guy. Great video Si.
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
That’s a brilliant upcycle!! I loved it! Only you! You’re delightful to watch and so clever at everything you do! Love all your videos, ideas, music, humor and creations. And love your videos with sweet Nicola 😉. You two have a special bond. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Thanks Mary! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Oh and your oil can is actually a petrol tin! They were widely used before WW2 when everyone switched over to the much more practical jerrycan based on the German design.
Hey Si,
Your a lucky lucky man to have spent so much excellent time with your old man and have the photos and videos to cherish I wasn’t so lucky but made up for it twice and three times over with my three sons who are now age 24,25 and 26 a day doesn’t go by that I realise how lucky I am. Again cherish your time with your dad you can see just how proud of you he is.
Wise words Nick 👍🏻🐾🧡
Simon! The rubbish in your garden! 😮😂 Your Dad is so lovely, you're very lucky 😊 and the upcycle is excellent
It’s all treasure!!! 😂
Your Dad is a sweetheart love the refurbished can Your so talented 😊❤
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
Heath Robinson creativity together with subtle artistry makes a great combo so loved this.nice den too!
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
Think we need to have a “Shed Off” competition Si 😋 also my wee Dusty Cat got very interested in the telly when she heard Nelly meowing 🐈⬛ x fee (Scotland)
Haha we do!
Brilliant Si.Some more nice finds.👍
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
Making memories with your dad is the best!!! Even though I was his daughter, my dad taught me all this stuff also. I was welding when I was 12 years old. Those are times that I cherish to this day!! And at 89 years old he is still teaching me things! And what the heck did you call that band-aid you gave your dad for his cut?? Great video Si !
Lol. It’s a plaster 🩹
@@Sifinds
Welcome Si and hello Tim. Looking forward to this!
Alright Emma! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Cool video. Awww the cats. ❤
The mudcave is shaping up great. That's so touching your Dad taking you along and still passing on his skills. My husband's Dad did the same with him. Saves us $$$. Don't have to call a handyman. He has no one too pass it on to. We have two girls and neither one of them are interested. They're in their mid 20s. C'est la vie.
Aw that’s kinda sad, maybe the grandkids will learn some skills x
That is the coolest little cabinet ever 😎 😍
Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Yes, I remember the Corona truck coming around our Close. We got crème soda, cola, orange, lemonade and ginger ale. We made our own ginger beer.
Cool!
My Grandmother used one of those meat grinders/mincers. It was made out of coated iron and heavy. My daughter has it now as a collectible in the family. 😍🇺🇸
Very cool!
You are a mad scientist! But I love it. I enjoy your creativity and mudlarking
What a video - full of goodies 😀Great find that old can + you're an upcyclegenius. Wonderful to "meet" your dad & watch you build the man cave .. 😍
Thanks so much👍🏻🐾🧡
You are just too clever ❤what a lovely dad you have too
Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Love the b-roll shot of the moss-covered boot! This is a fantastic video. Your father is a lovely man. The rotating Esso can curio shelf is an ingenious assemblage.
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
Great Vid Thanks.Just wanted to let you know I have a cat named Maggie Pie and she is the Joy of my life So when i see how much you love your animals i wanted you to be aware of boards with nails or screw .Do NOT leave them sticking Upwards Ever. They can step on them and hurt for weeks ,their little paws I know because i am a carpenter and when i bring used lumber home I place all boards nails DOWN until it gets used.I'm sure you already know this but i thought i would mention this as i love all animals as well Jim..M from ONT.
Corona man use to call on Friday night with our spruce and as we it called back in the 1960s and pick up the empties , dandelion and burdock was my favourite
Cool! 👍🏻🐾🧡
I think you made that upcycle look easier than it must have been. You are a genius figuring out how to incorporate the pedal to rotate it. Well done 👏 😀
Thanks so much Claire 👍🏻🐾🧡
Either of the two rust buckets at a minute and a half in would look awesome petrified in resin.
I love your up cycling, whoop whoop ❤
Great idea. Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
The Esso can was brilliantly re reconfigured.
Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Fun dig! I love sitting in my chair and going on adventures with you. Thanks for the history and smiles!
Cheers Hazel👍🏻🐾🧡
That brass piece looks like a top to a container. The noisy woodpecker 😊. I find that Corona bottle so pretty, and the little triangular one also. 😂, What a pucker Tim. Oh, how wonderful, father and sun working together. Sweet memories. Great to see Steve. Another awesome upcycle Si 👍
Cheers Coni👍🏻🐾🧡🧡
I think it is awesome that you used so many reclaimed items for your Mudcave, not surprised though. Great spinable Esso can shelf, I love that you used a bike pedal. Some of my cabinets have two plates with marbles between for a DIY lazy susan. Have a great week Si!!
That’s a cool idea with the marbles!! Cheers Debbie👍🏻🐾🧡
I love that your cats obviously love you.
The feeling is mutual 🐈⬛ 🐈
Your dads a sweetie, love your man cave, and your use of a old bike pedal was brilliant 👍🏼
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
The build of the Mudcave was terrifying.
Why?
Your Dad is just wonderful!
He is!
Absolutely dazzled by that upcycle. You have outdone yourself. 🤩
Cheers Kerrie👍🏻🐾🧡
Hi Si! Great to see you on a Sunday morning.😊
Love the mud cave! Great to meet dad aka Richard. ❤
Cheers Donna👍🏻🐾🧡
21:17 we have two meat grinders one that is about 30 years old and another that belonged to my Grandma I think from the 1920's or 30's we still use the newer one!
Cool. I bet that could tell some stories
That was a real fancy upcycle -- above and beyond!!!
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
3:45 I'm sure that many others have pointed out there used to be Corona fizzy drinks, long before we got Corona beer over here! But that bottle was before my time - love it.
Cheers Chaz!👍🏻🐾🧡
Pictures of you with your dad reminds me of being 3ft tall dragging a sack of spuds behind my sad as he dug em up and my older brother threw em in in the 80s in the back garden 😆
Aw haha
The mudcave is superb!
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
'Meeting' your Dad explains your handiness with tools and definitely you two have the same smile. The upcycle is incredible! Your man shed is going to be great! I really like the idea of reusing the wood, especially how solid that wood looked! Very nice video Si, thanks for sharing. Does your Dad mudlark too? How did you get into larking?
Cheers Julian, no he doesn’t. But like to see what I’ve found. I went on a bike ride to the river one day, and just started searching. Found pottery and coins from the 1940s and I was hooked
Corona made pop.
I thought that too and it does... But there is Corona beer too. 👍
Yeah, it’s shaped like a pop bottle.
Interesting cheers 👍🏻🐾🧡
Oh my gosh your dad!! I may have a tiny crush, he is the cutest. I loved the pictures of you two together when you were a wee lilttle crumbsnatcher. So cute. Epic mini house, can I get s ticket to see it please :)
Haha. I’ll pass that on. Not bad for a 70 year old, not as fit as Mathew Modine tho 😜
You really are creative Si!
Your dad had a great time by the look of it as well.
Steve needs a hair cut. Haha.
Nothing could have been done without cat supervision.
Yes we both enjoyed the build!
ESSO = S.O. = Standard Oil. :D Cool creation! That's worth some money because it's unique and made with found items. Your dad is so sweet! He looks like he was a great dad your entire life, Si. XO
He was and still is!
Hi, watching you create ingenious upcycle artwork is very satisfying. I do want you to know that what you do is providing joy and satisfaction for many people! Thank you!
Thanks so much Sunny👍🏻🐾🧡
Your upcycle is so well done. So clever, everything fit together perfectly, impressive. 👏👏👏
Thanks so much Gigi. Miss you x😊
A citric acid soak works really well for taking rust off of painted metal. I always enjoy your finds.
Nice one. I’ll try that cheers 👍🏻🐾🧡
Esso cabinet looks great
Cheers Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Super video. Loved the shed construction with your Dad! Special times. xx
Thanks so much 👍🏻🐾🧡
Ingenious hun you never cease to amaze me with your up cycling 😊
Cheers Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
