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!

@hotboy1733 2 года назад

Those actually were not scaffolding legs or horizontals. I am NCCER+ certified in the scaffold craft and all scaffolding material is modular, and would have some type of connectors that would hold them together and would be noticable on each piece, even if you don't recognize what you are looking at.

Need to think outside the scrap envelope. You missed some valuable stuff. A few hours spent selling on eBay could have netted thousands there. The cases alone would probably go a minimum of $50 each. Kept the banding tools but not the band? The kit would have sold for at least a couple of hundred bucks.

@shawbros 2 года назад

"The kit would have sold for at least a couple of hundred bucks." Not necessarily. I see some kits (includes strapping tools, 400 seals, 690' strap) for $54 on eBay. (eBay Item # 322410207634 or 401630855204)

@garyflythe1362 2 года назад
