    You had a train set, my brother and I had a slot car race track. It was attached to a large board. We would put it on the billiard table to use. Then take it off when we wanted to play pool. My dad even would go to a model store and race competitively. Fun childhood.

    Chime in on the bike... Serotta was a great bike brand, and the Ultegra group, though getting old, is still excellent. That is a great find! Have it inspected by a mechanic to see if there are no cracks or critical rust and put it up on the Bay! If it's the right size I'd even bid on it! Keep it up Mike, nice video...

      So sorry for the loss of your husband! I am glad his son kept it! My late father was an avid man that would build anything for us to keep us occupied! It just wasn't us 4 boys, but also most of the boys in the neighborhood, as they all came over to see what fun thing he had made for us!

    Jumpin' in! Mike, the fire hose! The ends are brass or aluminum. 14:31 The Brazos turns muddy south of Waco. There it starts going through the "Brazos Bottom" and is flanked on both shores with that red dirt so commonly found there. If there is a good period with no rain the river starts to clear up. But when there is heavy rains, it turns that ruddy red color we all know.

    @Jason1975ism 16 дней назад +7

    I scored my brother-in-law's model train tracks recently. A tote full took me 1 hour to strip and paid me 30 bucks in brass! It's a very high copper brass. The rest of it was nickel silver stainless steel and they paid me stainless steel price. I made about 40 bucks for 1 hour of work.

    • @unklejohn8575
      @unklejohn8575 16 дней назад +2

      To add, not many people use brass tracks anymore due to constant cleaning and having better options on the market. No one will miss those tracks if they are scrapped.

    • @Jason1975ism
      @Jason1975ism 16 дней назад

      @unklejohn8575 that's basically what he said lol. They were in a damp basement and he said they were beyond cleaning. They are easy to strip while watching TV and add up. I also got a lot of the electric motor switches and they have colorful copper windings around a brass tube.
