  • Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

    You should film plugging in the tv’s. I think we are all curious if you ever find one that works perfectly. Sometimes the tv just needs to be reset and sometimes people just throw them away because they got a new one

    • @perstaffanlundgren
      @perstaffanlundgren Год назад +1

      Handling them without throwing them around so much may increase the chances they actually are ok when testing them. I agree, should be interesting to see a scrap TVs test video , and also interesting to here were they are ending up .

  • @sonofeloah
    @sonofeloah Год назад +4

    Anti rabbit tip that truly works. Save your first of the morning pee in a jug and then put into a sprayer and spray around the base of the bushes. Two benefits. One is the most obvious. Rabbits do not like eating or going near anything that is "marked" by a predator. They are sure that if one predator marked that spot, another one will come by to "over mark" it and they do not want to be a snack for that territory marking predator. The second benefit is that pee is loaded with nitrogen and will make the bush grow bigger/healthier.

    I did jury service in the UK, and I didn't know that the court houses here don't have public carparks, On the first day I followed the judge into their private car park while the barrier was up. Then quickly got turned around. Luckily, the public car parks in town were in the process of changing to a different operating company, so the payment machines weren't working that week. Apparently, UK Government buildings are exempt from planning regulations, so they often don't even have onsite parking for their employees.

      Try mixing dishwasher soap (like d*wn) with some cayenne powder, and smear it on the plants. It works for deer, so it'll probably work for rabbits.

      @perstaffanlundgren Год назад

      Yes spools are good to store kabels hoses rope etc. On Was thinking the same.
      There should be a scrapper network ,so people could make requests for stuff they are looking for. if those things are found by someone else that dont , have use for them, the materials could be redistributed to the ones that are locking for it. If there are metal values or other value in the materials the finder should get some money for it of course.
