    The copper bottom pans you can clean up the copper to look like new, buy some stainless steel bar cleaner. Wet the pan and then sprinkle the cleaner and a little more water let it sit for a minute or two then sprinkle a little more water if needed and start rubbing the copper part with your fingers or a sponge.
    But make sure you wash it with regular dish soap after to make sure all the powder cleaner is wash and rinsed off and they will look like brand new. If the lids are with them don’t forget the copper on the handle.
    Well you’ve got the Old Granny from Wyoming watching!!!
    💜👵👍🏻😘💜 keep buying the units. I love watching and really enjoy the seeing the antiques.

      Thank you so much! That is an excellent description and a great way to get the most out a valuable item. Thank you for mentioning about the storage units, too. We've been showing different parts of our work to see what types of videos that we can do well and also to figure out what things everyone would like to see. Coincidentally, I do think our next video is going to be a storage unit.

      My parents had a set. My dad made me promise to get to them before my sister did. Because he knew I would take care of them, then he showed me how to care of them. My sister is a slob, but so was I when I was in my teens and a little younger. She’s over fifty now and I’m pretty sure that her ways hasn’t changed in how she takes care of her things. The sad part is that when my parents estate was finished and done she had started having a new home being built. She gave me $2700.00 and said that was my half of the estate. Do you think this sounds a just a little fishy. I didn’t think was that type of person. There’s only the two of us, I didn’t figure she was that type of sibling. Right after I got the check she blocked on all her and other things. Then she quit even talking to me all together and that was seven years ago. She also turned my oldest son against me. But she wasn’t able to turn my youngest against me. But at least she still talk to him but not much. She still lives in our home state. I moved to a different state over twenty two years ago. So because I moved to a different state I Suggested that they may want to make Tara executor of the state because she still lived in the same state. But I didn’t think she would do what she did not in a million years but she did. I should of suggested my parents that we both handle it with her and most of the stuff that had to been done down there. And to top that off I left my family for the weekdays for over six months to take care of my mother that was 24 seven she only had to be with her one night maybe two just so I could come home and be with my family for a few days.
      I did the week days because I wasn’t working at the time. I did all the work of cleaning out the house. She wouldn’t even help go through things to do a better job of setting up the estate sale. It took me a eleven weeks. Yah that is not part of her executive duties she couldn’t be bothered with. She always thought she was better than me. She got the brains and lived on the rich side of town. And I was just cheap trailer trash. Our dad’s youngest sister took time out of her day to help, and here’s the big kicker she drove over 5 hour to get there but my sister couldn’t come help and she was only 30 minutes away.
      Well I’m going to let you go before I talk all night. Oh ya I was going to tell you about two stranger came the first day and offered to come back and help me every time I was in town to work on the house getting it cleaned out. That was eleven weekends so that’s tells you how much stuff they had and I had to still bring home for two more yard sales at my house. I had rented a 25 footer filled from top to bottom and from the front to the back door. And I’ve never been back to that house since I pulled out of that driveway that day!
      Keep buying and digging.
      Looking forward to seeing more.
      This is all for now. The Old Granny from Wyoming!

      Thank you that story!!!! That was wonderful of you to share it. It is strange, how similar elements of your story happen in so many of our families. And yet, it still feels surprising in some way when it happens. I guess that is part of why it is so nice to hear someone's story. It is comforting in a way and makes us feel connected and not alone in things. Even when there are those that want to behave the opposite.

    Crikey that is a lot of work, a long day clearing the locker. Good that you decided to unbox at home. With reference to the comments, it is interacting. Those that take the time to watch and pick out memories of years gone by is really cool, good to hear you also enjoy reading the comments too 😊 I am the guilty one who wrote saving the best till last 😊 Look forward to your next video, have fun and don't overdo it 😊

I hadn't thought about it ahead of time, so when it came up, I realized that I was hesitant to name people by their RUclips handle. I think it would be very fun. In the moment, I was wondering if it would be uncomfortable for you or others to be mentioned so directly

      Sorry for the delay, I just now figured out how to see these new replies to comments. I had thought they would show up automatically in the new list. We probably won't be there this weekend, but in April we will be there Saturdays and Sundays. I will say 10AM to 1PM to be safe. The flea market is called Greenlawn Grove and it at 16447 Middlebelt Rd. , Romulus. Our booth is in the row furthest from Middlebelt. The easiest way to get to it is when you enter the parking lot to drive to the back away from the road and you can walk right in down that last row. It would be so fun to see you there, I hope you're able to some weekend! I will definitely have the brown rubbermaid, just in case
