44:49 - those would be some of the discs for some of those empty cases shown earlier. And those wrestling figurines. They haven't vandalised them. What you do is adjust the limbs and bodies of the figurines into wrestling holds on any of the other figurines and the kid[s] go, " And Joe has Zombie in a half-nelson. ". And then they re-contort the entwined pairing and then, " And now Zombie has Joe in a triple lock. ". And, woops, maybe a head or arm comes loose.

[@PolyProphet]

Yes you’re probably right about the dvds though I didn’t want to sift through and match them at the time. Some of the figs had snapped plastic so I decided to leave those. Cheers Jongle 🤙🤙

whats the story behind that mangled computer on the right of your storage unit? i keep seeing it every time 😂

[@PolyProphet]

Haha when I first picked it up I went to scrap the board, but it has security screws, and I didn’t have my set! So it’s patiently waiting 😅

[@nachostuff]

That patio table wasnt aluminum? 45:45 Looked like some sports cards in that same pile. Whopper of a day - nice run. Happy Hunting.

[@PolyProphet]

Hey mate. Yeah it probably was though I try to avoid glass 😅

[@cameronhamer9432]

Those brass fittings welded on by rust just use a big hammer, you need a 18” pipe wrench . I’ve got twenty or more , every time l see one l grab it . All different sizes up to three footers . Always interesting from up top next time 👍🇨🇦

[@danielmusumeci661]

Are the doors and hoods on the bbq stainless steel?

G'day Poly, I've been offline for the past couple of weeks so catching up now with your recent posts, you really do get to pick up a wide variety of valuable scrap and resale stuff, those wrestling figurines are very popular in the USA (Froggy Flips channel), just wondering what platforms you use to sell the resale items ? Cheers and keep up the great work with your channel, Peter J

Great video Poly. Looking forward to the next one. I love that your videos are a bit longer than most. I very much enjoy sitting down for an hour to see what you find in the trash. Congratulations on another great payday. I missed your answer when I previously asked the following question: What are the square metal tanks with the white plastic liners originally used for?

@@PolyProphet not sure Poly, I haven't seen you use it. A Jemmy is a bar about 2 ft long and has a bend on one end with a cut out on the end like a nail pulling hammer and the other end is slightly bent with a flat end. Very useful very strong tool for jemmying things apart.

[@PolyProphet]

G’day mate. It’s an 8x5 with a meter cage and 1900mm drawbar. The builder offers a cage and ramp for a mower or a large toolbox on the drawbar but I chose to keep it clear. The wires are the brakes 🙂
