Great piece Charis. Especially good tips about scaffold spotting, and carrying screw drivers with you! Looking forward to more x

ask your local trash collectors about any ewaste they come across, and ask for them. tell them you're scrapping and e salvaging for projects and tools. I did that, and got 5 radios, 1 was repaired, and it's a SW radio. I got 6tvs, and saved the knobs, switches, antennas, cords, variable capacitors. I made 3 crystal radios (1can get ham radio signals!), and have made my own radio shack! also have materials from the thrift store to make tools! ask around! great video! no harm in that! and you might make more friends!

Sounds like you're well away! Bravo!

Great tips to get started with upcycling. You can find things everywhere. There is so much stuff peopel throw away on the streets but you can also ask friends, or even companies if they have stuff they throw away heavily. I started to collect tents from the rock im park festival that people leave broken after the event. And I started to cut them and crochet a bag out of it! :)

Great video! We have "Craigslist" in the united states. They have awesome free stuff. I carry tools too lol. I found some very expensive draw pulls just the other day. Stopped, unscrewed some then decided to take all the draws too! Some great idea's for upcycling draws.

I'm getting most of my freebies, like furniture, from friends and family. Just tell your loved ones you're looking for stuff and you'll be inundated with goodies 😊
