Scrapping a GAS METER 

The music is techno fart noises while you scrap a gas meter lol.

I always knew it would be something cool inside one of those

The way you get the steel thread inserts out is via an acetylene torch for 30 seconds or hit it with a chop grinder. I recommend having a pile of them ready to go before doing so.

Thanks Mike

I wonder if you spin the gear if you can make a pump

Just curious… did you pressurize it to see if that bad spot was leaking?

Make sure you turn off the gas before you perform this task!

AnZing video, but the anxiety inducing music made it harder to appreciate.

Bro has a 10 year olds room lol

Complains about the soundtrack? I wanna hear that song on my player...

Interesting video, but what’s with the 90’s porno music soundtrack?

Music killed it will not be seeing any more of this channel

If all else fails Use a Hammer!!!!

as a person who refurbishes gas meters, this was painful to watch

Thumbs up for the mute button.

Music is absolutely horrible 😫😫

Thanks Mike I all ways wondered what was inside of one of those

Very cool! It works off a diaphragm, the gas inflates and deflates it spinning the spyrograph mechanism.

Good to see you Mike

good stuff mike watching your video's got me into recycling for cash thanks man

Ah okay. That bellows thing convulses and makes the spyrograph thing move thus making the gauge advance.

I'd keep the meter part with the dials. Looks kind of fun to spin. Those bellows kind of look like a speaker. I wonder if they sound any good. Boomin bass.

That was fascinating - thanks

Interesting - especially since I doubt many of us are going to have a meter show up on our scrapping benches. :)

Always injoy u scrapping

Enjoyed the video ... that was interesting to see .. (Like #60)

Angle grinder: Does what a Sawzall can't !

Great video Mike. Yes, you can get these on eBay. I have about eight or nine of that size you scraped for sale and over 100 of the residential size for sale on eBay. All new. If the contractor would like my eBay store information please let me know. Thanks

I’ve always wondered what the insides of these looked like.

Interesting informational video . "Music" sounds like weird concert on Revenge of The Nerds .

very interesting!!

Hey welcome back amigo 😃❤️👊

Iron man is back!

i need to know that background track name, share please

I recently scrapped a vintage coin-operated gas meter. it had a lovely clockwork and switching mechanism all made from brass (so magnets wont slow down the meter!)

That's crazy how much scrap has gone down. Nope much money in scrapping those. Not really worth the time at all. Still a blast to watch.

Poor little Petette.

I scrap about 3,000 lbs of gas meters every 2 weeks

I build these. R-275 I believe

i always wonder how much time people waste doing nothing like watching tv or movies which is not worth anything but taking five minutes to make a few cents is a waste of your time and not worth it .....my dad always told me you have to make a nickel to make 100 bucks .....he meant that it all adds up them nickels become dollars and he must of known something when he died in 1999 he had 2.75 million in worth

Music is a 5-10% too loud

The music is way to much. Runs me up the wall. Sorry but hell it grates on your nerves.

The music is too loud and bad.

Stop your fucking around and get a decent grinder and turn down that shit music ... It;s driving me Batshit..?//
