    Could you amagine what it was like back in the day when a house was built by hand ? No power tools . Everything was flatheads . Twisting a screwdriver all day long . Those guys must have had forearms like poppeye .

      There was no flatheads in those days. It was all done by tender and mortar. So I don't know where you get your flatheads😂

    Those cast light fixtures, just "SMASH for CASH" That's what I'm talking about. 😂 Interesting to hear the stories about your early years working for that company and all the drama. Napoleon was a funny nick name for that guy. Have a good week Derek.

    In a world without flatheadscrews a flatheadscrewdriver would be priceless, now what would you use for poking and a prowding and chiselling?

    Have you ever thought of getting industrial shredder to break any/everything down to bits? It seems like it would save time and space when going to scrapyard.

    • @ProjectShopFl
      @ProjectShopFl  9 дней назад +2

      Yes, I think I am gonna make one.

    • @micav2413
      @micav2413 9 дней назад +1

      There are a ton of commercial options in terms of size/capacity. But the time spent planning on fitting/bundling/transport would be eliminated. Chuck into shredder collect in barrels and deliver. You would have to build a stand and collection unit etc but those things chew up everything.

    I saw the lights in the trailer and thought “TRANSFORMERS!”..due to the lack of lately 😂. Sucks that everything has to be made with cheap aluminum these days..maybe we can go back to copper when WW3 sends us back to the stone age.
    I found a chonky copper transformer inside of an old stereo receiver from 1973 yesterday and almost screamed..been a long minute for me lol. I almost want to keep it :s.

    Back in Kentucky we used corncobs too we had two bushels in the out house. you see we had white corn cobs and we had red corn cobs. And what you would do is you would use a red corn cob then you would use a white corn cob to see if you needed another red one.
    Don't you just love a good history lesson?????

    A Gallon of mercury is 27 pounds, X $250 / lb = $6750.00 Obviously a whole sale / scrap price would be less. To contain the mercury break the pods under water, so it can't oxidize or vaporize.
