    I love the Poor Man's Flea Market segment. It blows my mind what some people throw away! When I was a kid back in the 60s I lived in an area where everyone had a back shed. Every now and then someone would clean out their shed and I would head over and rummage through the boxes to see what I could find. Occasionally I'd try and sneak a treasure into our house which infuriated my mother. 😂 She called me a "garbage picker," a name I wear proudly.😁

    My father always said, how good of a craftsman you are is how well you cover up your mistakes. Nice save on the pot. Now you can justify 20 dollars on something else. Through the years I have taken others peoples trash and turned it into cash or something I could use. You just showed a good example. One man’s trash is another man’s gold. Thank You

    Hey John those plastic tool boxes are an excellent find! I was trying to find those about a year ago because they are the perfect size for vehicles. Sears stopped making them and they are sold on E bay for a huge cost if you can find them. Couldn't find a manufacturer that makes anything similar. Score!

    We were on our way (finally) when Mrs. Anderson said. "Uh-oh." With that, I should have known enough to KEEP GOING! I returned home to find the house filled with smoke, Mrs. Anderson had left rice on the stove which became one big cinder in the bottom of a pot. My sweetpea yelled." Wrinkles!", the little stuffed doggie she USUALLY carried EVERYWHERE! The smuck that I am, I nearly didn't survive rescuing Wrinkles. Later, at dinner I looked over at Mrs. Anderson, stuffing her pie hole (for a small girl she can really pack it away) and didn't get so much as "You're my hero." out of her! PS - Scout, I've found it is often quicker to use a handtool than to jig up a machine tool. Learn to file, guys!

    The vac brush works well, for me anyway, using them to vacuuming car carpet, it seems to knock things loose in the carpet that have a tendency to stick in the carpet, I even bought a new one, an then cut the bristles shorter on the old one to help stiffen the brush to help dig the into the carpet, which works pretty well. That bolt you found, to me anyway, was a good find. Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching.

    I have one of those truck boxes full of projects. Also a lot of those Farberware pans and skillets. You need to watch for pans thrown out and grab the handles. There are piles of them on estate sales. I started putting loctite on the bolt threads. I haven't had trouble in years. Love that galvanized bolt. Although I am not fond of welding it I wonder what happened to using it these days. It was such a huge industry starting in the late 19th century. A lot of fortunes were started by zinc factories. Of course in those days they were big poluters but the need didn't go away. Every kitchen had zinc or porcelain zinc. Every bucket and washtub was galvanised steel as was your garbage can. Now we are cursed with plastic.

    Three years back I cleaned out the trap in my dishwasher and took everything out to get to it. I must have pushed down the heating element because over a few washes that heating element slowly burned a quarter inch by about one and a half inch hole in the bottom of the dishwasher tub. I fixed it (with a suggestion from my somewhat smarter about fixing things brother) with a high temp J-B Weld. It's white and it worked. I think it is good by about 200 extra degrees over the gray. Heating element is about a half, 3/4 inch from the puddled patch and still holding fine after three years.

    • @ScoutCrafter
      @ScoutCrafter  7 днів тому +2

      Yes! JB Weld is good for 500 degrees, JB Weld High Heat is good for 550 degrees and JB Weld Extreme Heat is good for 1000 degrees! I don’t think I ever heard anyone badmouthing JB Weld products. 😃👍

    Thanks John, great show, nice repair on the saucepan, it drives me crazy how expensive spare parts are, it doesn't exactly encourage people to repair an item does it ! I've got a couple the three-way shoe lasts inherited from both sides of the family, they come in handy occasionally as a form of light anvil.
    I'm with your Dad, I'm also an advocate of the vacuum brushes, almost everything is better cleaned using one of those, just don't use it on anything sticky or greasy. I was cleaning up a brand new toolbox that I bought in a sale recently - it was filthy, must have been hanging around in the warehouse for some time, I used my vacuum brush along with a 2" paintbrush then wiped it down with a damp rag ! Brushes are one of those things whenever I see any at a good price I buy them, so I have a wide selection of sizes and textures ready for any clean-up, and I never throw away a toothbrush !

    Those shoemaker lasts were a nice find, great memorabilia. Too bad there are no more shoemakers around. It a dying trade. My great grandfather was a shoemaker in Italy.
    As far as the handle great repair but remember one thing from now on - DON’T COOK ON A HIGH FLAME!

      Frank- one big issue with the small pots and gas flame burners is if you move the pot a lot off center the flame licks the handle and you’re SOL. 🫣😂👍

    Not a Starrett square! Looks like a recent Craftsman. Scheer Tumico made a lot of them. You should ask 357 Magdad to find you a 6 inch Starrett or Athol Machine square even if it a dirty one. he did a nice job on a Lufkin....just saying get an upgrade! Put the craftsman square in the Craftsman plastic tool box and put it in the car for emergency work.

    Why are so many people throwing toilets out?
    I don't get it there's only the inlet valve and syphon mechanism that can fail on a toilet and they are universal, cheap and easily replaceable anyone can replace anything in the cistern with a couple of wrenches in minutes.

      Toilets go in remodels. Also, as we age the height can become an issue. Our house was built in 1942 and was relocated in 1975. So far 3 of 4 toilets have been replaced.
