    i've been doing this in south florida since 74. I just picked up two tool boxes with tools in them. I bought a 85 C-30 for $110 and I've been using that for 8 years now.

    Ouch! Looks like time to get a truck with a 8' bed! The thing with the cord, foot pedal and air hose is a device for precision dispensing of fluids and is used in manufacturing, for example when a half drop of locktite or oil is needed. Besides, who doesn't need an air hose?

    It’s too bad you trashed that grill at the very beginning. Most times it’s just the Venturi tubes that need to be replaced. I have picked him up gently, added new tubes for 20 bucks and turned around and sold the grills for over 100. Plus I have one of my own that I kept, I have been using it for over five years. Still going strong. Sideburner and all.

      I nearly did that to someone one day. He had moved away a bit to chat to his neighbour. Bugalugs here jumps out to grab his edger and he came running over "HEY!" 😂 He wasn't happy but how was I to know. Worse though, I once spotted some great stuff, you know what's coming now don't you 😀 an awesome heavy duty toolbox with tools, industrial vacuum, tradies rechargeable radio. Cut the cord from the vac, was putting the other stuff in the boot when this tradie came from a few houses down. Yep, not for verge collection lol 😊 Omg I was so embarrassed and felt terrible, particularly since I'd cut the cord on the vac. He was really good about it, said he could rewire it, but ever since that happened, I make damn sure there are no tradies within 2 blocks 😂

    It is a GREAT day! Some of the electronics make me salivate!. The two things with three layers of copper wire windings are called "variacs" used to control voltage to something under test. Available in all kinds of sizes! The mystery box with the two pressure gauges on it is for precisely dispensing materials, such as oil, grease, locktite, glue, and so on. The product to dispense goes into a cylinder resembling a syringe with a tiny brush, or blunt needle of whatever size. Very popular in production, and always puts out what you have it set for, using compressed air to push the syringe. It has been a long while since I set one up for production, but I remember the squeal from accounting when we sent in the PO for a half dozen. The soldering stations are also rather nice, great for small work! Let me know if you have plans to sell the other small stuff, and what you have. I've been retired for over 9 years now, and still don't to get away from the hardware!

    I used to know someone that did scrapping. They had a big shed that was split in half. On one side was a work bench and tools to fix or disasemble things and 50 gallon barrels for all the stipped down wire. The other side was for all the scrap until they took it in. They had another shed for anything they were keeping for themselves or to sell. The sheds were to keep all the stuff out of their yard so it wouldn't become an eyesore and get neighbor complaints. Happy hunting.
