  • 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!

    Lotsa snibbits, couplers, and scrap metal this time around. Near the end at 23:47-23:48 the things you didn't know what they were and thought were magnetic are called spring nuts. They can be used in various applications but I've used them to make legs for rooftop ductwork.

    Those metal things with a spring, we used to call them spring zebadies they are electrical fixing parts. we used them to hold up churchouse trunking years ago!

    I’ve adopted the word snibbets into my vocabulary, when I’m crafting I keep all my random pieces of foam board in a snibbet pile. Have a great weekend, enjoy the holiday!

    Those with the springs are “spring nuts” they slide inside unistrut to add a point of attachment for conduit or whatever.

      You ain’t lying! When I scrap I try to keep his pace. It’s not easy. I’ll be starting a CZcams channel soon about scrapping. Hopefully it’s half as good as mikes videos.

    Mike the percussion caps you saw on that yellow strip are for nail guns, they shoot nails into the concrete ore iron beams , if you use them , you have for something like that always a permit to use it. Mike the clamps you have are often used to attach sprinkler pipes to the iron beams that should not be drilled into . Greetings

    Hey Mike, don't touch that part of CRT's monitors (tube screen). They save a big amount of energy and IF you touch in a wrong place, you can be eletrocuted or cause a small explosion and break The glass of the screen. Sometimes it happens Sometimes it doesn't. MAYBE...
    Stay safe!
