Check that coax and make sure it dosen't have a copper center wire. The concrete cutting blades are diamond tipped and if they still have some edge you might be able to sell them, if they rented the cutter they just through the blades out even if they are not worn out. Keep up the great videos and God bless you and your family
The green tape is for the ground wire. Black/Red/Blue for low voltage. Brown/Orange/Yellow for high voltage. It’s called Phasing tape. Just helps identify conductors when they aren’t colored already.
Blue: Internationally, blue tape indicates “low voltage, neutral sheath, 230V” Green: In the US, green tape means “earth ground.” It's common for green and yellow tape to be used together to imply “isolated ground.”
Hi MTS 👋🏻! Thank you so much for all the joy and laughter you bring to our lives! I am sitting alone in a cabin and it is dumping like crazy. Thanks for keeping me company!!
Don't overlook blacksmiths for those saw blades. It is perfect for them to make knives and other creations and a lot of them are willing to pay above scrap price.
Glad you made time to go to the beach house with the Pops. Even if it was roughing it and working part of the time. Hope y'all got to fish a little, and drink a lot!
Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, You is da MAN! We go back a long way, and I look forward to EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR VEEDEEOOS! Thank you a ton for posting them and giving those of us who can't dive something to watch and be a part of. Love them. Yes, love 'em. Later Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike! ¡ ! ¡ !
25:34 the green tape to tape the ground wire there is red,blue white for 120/208/ for a Y System . Then brown, purple, yellow, gray for 277/480 and orange for 120/240 high leg Delta system we call the collor tape "phase tape "
And here in ukraine tape is colored for sake of being colored. Difference only comes in material tape is made of. Must be a nightmare to carry a bunch of rolls for everything...
Have been following your vlog for a while and have already watched many. You have a sense of humor and I notice that people throw things away easily. Think that happens everywhere.
Gunna be a lil sappy here but while up here in Ontario Canada we were in another lockdown your videos were such a godsend it made the lockdown bearable love you God bless and stay safe
@@jackofalltrades22 lets just hope that the fat 🐈 Doug Ford doesn't put us back into a lockdowns as then it will cause more trouble as you already know a lot of small businesses are now gone for good
@@seanall1 on AC circuits. On DC circuits the Red is positive and black is Negative. I've worked on wiring in old (1940's) buildings where the green wire was hot also, so old that the outer braid was woven cotton covering rubber inner. About a foot into the conduit and the wire looked like it had just been installed and it's 70+ years old.

On house AC power: White is Neutral Green is Ground/Earth Red is Hot, one side of Panel 120 VAC Black is Hot, other side of Panel 120 VAC things like the Dryer, and Ovens run 240 VAC, using both the Black & Red to get 120 volts on each for a combined 240 volts.

@@ernestorivera-jovet1760 no you maybe dont talk that way, what i said is id take that cuz people i work with take it for themselves mike probadly has so much but those look new
Watched a few of his, but the same old ingots get a bit boring- reckon if he cast up gearknobs for popular car models he could get a widespread recognition not to mention make extra money.
the colored tape is called "phasing tape", green=ground, white=neutral, red= hot leg, black=hot leg in 240v plus. in 120v black= hot leg, white=common, green or bare wire=ground. multi strand wire has numbers on the coatings of each wire, the tape is used to mark what number wire will be used for which leg on the other end.
The colored electrical tape are used sometimes to certify that you have inspected electrical cord on tools and extension cords on a quarterly basis. Green is for April May and June
Mike all day today Dec. 24 , I was feeling down so I decided to watch your show and as you was cleaning them balas you made me laugh hard thank you 4 hours to clean those balas & wire was not an easy job its a back breaker but you made it happen , Mike keep up with what your doing and be safe ok , Merry Christmas and a Happy New Yezr to you and your family , stay cool .
Hi Mike, green electric tape is used for ground wires, for kicking the breaker off. Black & red are hot wires, and the white is the return ground. Keep digging!! A friend in PA. Robin Jo
Please go out more often Just love you to one day find a valuable item you deserve it especially when you’re diving into rotting leaves and getting pricked at the same time LOVE FROM THE PHILIPPINES
Great vid as always. If you can't sell the saw blades as saw blades you might be able to sell them to crafter painters. You will make more $$ then scrap. Those were nice blades and wire haul. Tfs.
Those concrete cutting wheels can EASILY be made into clocks with the purchase of a clock motor and large set of hands. They can be purchased at the local craft store and they are cheap! No numerals needed. The size, once hung on a wall from the back of the clock motor, makes it easy easy to read the correct time. Can do the same with CD’s if you want a smaller size. Have made several for family Xmas gifts. Easy to do Tennis Shoe!

Hey Mike I really enjoy your videos, it reminds me when I used to do that. I find your videos educational about scrap.
Green tape is to mark a wire as a grounding conductor,,, not neutral,,, :-)
Correct and Black and Red are usually positive and white is the neutral

The saw blades can be made into very nice chefs knifes when put in the right hands! Just a thought stay safe from BIGMICK IN THE UK🇬🇧😷

For houshold wiring black is positive and white is negative. Red is also used as a positive or hot wire.
