Man, it amazes me on how much scrap wire these companies throw away. About 16yrs ago i started working for a manufacturing company and i constantly seen the maintenance crews throwing air hose fittings and wire in the garbage, i started picking it out once i got comfortable working the new job, save it up for 8 or 10 months at a time makes for a nice little bonus from time to time.

You need to get a lock picking set they are inexpensive and with a little practice it's pretty easy. That way you could keep or sell the items you find that are lockable. Love your video's keep em coming. Your big time fan.

Have to get a rod implanted in my lower back this yr and a hip replacement and knee replacement on top of that! Getting old sucks!

@@genehasenbuhler2594 I had a surgery on L4/5 to remove some leaked disk core. It happened while lifting something. It was two months ago. Still haven’t fully recovered but I can live normally without pain. Before that I also thought I’m strong and can take on everything.

Looks like Thermocouples and should be Platinum and Palladium worth thousands of dollars.

It's a scope cleaner. Scope as in the ones they run down throat or up the butt.

MIKE! That was back breaking! You do have a strong will - very admirable for sure.

You are so funny..making my day 2 years later, cool Mike thanks😊

[@jimwaldo4200]

The temperature probes are usually Platinum. Check it out!

[@ja-canadian5451]

I agree, I saw what looked like a Thermocouple on that first one. We recover our Thermocouple wire during rebuilds, and once we get a little bit we send it to be recycled. Last time a letter size envelope held $40,000 worth of Platinum and Palladium.

[@angien168]

Hope you making video of scrapping out that lab equipment. Nice haul. 😊 Happy Anniversary to your grandparents! 🥂🍾

[@husky500cr]

Wow, the oven is space technology. Maybe you can put it in your spaceship you are building so you can cook a Hot pocket in space.

WTG Mike keep up all the good work scrapping. It is s hard living but the rewards are sweeter. Next I am getting a melting pot to melt all of the soft metals like copper and brass and aluminum into bars. There is another scrapper out of Australia that melts them into metal bars. Peace

Looking back at the videos from months ago. If Mike the Scavenger only had a place to store many of those items that have found and then Brocken down! Would like one day being able to see a video of selling at the scrapyard items accumulated over several months for a huge payout just like the one our Aussie friend E-Waste Ben recently had a 16k payout for e-waste. I know Mike the Scavenger can make it happen 👍

Hi bud nice video I noticed you missed a set of brass handles and hinges in the dumpster with the door

[@jaroslavstastny4400]

Anyways, if you find lab machines in the dumpster like this time, always try to be as gentle with them as possible and NEVER tear them down before you try to sell them or at least find out what they are. Such lab machines are ridiculously expensive and even if broken, they might still have a significant value. Manufacturers of those often intentionally make them from custom non-standard parts, which you have to buy from them and of coure they are overpriced, so many people are looking for such broken machines for spare parts. And if they can be fixed, they have even more value.

[@evanmiller6541]

I know this is 2 years old but those things are rubber eraser wheels. We use them at work to remove adhesive from emblems on cars.
