    Mike. You should consider getting a Tommy lift for your truck. Your back will only last so long and the tommy lift can stay out for those last large items.

    I love watching you scavenge reminds me of back in the 70's when I was a kid here in the UK we used to go to the local dump and riffle through bags and boxes and find jewellery, small antiques and allsorts of little treasures, I got quite a few quid doing that, it was like treasure hunting. Love your vids, cheers Mike.

    I had to return a microwave I purchased at Lowe's because it wasn't the right size to fit the space. Left in car so a employee would lift it out and went in did the return and got the right one. The salesman came out side and because of covid he put a sticker on the box and cut an x across the bar code and told me to dispose of it because they couldn't take back in store. I sold it on market place

    I love finding old TVs…the older they are, the more copper they have on the yoke. I also het a lot of copper from components on the boards. I turn the picture tubes in to my local waste container site; it’s illegal to throw electronics in the trash in my county, but people do it anyway, which I profit from. Old monitors and TV picture tubes contain lead and phosphorus gas, which is why TVs and monitors aren’t supposed to be thrown in the trash.

    Mike I just had one of your crazy scrapping day.
    I wound up with 3- (10') aluminum poles and eill be making an Amateur Radio tripod. I did come across brand new sump pump and washing machine discharges hoses.
    Saves me from going out and purchasing them from Lowes.
    I even found a sears 14.4 vdc drill kit with the charger and 2 batteries. Batteries need to be rebuilt and can do that.
    What I didn't realize was tge pool pump is the same one for my well pump. I went to go back but someone else has it.
    Mike have a good weekend.
    PS my day started at 4AM and finished at 2 PM...

    Helpful hint on those CRT tv's there is a big wire usually copper that runs around the picture tube (I think it is for degaussing) that and the cone on picture tube makes it worth busting them up.. Thanx Mike for another great video and such...

    • @steviebboy69
      @steviebboy69 2 года назад

      Yes there were 2 actually one was on the neck used for deflection, and around the back there was degaussing, so a reasonable amount of good copper in those.

    The most immediately hazardous part of the TVs is the high voltage circuit that could shock you if still charged. Most likely not, but you never know. Then there's the broken glass, big cutting hazard and the phosphorous coating used inside the crt (cathode ray tube) that is now free to float about, don't need to be breathing it. But the big issue with recycling old TVs is the leaded glass the crt tube is made from. The lead in the glass won't be a problem unless you plan on grinding it to dust and breathing or eating it. Recyclers don't have an economical way of processing it, so don't want it. The yoke coil and wiring harness have copper wire, some value in certain circuit boards. Also other lead, cadmium and other metals that should be professionally dealt with.

    • @samvalentine3206
      @samvalentine3206 2 года назад +1

      The degaussing coil is some really thick solid copper wire that goes around the tube on the inside - maybe 6 or 8 gauge solid copper. Something to consider - maybe 3+ feet of it.

    I would love to see if that microwave is new. I don’t think so. Because when stainless steel appliances are new they have that plastic film on them to keep them from getting scratched. But you never know. The other 2 microwaves shows what happens when you forget and put aluminum foil in them and it starts a fire and you grab it and throw it outside to keep it from burning the house down. 😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😘 But those look like after you threw them out you jumped up and down on them. 🤣😂😂😂😂. We know that Mighty Mike and darling Dottie will get to the bottom of it. Stay safe and God Bless
