Just found this channel last night. I can't quite explain why, but I find your scrapping vlogs incredibly satisfying to watch I've been having them run all day while I work at my desk. Comment for the algorithm!

[@ChineseDetective]

Now that's a CD haul you don't see every day! Loads of resale value there! :D

[@JacobafJelling]

My thoughts as well

[@neilo3476]

I'll be honest. I miss the days you went searching in the ice and snow and when returnable bottles were a good find. The crunch of your boots and your squishing of the finds were sounds that pleased me (not in a odd way...)

[@DumpsterDivingMillionaires]

Congratz on 100k! Been watching you since 2019 or so and love all the progress you have made! You deserve it!

[@jeremiahsmith7741]

What a great cd collection! I’m jealous. 😂

[@thubprint]

I’m a little intimidated to start going through them all!

[@wallacedequaine5904]

Nice haul young man, good to see the next generation keeping the scrapping and junking for metals alive 😎👍🏾 and a very hearty congratulations on the 100k subs!

[@susananthony2366]

Holy disc changer, batman! What an amazing CD haul!! Such wonderful early Christmas gifts for Thub! 👏👏👏👏👏 Congratulations on this fantastic milestone. It's been fun watching your climb to greatness!

[@andreabc1469]

We have Bin's for Paper, Plastic, E-Waste, Batterie, Glass and all other Stuff. Love the German Way😂

[@irhyn2300]

found the easter egg :) really sneaky

[@irhyn2300]

I thought its was just a thank you message and then at the end i realised it was a code! just got my hoodie thanks thub!

[@thubprint]

Congrats! I think that was the last one, so you just snagged it haha. Thank you for being part of this!

[@georgerodolakis6524]

Excellent show. Bravo on 100 dumpsters. Your videos are great therapy for the soul. It always fascinates me what other people throw out in different states and countries .

[@keithcrain]

SCORE on the cd's!!!!

[@omar_padilla]

I remember just typing in random letters on the KZbin search bubble and that's how I discovered this channel, at that time I was really into finding things in alleys so your channel was on the same vibe and I've been a fan since then. Wow it was just you combing the small bins and your Pontiac tracking through the snow. For a while I thought that you had snow year round lol it was rare to see a snowless video. You've come a long way and I'm proud to be Panda. Just know that because of you I always make sure you leave better than I found it! Thank you for being you my friend in a world full of sameness. I'll be here for the next 100,000!. Much love and respect from out here in Cali!.

[@thubprint]

Wait, THATS how you found me?!? That’s wild hahaha! Well I’m glad you did, it’s been a fun run so far 💙 I’m so glad I don’t have snow all year round, those crunchy leaves are pretty great

[@lorand-edmondiszlai9416]

Congratulations for the 100k, keep up the good job! Shoutout from Romania, EU !

[@adamdaley8090]

I am not left wanting for your 100k episode. Nice haul! 90's/2000's CD's of my own heart!

[@jeffstewart3342]

Right on dude, from one scrapper to another.

[@BOOT]

Tip on u-joints, use the vise to press/squeeze the caps in. Should be videos demonstrating it. Also whack on the fork ends by the shaft, to free it up after.

[@thubprint]

Oh that actually would’ve been a lot smoother, good call. Hopefully won’t have to do it for awhile though! I did watch a chrisfix video first and I did the taptaptap to get them moving smooth, cut the footage down to as short as I could though

[@BOOT]

@@thubprint Saw the tappy tap tapping, I was taught a diff way is all.

[@iangoldswain3959]

Really enjoyed the video fantastic keep up the the good work CDs wow my my childhood

[@dr.a006]

Wow! That CD collection! Lots of awesome 90s alternative rock stuff I love from my teen years and a bunch before and after that decade I like too! I could listen to most of that collection for days and days. Very jealous of you but glad you scored with that👍

[@helfarkmar5043]

Oh my word, an instant rock/metal CD collection! Congrats on the 100K

[@ScrapPalletMan]

Congratulations. Your silver play button is on its way 🤟😃

[@44davewright]

Hey Thub, super happy you hit the 100k. If that yellow pipe is natural gas line, its lined with stainless steel. Keep doin' the thing man!!

[@VetvsWorld]

I’ve gained much knowledge from creeping your vids bro. I’ve started scrapping a bit myself-but I keep the soft metals for casting. Save tons of money not having to buy ingots. Thx dude, much respect!

[@gary2255]

Nice haul of CD's keep an eye out for more black metal ones in there like the Burzum cd as they tend to hold their value, same with alot of the metal ones to be fair.

[@lyonharris1292]

Enjoy your videos. I'm not sure if I missed something or not, but what about the dumpster with all the rolls of wire??? I think it was coated wire of some sort......

[@bradleywalsh4103]

@ 53:30... looks like an air arc gouging rod for removing metal. We often use them for stripping weld or removing base metal

[@alanlepard6207]

Well done, Thub -- congratulations on the significant milestone! We are proud of you for celebrating -- that's important to do in life.

[@MadelineRose-ep7fj]

Loved this video! You could build a cabin with everything coming free from those massive construction sites. Be safe.😊

[@farttart597]

This is going to be great!!! (no, I have not made it through the whole thing yet but I know it's good)

[@Kreacher1974]

Should've gone back to the place where the Starbucks rack was and the dumpster with all the rails.g

[@mollynakamori]

Oh man. I have so much to say, as usual, but will edit myself. Not the truck again! How do you keep such a sunny disposition with all that frustration? 42 is definitely the answer to life, the universe, and everything - what a find! Ok - LOVE the Easter egg - You are welcome. You just tickle me silly, Thub.

[@freddabunnyadventures6637]

Hey thub. I’m up in oil country and love ❤️ your content. I’m also a scrapper. I just wanted to mention that you can be arrested in Alberta for touching a locked dumpster. If I see a locked dumpster I do not go through it. Some day we will have to do a BoA dumpster diving thingy. I haven’t got scrapping videos on my channel yet but would love to collaborate sometime.

[@swifty2844]

Enjoyed this see u next time mate

[@larrybuckles5180]

I loved this, thanks for taking us along.

[@danielcoulthardjr6608]

That bit at 27:17 happened to me with a shopping cart that I thought was wholly up the slope. It wasn't. Almost bought a Tesla

[@eveengineer4147]

Already up to 102k better start planning you next special :P. You never said if you were allowed to grab those chunks of prep and all those coils of wire. Also as some who has watched you for at least half a year and has lived in Calgary for my whole life. Today was the first time I ever recognized where you were as you were checking bins.

[@Ljokerz]

29:59 a Orange drill with a battery !!! AND CHARGER

[@westermanneric]

Score! Thanks Thub! Congrats on 100k, I’m pumped to see the truck back too! 💯

[@spencerboehrns5522]

100k man. Aweaome.

[@cocopufer5667]

winky wink!! one SAWEEEEET sheatshirt going to Lacey Wa USA!!!

[@thubprint]

Nice! Let me know how the black fill turned out? Glad you found it!

[@johnkufeldt3564]

Nice job on the U-joint. Cheers from Lake Bonavista. I always watch from one end to yhefinish, Been watching for a few years(off and on) Trying to catch up, gotta help a home town boy. Bonavista at ya.

[@thubprint]

Well hello there, warm greetings from a fellow local! Boba vista is one of those neighborhoods I never tried bottle picking in, maybe I should cruise through on a scrap run sometime. Glad you’re here though, I appreciate the support!

[@tghepburn1390]

Yes, yes, I liked it very much! A byproduct is showing how many dumpsters it takes to get a good haul of treasure. Some people think it's much easier [than it looks]. That CD collection looks very similar to mine, scanned it in slow-mo and found 2 I'm interested in. Congratulations on the 100k!🏆

[@trasieinkersole491]

A man of many talents.

[@jaffe28]

Thub has identified he's not a thrash fan :)

[@berto6063]

A whole hour of Thub!!! We're not worthy!

[@DianaRea-nv8zc]

Congratulations. That was fun!!!

[@escapegoat3472]

That Aerospoke wheel at around 3:15 is worth a bit. Shouldve kept that. They sell for about £75, used.

[@johngastineau653]

Looking forward to the next video. 👍👍👍

[@its_marc]

Well deserved with the 100k Thub. Good on you.

[@JacobafJelling]

26:25 mate you need to keep an eye out for some more sturdy wood so you can strengthen those sides somehow. 32:00 what a fricking beautiful day also

[@dominictuminello4266]

I've been driving garbage truck here in western Pennsylvania for just a little over 20 years. The company I work for calls the police and presses theft charges if they catch you going through a recycle tote like that removing aluminum cans.

[@thubprint]

That’s kinda wild. They don’t ticket bottle pickers around here because most people would rather have bottle pickers than carjackers

[@tylertillema2630]

The pipe can lmao 🤣 memories for sure on to bigger better things 🎉

[@tatchley3049]

Congrats n the 100k keep doing the thing 😊

[@ltdan2990]

love the videos. Found a 5k generator today looking for scrap :) I need to work on my generator breakdown techniques it was a little messy :)

[@jpansamerica]

Omg that metal collection holy crap

[@douglloyd3802]

Your switch board device is for power metering, the parts should mostly be brass and copper, looks more like tin coated copper or brass, even short strippable copper wires are included.

[@stephensmith3708]

Now listen my Crazy Canadian Bohemian Cousin, when you're done, go back for them woods for the on coming winter! And that's an ORDER! Don't want my cousin to freeze this on coming freezing on slaught..... Super nice haul!

[@thubprint]

Yes chef! 🫡

[@bigcountryscrapper6885]

Congratulations

[@larsatkinson6491]

The u-joint was the bonus scrap 😂

[@Zacktheman15]

this is epic

[@alexmurphy9025]

That whole steel frame you passed on was the remnants of a rooftop AC unit! If you can find the people who put it there, you might be able to make a deal. Big money in those!

[@thekiller1090000]

Congratulations for the 100k, keep up the good job thub

[@larsatkinson6491]

29:59 you didn't want that drill and battery charger??

[@weefreedavielittle]

Mate congrats on your 100k thing . Treasure searching for treasure 🥰 . GET THAT TRUCK FIXED lol xx

[@ericprater4017]

Congratulations on 100K! Great Job! U-Joints, if one goes, guess what?

wb truck . glad you got the truck back . scrap on

[@ryanphillips1388]

Good job making that truck repair, so fast

[@bestest7239]

throwing my cds out felt bad but also good, considering things

[@thubprint]

I hope it wasn’t your cd collection I found! I didn’t want to speculate on camera what the reason behind it was, I’m sure the owner of this collection knew they could sell them or do other things as well but no doubt they made the decision for their own reasons 👍

[@Dead-Dog-Rising]

Like #1000 here ❤

[@jroady79]

I think I saw the Easter egg

[@joshp6061]

6:47 Nice 45:39 Nice 53:14 Pretty sure that’s a copper coated carbon (graphite) arc gouging rod for removing metal

[@kellymorgan2273]

Just got a hoodie. Tysm!

[@thubprint]

Nice one, hope you enjoy it! I’m really pleased with how they came out so I’m crossing my fingers the black fill doesn’t turn out weird

[@Ljokerz]

28:07 " I'm a drywall taper and that mixing bit is worth 150$ brand new

[@cocopufer5667]

"hot beer" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@vincedibona4687]

Aha! We now know your full name - Drake Calzones! You couldn’t hide it forever, Mr. Calzones! You don’t look all that Hispanic, but we are onto you now!!! 🤣😂👍🏻

Ohhh I should’ve known it would slip eventually 😆

100k subs celebration with some new coveralls, neon orange, blue or neon green😊

[@dtbloomer]

Nice lynyrd skynrd drop!!

[@steelisreal4313]

Thub, ur one of the few scrappers I watch that clip of both ends of the cords. Everyone else leaves the plug end on. Do u think it really makes a difference in payout?

[@thubprint]

It does to me, my scrapyard will downgrade the bin if I leave the ends on. I can go ahead and leave them on if it suits me to do so, but the $/lb is going to drop

[@chadfortman8098]

Love your counting you not be working as bank teller 🤪😂

[@steelisreal4313]

@2:02 Someone be smoking that Devils Lettuce...

[@godofthecorn3011]

Great vid. Why didn’t you go back to the walk in dumpster by the Starbucks to get all that stuff?

[@ethanpemberton9011]

That rod you found is a copper coated carbon arc gouging rod. Its a anti welding rod in a way

[@lordmoods5706]

Fuck the scrap those CDs were nostalgic

[@empirefinds]

Amazing episode even a driveshaft overall thrown in. The editing at the end was awesome work brother. Listen they could be two hour long episodes I would still watch until the end. Regards from England

[@thubprint]

Thanks so much! 😄 the unexpected quick repair was annoying but at least it made the day more interesting! I think I was getting worried at the end and trying to make things as short as possible haha. A 2hr episode might be a bit much for most folks but I very much appreciate the positive affirmation!

[@empirefinds]

@@thubprint not a problem you are a light in a very dark world keep it up brother.

[@E-BikingAdventures]

So what happened with those spools of steel cable?

[@JacobafJelling]

53:32 soldering

[@juliaborne-uf2fs]

What state are you in and I see you collect cans and bottles do they charge a deposit for them?

[@dianapurina1052]

What about the orange drill at 29.58

[@marksteps1712]

I really enjoyed that Thub, I think we'd need to find out the schedule of the bin lorries for the best juice and go the day/night before or even early doors on the day, you know to catch the stuff they don't want folk to see they've thrown away/owned LOL. I'm fairly new to the channel but just want to thank you for both enterainment and information #Infotainment I've been enjoying bouncing back through your content Thub, I wonder how you'd go about a freezer (mini, chest, and under the counter styles) and whether it'd be worth the effort on any of the three? Peace and love all and stay safe x (Oh I love the better than you found it mantra a great ethos)

[@julianvelarde464]

35:00 Easter egg right here

[@pxv990]

Could tou make a video on the difference in prices about battery and the led that they contain ?…

[@ryanbaker-dm7mx]

Hows come you you didn't check the green ones what the difference between the blue and green ones

[@user-un9gt8rz4v]

That rod looking thing that you pulled out of the dumpster that was a graphite rod that has a Copper coating they’re used for like cutting. It’s not actually metal though.

[@thubprint]

For cutting? I wouldn’t have guessed that!
