Hi Brandon! I love how when you do your explorations I feel like I am walking right beside you very casually, just having a regular conversation. Thanks for risking bodily injury so we can come along!
This looks like it's family owned business because their house is not to far from the building company it kinda looks like it shouldn't be out in the woods but family owned and that's why it's across house❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ cool video
And industrial grade quality one's to boot. As a builder of guitars, any lost equipment like those, and the drill presses makes me nuts seeing them inactive. Things are built with purpose in mind, but then attrition comes along and... it is up to people to keep them useful. 🎸
What a cool video ! That old Ford Govt. truck and the Paystar inside, probably have less miles on than one would think. (and the oil slick under that Paystar say one thing alone: Detroit Diesel !)
Our Pastor fell in a septic tank. We was going Christmas caroling and it was dark. He didn’t see the hole and boom fell right in. lol we dug him back out!
Oh no, that's not good. But when life gives us funny and entertaining times like that which makes amazing stories. I just love it!! Thanks for the message and all your support! 🤩🤍🙏🏻
You see this a lot in America. Decay of yesterday and nobody seems to care. Looked like a beautiful homestead and factory. Many good jobs are lost forever. We need a new man in the office to make America great again.
There was a fine opportunity to make America great again ten years ago. Now this is another bait for people who are not smart and insightful. By the way, this abandoned and neglected area is more than forty years old. The old must be gone. That's it.
Why wouldn't someone have tried to salvage the equipment and trucks? Maybe the fire put an end to the business, especially if it wasn't insured for the value of the building??
What a cool explore. Maybe because we own our own business with our shop next to our home, makes me a little sad. And we had to rebuild because of a fire. Someone’s life efforts long gone. The snow was beautiful. Thanks for sharing. ❤
hi brandon i liked this explore very much lot of machinery left behind and the folk lifts i thought were pretty cool as well as that big truck awsome the bench drills looked good as well so much stuff left behind in time thanks for sharing another great explore brandon cheers mate and look forward to your next explore.
This place looks like it was some kind of machine shop. Those panels look like they went to a cnc machine. Cnc machines make parts from a program that is entered into the computer. Plus all the other drill presses and metal planers. That long thing on the roof was a weather vane/ lightening rod. If lightening hit that rod would take the hit from the lightening. We had them on our farm house and big barns. I can't believe all that expensive stuff was just left there to rot. Another good show my man! Keep up the good findings.
I used to work on the loading dock at the Minneapolis Star Tribune in the Heritage building which was built in 1982. In 2021 they still had a bunch of relics from the awesome original building that was erected in the 1800's and then demoed for its "more valuable" footprint. I could Immediately recognize all of the vintage and antique steel carts, tables, machinist chairs and any other furniture and surfaces from the past not only because they were still standing with little wear, but the colors used just aren't found anymore. I spent 2 years hauling 25 lb bundles of of the conveyor lines and I never tried of appreciating their existence. There were big metal boxes that had tops like an A-line roof that held little TV screens wit colorful plastic lights like you so aptly appreciated that also had toggle switches and buttons that looked like it came straight out of a 1960's Star Trek episode. Funny thing about the 80's is that it wasn't far from the 60's in technology appearance but these were state of the art and installed to replace my job when they first opened the plant. I'm told they used them up until the German company that produced the parts went out of business and took the only ability to manufacture the parts with them. I gotta say that in my 51 years of life this was the most corrupt business I've ever worked for, especially since our union is in on the take as it's a dive-bombing industry (tragically), but I'll forever be grateful for the experience and the opportunity to capture through even my crappy phone all of the details that I love about the past in this particular environment. After meditating on it for two years I knew it was well beyond the durability and aesthetic that attracts me to these objects and I finally came to terms that it because we are completely removed from the process today and are expected to interact with functions that we rely on without doing more than barely touching a screen. It's being sold to us as this ultimate luxury of modern life but it's costing us so much in exchange. We need those buttons, toggles, switches and buttons. We need the organic sound of the clicks and cranks. We need it because it adds Sense to what we are doing instead of relying blindly on it working and then throwing it away without the curiosity cured as to what happened to make it stop. There's an emptiness in the silent interaction with the glass and plastic world that we live in that is typically void of color and variation of artistic styling to the product. Why bother with all that when it's made to break down in a year, right? Speaking of, those drills and other machinery are particularly sad to see rusting away. I bet just about all of them would fire right up and last another entire lifetime with a restoration, unlike the machines that serious people won't even buy today because they Know they're garbage. The good news is the word hasn't fully spread so grandpa's heavy machinery and tools are usually free online because the kids don't want to have to heft them out or pay for them to be removed. It seems like it's only when we realize that we feel completely soulless that people will look up and say "Hey! This sucks!!" and want to do something about it. Hopefully.
That's for the amazing messages full of info and history and a great story 🤩🤍 means a lot to hear about others! Thanks for the messages and all your support! 🤩🤍
@@BrandonAbandoned, thank You for going out there and pointing out to all the people who otherwise may not have the opportunity to see and know how to appreciate the beauty and value of craftsmanship put into the things that are remaining that should be salvaged rather than discarded in order to preserve a history that is in threat of being forgotten.
😮 the dude about the priest falling in the hole it might be a good idea to leave some sort of info written where you are in case you don't come back 3:32
Whoa this one was intense- it's all so delapitaded . . . and all the machinery, the trucks. It is sad to think of the uselessness of it now. I would turn it around. I would fire it up. The past present and future co-mingle to create the now as a fantasy/possibility. Worth a thought... 🤔
The big drill press is a radial arm drill press and is worth some money. Big, heavy and hard to move unless you know what you are doing. Easy to tip it over on top of someone, but it looked undamaged, not like most of the rest of the machinery. The four or five smaller drill presses mounted on what looked like one table are from a mfg plant where they were doing assembly work. Each drill press would have one tool in it for assembly line type work.
Many years ago some of those things would have been worth big $$, even used. I'm talking about some of the construction equipment and that big camper. Strange all these things left to rot till they're useless; a waste.
Hey FYI -the two green machines near the red mack truck inside the building you thought were for metal fab were air compressors. The turbine doey you thought was what they may have been making was in fact a ceiling drop gas heater.
Lots of walls, old used up equipment, trash, and old dreams built, lived and finished. A remanent of a busy live not long ago. Stories lived never to be told again. It is sad to a old man that lived through those years, remembering the busy times that brought fulfillment To the lives there. But time does not stop. Things change, new lives are lived. Some for better some for less. Making new worlds , new things, new ways that will end also. Why did we think these things would always last, grow, get better. They return to earth as we will. Some sooner, some slowly, some already.
Bi actually it's in Canada. Ya I'm confused as to why I didn't go over and look at it more either. I may have to go back! Thanks for the message and your support! 🤩🤍
Dang bro I wish that I could send you an email I could go look at that I enjoy looking at old stuff like that if I can please let me know and I'll send you an email brother I really appreciate you good video
Thank you again for braving the weather! It’s crazy how all that equipment is just left to rot!
Something about abandoned places with half-finished projects is so haunting. Like time just stopped.
This was a great explore!! We love the really old decayed humble homes or buildings. That’s what built our country! 👍🏼🙏🏼🇨🇦
Hi Brandon 😊
Thanks for taking us along!!👍🧡
Hello 6'4" Explorer, thanks for sharing with us this virtual tour of that nice property! I love your videos. ❤
Hi Brandon glad to see you again on your exploring adventures with you.❤

Hello from Boston! Love your explorations! Looks trippy.. love it
What's happening Boston!!! 👊🏻❤️🤍💙
Thank you for the message and your support! 🤩
@BrandonAbandoned looking forward to exploring with you again! Great finds!
Those metal machines by the dump truck are air compressors
Yup I agree
And industrial grade quality one's to boot.
As a builder of guitars, any lost equipment like those, and the drill presses makes me nuts seeing them inactive.
Things are built with purpose in mind, but then attrition comes along and... it is up to people to keep them useful. 🎸
It was interesting! Loved it!
That building with truck inside looks in better condition than the other buildings.
What a cool video ! That old Ford Govt. truck and the Paystar inside, probably have less miles on than one would think. (and the oil slick under that Paystar say one thing alone: Detroit Diesel !)
Let's go! 🎉
Our Pastor fell in a septic tank. We was going Christmas caroling and it was dark. He didn’t see the hole and boom fell right in. lol we dug him back out!
😮
Nice work Brandon. These buildings were creepy.👍🆒
😱🤨😆
Oh no, that's not good. But when life gives us funny and entertaining times like that which makes amazing stories. I just love it!!
Thanks for the message and all your support! 🤩🤍🙏🏻
I don’t know many explorers that brave the weather like you do! Amazing! Thanks for all you do! 💜
Dat iemand dat zomaar allemaal achterlaat.Dat is toch gek.
Thnx voor de video
Thank you for the message and your support 🤍🤩

thank you❣Brandon🤩
Thank you very much for your donation and your support!! 🤩🤍❤️
That was 2 air compressors behind the truck, that aluminum bed on that dump is worth alot of money.
Why wouldn't someone have tried to salvage the equipment and trucks? Maybe the fire put an end to the business, especially if it wasn't insured for the value of the building??
Another great video from the man Brandon Abandoned, thanks for all your great work, we love these videos and for taking us along 😊
1 of ur best vids .I can't believe how people would leave all that machinery and aquitment. So crazy
Thank you very much 🤩🤍
#Brandon, my favorite was the snow covered trees and ice-cicles!
Just beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
I could just listen to your voice all day long! That accent!❤
Oh and thanks for the video 😊
Thank you very much 🤩
What a cool and interesting place. I like old trucks like this. Thanks for a another awesome and fascinating video, Brandon. 😊👍❤️
Wow thats alot of big equip ent going to waste.
What a shame that people have trashed the buildings and machinery. The big dump truck was nice until it was vandalized. SAD!
Definitely wonder if the fire is why it's abandoned..
Missed another live..
Dagnabbit...🙋♂️👍

now that looks cold bro those compressors and equipment is still worth a good bit of money to just leave to rot
that place would have been something. thanks for sharing . ❤ stay safe love ya
To the back left of the big red truck in the garage the two big units are aircompressors.

This 1 is strange..who leaves half million dollars in equipment.more or less.
Did you see the extension cord going to the metal hull boat,that's the trailer next to it that goes to it ,I'd live in it and would say someone does.
Good afternoon. Good to see you again.😊
All those boats are beyond repair.😢
Hello Brandon..and all hear tonight👋〰️〰️🏛🍮

I would turn it around.
I would fire it up.

Would be cool to go back in time to see when it was habitable.👍

Someone drove that truck into that column .
Strong floors to support that heavy equipment after fire
I wonder if that old TV may still work?
Missed this premiere. But catching it now.
Loved this one Brandon your amazing
That is an old Ford military truck.👍
wow what a place, too bad all that money sitting there in that machinery, the outrough music really fit this place i thought, great job..
Another great video.
Be safe and careful.😊👍🙏
Many years ago some of those things would have been worth big $$, even used. I'm talking about some of the construction equipment and that big camper. Strange all these things left to rot till they're useless; a waste.
So sad to see places like that abandoned.😢
Hey FYI -the two green machines near the red mack truck inside the building you thought were for metal fab were air compressors. The turbine doey you thought was what they may have been making was in fact a ceiling drop gas heater.
Those are air compressors for air.Put the entiresome for tolls and stuff
Probably was a nice house in it's day I bet
All the equipment and trucks are good for scrap.
Weird all this going on in the Middle of the Woods🤔
WOW very dangerous just to walk inside. Better to stay safe!
Great exploration
New to the channel, be careful it looks like a quick place to get hurt.
Thanks for the Sub and your support!
Cool 😅😅😅
Bro I would be there with some batteries trying to save those machines
So sad to see building tagged and burned.
Cool men
مرحبا براندون والجميع يسمعون الليلة ❤
If it would have been kept up over the years it would have been in better condition.👍
Lots of walls, old used up equipment, trash, and old dreams built, lived and finished.
A remanent of a busy live not long ago. Stories lived never to be told again.
It is sad to a old man that lived through those years, remembering the busy times that brought fulfillment
To the lives there.
But time does not stop. Things change, new lives are lived.
Some for better some for less. Making new worlds , new things, new ways that will end also.
Why did we think these things would always last, grow, get better.
They return to earth as we will.
Some sooner, some slowly, some already.
ive road my ATV through there many times lol
I live up in this general area myself, it's all beautiful north of the city!!
Thanks for the message! 🤩
I like 👍 to see properly like 👍 this but I hate see them rotting down and no body wants to fix them
Fair amount of scrapping on that property. Someone buy it demo most of it and make some money scrapping.
I was thinking the same thing......$$$
👍 0:34
❤
Might of been a heavy equipment shop
Nice finger lol 😊
There's alot of stuff there if you could get it cheap ut wotbe worth it
Where is this? UK? Like to have more of a look at the excavator
Bi actually it's in Canada. Ya I'm confused as to why I didn't go over and look at it more either. I may have to go back!
Thanks for the message and your support! 🤩🤍
Utility bed for a truck.
Whereabout?
Air compressor
So what was that place? Where is it located?
Metal factory possibly. And I can't say sorry.
I can say it's in Ontario Canada.
I think it was abandoned since 1992
Humans waste way to much poor planet
The top floor of that building is no good
Lots of equipment just wasted. Why do people have nice things and just waste them.
Boat is totally gone.
Too far gone now to repair.
Really cool
Dang bro I wish that I could send you an email I could go look at that I enjoy looking at old stuff like that if I can please let me know and I'll send you an email brother I really appreciate you good video
They’re two air compressors
