I always want to scrap things, I remember moving out of my first college apartment and my roommate left her metal futon frame. The metal yard was very close to my apt so I took it over and got $7 Paid for lunch. :)
I hope you are out and in the clear from the flooding in Calgary! Been seeing a ton of videos of the new lakes and riviers in the streets. Great video and great content, a pleasure to watch. Keep doing the thing! :)
You stuffed a stove into the Vibe?!😂😂 Nice!👍 also, don’t feel bad about scrapping the bowflex. It will be shredded, melted and made into a new bowflex and sold for thousands of dollars. Circle of life, uh, scrap!
I’m not sure of the proper name of that yard decoration but I call it a gazing ball. I have one in front of my house but mine is glass and I put a little solar light in it. The neighbors love it so I’m told
M8 does your scrap yard pay for cu wire ? Here they buy it as a percentage of copper vs plastic for instance , Christmas lights with bulbs and plug ins are 25% , household wire is 45% , thicker wire could be 65%, 85% etc . Keep up the good work. God bless y'all.
I saw that when editing! 😆 it could’ve just been the box though, but given that the other one was bnib chances are that was the second one in the same state
Just want to say I appreciate you. Im a new subscriber and already love your flow. keep it up 😎👉👉 I also didn't think there was scrapping UA-camrs so that's very cool
I use my reciprocating saw so it’s just a matter of what direction the right-angle fold of the steel strip is pointing. I just cut down through the copper on the flat side of the steel
Hi ,Thumbprint Ive been watching your vids to learn the biz .Where I live most dumpsters are locked .can you do a video on finding dumpsters to dive? If you or any of you followers have any advice ? Thx
It’s a personal journey I’m afraid, a lot of people just live in areas that aren’t good for dumpsters. My favourites are the big bins where somebody moved out and left everything for the landlord to deal with so they throw everything out
Most of the material in modern faucet assemblies are a zinc-aluminium alloy (sometimes called pot metal) it’s heavier than aluminum but not pure zinc. I’ve seen lots of plastic ones too. They’ll still have brass and copper parts though so it’s worth checking!
Hmm. Since you're not a bad person, I'm going to chalk your behavior at the Diabetes bins as ignorance rather than arrogance. Those Diabetes donation bins are not garbage bins. People have made a choice to donate something to that particular place, and it's waiting pickup from the Diabetes foundation. If you want clothes and are in need, ehn, yeah, okay, maybe help yourself, because at least you're getting the full value of the item out of it. But, to take something that was donated for people in need, people that can't afford furniture, and destroy it for a penny on the dollar in scrap is disrespectful and, maybe even illegal since it's not garbage. And yeah, I know that probably 80% of what gets donated (to any thrift place) doesn't even see a second use, half of it goes to trash and the other half gets put on a shelf for a bit before going to trash anyways, but... that's not really your place to intercept it and decide that. If someone's dropped off broken trash, okay, but that looked like disassembled and usable. Undo your ignorant behavior and go make a $20 donation to the Diabetes foundation as an "Oops, didn't know."
It's a donation bin not a donation parking lot, anything left outside is considered littering, regardless of the intent of the donation. Most have signs informing folks to not pile items outside the container, leaving clothing outside to be ruined by rain or blown across the parking lot is not a good idea anyways. It's a clothing drop box, not for tables, housewares, baby seats or any other items folks are too lazy to find the proper charity to donate to. The bins are collected at most weekly. When they become a dumping ground like that one it will soon be removed at the request of the property manager, so if you're in the habit of piling whatever outside a container thinking it's a good thing your doing more harm than good.
I am sure he is crushed and will now make it his life mission to retrieve it in order to fulfill your vision for it, just to relieve himself of the burden of bearing your disappointment.....
Thub always makes the dumpster diving look like so much fun!
Im very glad the grass looks healthy.

That’s actually pretty decent for a futon frame, nice!
Thub will embarrass your scrap meanderings. Watch and be inspired.
You are about a week away from 100K - congrats.
A profitable day out and good effort. So glad you took the Bowflex, that really was worthwhile. 👍
Ooh - I've never seen a Google car. Neato. Too bad about the Bowflex. Today's fad is tomorrow's scrap. Nice video, Thub. Thanks.
Great video

Hi I'll keep my fingers crossed until you reach 100,000 subs..
Love the Canadian product cameos. I have the same "wine shop" purple bin and moto master jack thingy.
The motion sickness I got from the camera swaying and jumping back and forth was pretty severe. Not fun, I'm afraid.
Yep, sometimes we resell the exercise equipment or whatever we pick up, other times it goes to the yard.
Love your videos! Keep it up.
HAPPY 🇨🇦DAY!!!!!
Love the vids!!!!

Groovy
Just been watching your clips over night got away with 20 for charity.❤
🎯GOOD
hehe I threw with my stone ball just a little ago and I got to say it is pretty shiny, but drops little hard like stone, very interesting
Just be careful you don’t do it near any glass houses!
Near the end, you pushed that one tarp out of the way half a dozen times yet it never moved. 🤣😂😉
Lol I work for BTDT Im always looking for copper and wires when I do pick ups
You missed the second rotor in the box in the first dumpster. It was sitting right next to the one you found lol
I saw that when editing! 😆 it could’ve just been the box though, but given that the other one was bnib chances are that was the second one in the same state
That's my job repairing the dental equipment, (dentsply) is a major dental company mostly out of Canada
Did you miss another brake rotor? Looks like another box to the right of where you found the other one.
$45.00 for a bow flex ???? Here in New Brunswick we would be lucky to get that for a full truckload of scrap .
Great video 👍 inching closer to 100k.
The helment is for montenbikcing
I’m surprised an oven is worth taking in the Pontiac. I’m also surprised it fit with the garden rack, excellent Tetris skills.
There is copper in those track lights. Great vid Thub!!!
Just want to say I appreciate you. Im a new subscriber and already love your flow. keep it up 😎👉👉
I also didn't think there was scrapping UA-camrs so that's very cool
Well I’m stoked you found me, thanks for saying hi!

Thumb can I ask where do I cut on air con rads for thr copper doughnuts on the end please help as not shore ie before metal or after
I use my reciprocating saw so it’s just a matter of what direction the right-angle fold of the steel strip is pointing. I just cut down through the copper on the flat side of the steel
@@thubprint thank you for your help

Do you ever have other scrappers on you and get aggressive like they want what you are loading up?
It’s only happened once so far!
Thub were those aluminum winding motors made in china?
253 - New Jersey - USA
You definetly need a truck
May I know purchase price
I found some faucets but when I do the scratch test it is not shiny brass nor does it spark like stainless. Do they make faucets out of aluminum?

Dude, the lights on the track lights are cast aluminum. Why not keep them?????
Are they?? I guess I should’ve checked a little closer haha
oooo first four comments
Why would you take stuff from a donation bin?? Those items were meant to be sold to support a charity…..
🤦🏻♂️

@@vincedibona4687 There's a difference between nitpicking and calling out an ethical fault on someone who is otherwise shown to be ethical.

@MattsAwesomeStuff You really called that an ‘ethical fault’. 🤣
Aloo min hum
Door knobs micro scrapping for residential quality is not worth the time.
thats for poor people don't do that at the donation box.
Very cool up until the point you started combing through the charity donation box. Not cool bro.
He took some old shelves. Not exactly the kind of stuff that's desperately needed.
@@WilhelmFreidrich I get that, but it’s not his decision to make. I can’t go to my neighbors house and take thing I don’t think he needs.
If the neighbor set it out as unwanted, it would be fair game.
Most time the charity boxes are for just clothes. Also lot of that stuff thats on ground or gross gets tossed anyways.
Somebody could make a beautiful furniture with that am disappointed with you
I am sure he is crushed and will now make it his life mission to retrieve it in order to fulfill your vision for it, just to relieve himself of the burden of bearing your disappointment.....
Somebody could have written your sentence with proper punctuation. I am disappointed with you.
So you’re stealing from Charity Donation Bins now? Wow man……..
