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!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas. Be sure to stay subscribed to stay up to date with my latest expeditions, y'all!

Soak the back of the fan in rubbing alcohol 90% for about 30 minutes pour some distilled water through the motor area and let dry in the sun should work perfectly after motor is probably gooped up

On the wheels with the partial tire on them, I been just using a reciprocating saw and cutting the tires off. When you get down to the bead on the rim, just cut on into the wheel until the tire is completely cut.

Mike if you do choose to scrap them take all the wiring out first, I would find a machine shop and see if they will buy them off you, I very seldom take anything to the scrap yard before I inquire to see if anyone would give me more then the scrap yard will, I have helped a few scraper in my area make make money from the people I sell things I find in the dumpsters,cause it's better to sell what ever to whom ever for more then the scrap yard cause it cost more to buy, now since the scarp prices are dropping like rocks in water and this is just the beginning of all prices hitting bottom in time any way have a great day my friend 👍✌️

Use a sawzall and just cut the outer bead and it'll come right off I get tires all the time like that with a full tires on them and I just cut right to the tires and cut into the rim a little bit and the whole tire will come right off but that's a easy tire and cut off
