    It's not a thermometer. It's a hydrometer used for proofing alcohol. The green jar and Vaseline jar, some are worth some money. Hope you saved them. One man's junk is another man's treasure.

    The refrigerator door is the old, unsafe type that would allow kids to get trapped inside the refrigerator, and the door seals are probably rotted. It would be an interesting restoration project if the door issue can be solved. The cinderblock structure looks pretty good, the community here has offered many good ideas. If you have a local knifemaker, he might want the springs and some of the better iron, like the mower blade.

    I’m 75 years old and my family always had glass jars of petroleum jelly. you can’t leave the cinderblock there for your turkeys release or a place of shelter when it snows for the odd animals out there. or a shelter from a tornado if y’all are out there working in the field.. call that guy that that works with Dutch. He does all kinds of stuff with metal. He might clean it out for you. Or Brandon‘s father collects metal and he might clean it up for you.

    Bandaid box and vaseline jar might be worth something. Cool finds. Old stuff is so much more durable than new stuff. I think you should store stuff there, it's pretty far from the house. Good luck researching it. Hope you think of something cool to do with it. Keep us posted!

    I'd keep the fridge. I had an older unit & I loved it, worked so much better than fridges today. Yeah repurpose the stuff that's in the building. Some of the old glass jars could be antique & worth $, the curad is all original & could be worth something. that ring is probably use to be on an old wagon wheel. Looked like a harrow, the wheels looked like old tractor wheels. 😁

  • @eileencarroll6418

    IDEA: It would be nice to have a safe room shelter that you could use when a storm comes up all of sudden. Emergency first aid, bottled water and snack storage would be nice to. Adding a roof would be nice for sun and hail protection. Of course you will need a picnic table and somewhere to swing a hammock. With the exception of the safe room and supply storage, the building could be open aire.
    Would that end of your property be a more remote location for growing your next generation of wild turkeys? So they could become less used to people.
    Yes, take us on a tour of all the structures. It might help make sense of the concrete block building.

    These old fridge were built to last , my friend had her mother & father’s from 75 years ago and it was great , it finally died a couple of years ago and they had to buy a new one for the basement for their beverages … the new one did not keep their drinks as cold as that old fridge .

    Dusty, you could use the tin for cabinet doors. Build a frame., attach the tin and put a piece of thin wood on the back. My husband made one for the bathroom. Another idea for a small stand for instance a 2 tier plant stand you could enclose and put a decorative piece on it.

    Wow. This fifties girl loves all this, especially those sheets of metal. It would sure be good if you had a place to store these pieces for repurposing. I have seen these pieces being used as ceiling pieces in old buildings and it is beautiful. Plus, it brings one back to “the old days”. That’s a sweet find, imo. Need an excavator to pull off, I would think. That fridge is cool!

    Hey Dusty, A 6 inch or so length of 3/4 inch dowel rod or 1/2 inch gas pipe placed in the valley of the corrugated tin to backup your pry bar works great for pulling nails without damaging the tin. That's if you really want to spend the time to save it.

    Saw the back building the last time you burned back there. Was that 3 years ago already? I remember when you purchased the initial young 5, it was 5 wasn’t it, and had them at the OG.
    There must be something you can use that block remnant for. How about fixing it up, with wire door and roof (with ventilation) for future turkey rearing. Automatic feeders and waterers so you don’t have to trudge out there every day. Tree branches for roosting. A camera inside to check on their well being. Get a big magnet (Google) to pick up nails and metal crap on and beneath the ground around the structure.
    Long time watcher here!
    Happy Trails as you keep on Bison ranching!!!

    Thanks for another excellent video..Vaseline transitioned to plastic jars in the 1960's. If that jar is glass, it could be considered a "collectible.' Also, now that you have uncovered the 'fridge, you should take the door off.

  • @DavidSellars-b8l
    @DavidSellars-b8l 2 часа назад +1

    Haven't seen a pitcher pump like that in many years. Have used a few.
    The best way to separate the tin from the studs is a Sawzall between the metal and wood. NOTE, those are LEAD-Head nails. The lead on the head was used to seal the hole. That lead should be collected and not remain on the soil.
    The circle was a tire from a wagon wheel.
    The whole place says 50-60's. I'm thinking the slab may have a thick footing but only be 4-6 inches otherwise. The old frig has a latch on it that can't be opened from the inside. Those were dangerous because kids might hide in them and were not able to get out. Best idea is to remove the door. Used to be a common practice if you found an abandoned one.
    If nothing else, put a plastic and metal roof over it and store hay in it. Keep rain and snow from leaching protein from the hay.

    I'd definitely make a cabin out of the structure. I'd always be looking for ways to make money, year round. Then, that huge pole barn would also be made into a cabin, again, I'd always be looking for ways to increase my income. I'd also make a tiny house out of that old silo. I'd modernize the property too by adding a small plunge pool for visitors to cool off during the hot summers here in Oklahoma. And then of course, during the winter, keep the pool covered like any other pool would be. But, all those structures would be turned in to AirB&B homes. Good luck with the renovations guys. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

    Cool old fridge, my papa had one like that in his shop. If you don't use it to store equipment or make a cabin out of it. Have you ever seen a Hartley? A type of greenhouse. Garden Answer channel has one. You have to do the base they supply the top part. That brand is expensive, but maybe you could have something like that made out of the base of the building. Since you guys grow flowers and things. Some of those old bottles and bandaid things can be worth money might check into that before trashing. Those wheels are neat. But yeah I'd clean it up and probably bring a metal detector out there to make sure you get all the nails and metal pieces to to keep hoofs and paws and feet safe.

    I think a cabin is a great idea and could be fun content. I would watch but then I watch all your videos so I’m not sure that’s a big change. 😂. This was a fun video! Thanks!

    Old gates and bedsprngs make great driveway drags.
    That vasoline is still good for animal use on paws or tails

    Could rebuild and use to store hay,feed etc. would be less hauling every time you need to feed. A turkey barn would be great Can’t wait to see what you decide to do
