Auction Fever Strikes AGAIN! (Ritchie Bros Christmas Shopping) 

Love the Autocar.

same!

I'm glad he put footage of him driving it on main road with no music no time-lapse

good thinking. it would be easy to clutter up the permanent structure. over time, clutter has a way of filling up and interfering with premium dry, HVAC cement floor workspace . the boxes are a perfect way to greatly expand the usable space. a key will be to inventory parts and tools on your computer as you assign real locations to them. there are inexpensive programs available of PC and Mac to guide you through the process of laying out your storage area and assigning parts to places. Imagine you were going to sell each tool, piece and part and treat them all that way. It would be easy to lose track of things and end up buying needed things you already have. I do it all the time, and it pisses me off.

Good idea as well.. esp. if someone can figure out any personal info.. you wouldn't want to loose pricey tools/ equipment.. don't underestimate the modern theif. Zip ties $ bias plies had a great setup for putting a shop crain in a conex box

I think he is running out of room for the things "he wants". It would be nice to acquire things when you are ready to set them up an use. I started watching some of his videos on building a pole barn. And got me here with him buying containers for more space! I need to go back and see what he does an what he is trying to do. Maybe he needed a larger pole barn or one with a large loft for storage?

Don't know about your area, but ground bareing lowboys don't work well in our area. Ground is to soft for anything heavy. Not sure if it was. You have to mush fun.

Honestly i was thinking the same thing. Set them up near the main shop or somewhere that puts them in a good position between the main shop and container shop to act as central storage for the both of them. Knowing Matt he will prob fill them up pretty quickly especially if he brings in more autocar parts trucks or something lol

Good idea! Keeping the storage close to the shops will make things much more convenient and will save valuable time.

@@OutlawH2 Yeah, more storage space often means buying more junk.

exactly the same thing i thought

Those that watched, felt your pain.

I understand if you need it for a job then will not use it again... those things are very heavy evidenced by the lifting the rear end at the pickup yard.

got by though, as ever, so pufff that peace pipe

Matt Handled those containers just fine

Wishing you and yours a prosperous New Year .Very good content and informative. Keep up the down to earth narrative and the humor.

I really don't understand why people want those storage containers so bad, the price you pay per square foot of storage space is crazy high, and the way they are laid out, makes it very difficult to get things in and out, like a forty foot long hallway that you are trying to work in/ move around in. IDK

@@pontiacmaniac2 for 320 SF, what is cheaper? I have 3 40' high cube and one 20' container. I could not figure out a cheaper storage option.

@@jonblakemore6454 Building an actual shed, would suit my needs better, if you need job site storage next day, these containers are hard to beat. But if you take a look at quonset huts or something similar, I feel like the space is much more usable, rather than being divided up into 40ft long hallways.... Your mileage may vary.

I love machines that auctions have

How

Those connex boxes alone go for ~12,000 near me.

Same

Thank you, my name is also Matt

Penske waiting on the new BMW S13.

I'm hoping to see some auto car trucking vids!!

Congrats on some great buys. You said you may have too much storage 😂. Not possible!😅

I appreciate that!

I have done the same... only so many hours in the day and I have to work and fix my crap.

I tried to slim down channels, grew larger instead. Lot of things happening in the world now to try and keep aware of.

@briansd6 I found the same when I first started, so just stopped watching content in my notification. I'm now down to about 50 channels, mostly dealing with mechanics and cars. Channels like Matts that take in old stuff bobody wants or has simply been left to rot. Matt buys this/these items and gets them working. I guess I'm just fascinated seeing stuff work again after so many years.

Grind both edges of the blade two ends back about a half inch slap them and silver solder them together

Happy to have ya! Stick around! Lots of cool stuff on the way!

That's the cool thing about Matt's channel, ya never know what "cool things" he will drag home next. I never thought that Autocar would see the road again, but it runs well, a dustless blaster going over and a coat of paint that truck would look sweet.

Awesome buy Matt good to see the wife gave you some pocket money lol all the best for 2023 mate great content always take care 👍👌🔧🔧🔧❤️

Dead spot 52:07 to 53:10 might need to crop it out and re-render it

@@marksaddler I thought it my phone or service.

TURN ONE INTO A SHOP TO DO MACHINE WORK IN
