People throw away the weirdest stuff 

I often get sick to my stomach thinking about how big chain music stores destroy perfectly good instruments to prevent people from dumpster diving for them. I think about it far too much.

Ready for Carpo jam session. I remember dumpster diving as a kid. Found a whole stack of Playboys.

Cool finds!!

9:42 That's good playing.

Oscar Schmidt designs the guitars, my favorite guitar was made by him, all natural wood with clear coats electric with a thin neck and really smooth, just seemed top notch, wish I knew the model exactly

Frugality keeps you from being a modern slave lol I am the bicycle, I am bicycles bob, only commute by bicycle, nice frame, gotta get a shock

great video man, take care

The items I keep in my house are items I have affinity for. Years ago, I bought a great desk at a thrift store for $30. All the drawers are dovetailed and solid wood, it's got two pull out writing slats. It's a banker's desk. When I bought it, I refinished it in a Cherry stain. I should refinish it again but am too lazy.

1:37 Frugalness is learned, I think. My parents were frugal up to the point of my embarrassment.

The only things I buy now are books and knives.

14:56 Made in the USA is my mantra.

17:14 The more money you make the more money you spend.

Always have to get my Carpo dose after watching RU-vid videos about 1A, scrapping, current events,past events, religion and et al.

I haven't been to a thrift in a while. One of the reasons is I don't have room in my house. Paintings and books were my biggest find at thrift stores.

I live in a big city. I used to walk to work. I would take short cuts; ide the coolest stuff in the garbage. I’m now, picking it up, and selling it on-line. What ever is going on, people are dumping their “stuff” and leaving this town. My motto is: take care of what you got. You only need one good pair of shoes, one good coat, etc. it’s nuts. Today I’m found a Vitamix. A 400 dollar blender.
