Someone Scrapped an AIRPLANE!

[@boristheamerican2938]

I know someone who did that. A guy from where I work one day spent 50K on an airplane kit. He was going to put it together so he did some preperation on the garage to make it higher and after a few months lost interest and the thing sat in crates for 25 years or so and then he died.

[@rogerebert5122]

This was great. Love the variety of stuff. Keep the plane.

[@williamdeegan7840]

Good on the Jeep. Glad you didn't have to crush it. Hopefully the '45 Chevy has the same outcome. Great video

[@robertforget6369]

thats awesome kids airplane ride kids would love that good video stay cool

I swear Silas, your videos and you explaining things and joking have gotten way better, Ive been subscribed to you for a while now.

Good Evening There My Good Big Bro Silas Of Adventures Made From Scratch

[@reddog9025]

Love the way you dump the oil on the ground awesome!

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

I guess I missed that part. I’m assuming you’re new to the channel and don’t know about my oil drain tubs.

[@kevinblevins2612]

There is a container on the ground to catch the fluids

[@AndrewTwoTen]

Sad to see the Viking go. A decent cab with a seat and title is worth a few bucks here in Florida.

[@normanswake7152]

Hello Silas! you should fix the airplane into a swing for your kids! Spray paint your favorite colors onto the airplane. Airplane would look new. You could length the airplane when you fix it, adjustable seats!

[@PetriHangas]

I guess you already got rid of those wooden pallet collars. If not, try to sell them on Marketplace or somewhere. They make a good planter boxes for garden.

[@michaelguinn5736]

Morning Silas, that 3/4 ton Jeep is well worth $900!!

[@garylangley4502]

You do get some interesting things. I've lived in the deserts of California and Arizona, and as a little tip, a little squeeze of lemon or lime in water is very refreshing. It is difficult to explain, but it is very soothing.

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

When I can’t stomach plain water anymore, I run to sonic and get water with cranberry in it. Helps a ton

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

Lime water is wonderful.

[@garylangley4502]

@@AdventuresMadeFromScratch Sounds good. I'll have to try it. Right now our lemon tree is covered in lemons, so for me it will be lemon juice.

My brush cutter is on back order 😞

[@edkulk2777]

@@AdventuresMadeFromScratch Of course it is. Just like everything else. And you'll be lucky if they don't try to make you pay more for it, once it does finally show up, LOL.

[@dimievers5573]

i wasnt kidding about that adjustable wrench in that bucket silas , i like large old tools like that

[@rshutterbug47]

TOTALLY COOL STUFF

[@twisted2291]

Shame you can't sell most of that factory clean up stuff. Some of those parts could be good stock for throwing in a lathe to make spacers, washers or stand offs. But all that wood can be piled up for firewood at your cabin. I know many others don't watch your videos with a business mindset, but I do. Being an eBay reseller myself. I see money just waiting to be made all around your yards. Man I wish I lived out there. We could partner up and do really well on eBay, etsy, market place, and craigslist.

[@jjMcCartan9686]

Silas comes along Just as I was about to watch some of his older videos.😀

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

I have videos scheduled for every Saturday and Wednesday for at least the next 2 weeks!

[@frankm8533]

Damn the f150 been looking for that Supercrew model for years Around here they all rusted out I had one in 2015 it was stolen best truck I ever owned

[@leewomack3498]

Oh Silas, that beautiful glass patio table someone could have used for their patio, if it had been painted because a lot of people can't afford to buy something nice like that. My mom had one just like it with an umbrella and there were many good times using that table. You could have taken it home and put a small ad in the paper and you could have made $75 to $90 dollars. Oh well. Stay safe and may God bless. Happy metal scrapping! 🤗

[@rickballard1627]

Enjoyed watching thanks for sharing. Blessings everyone

[@rsprockets7846]

Johnathan W and Mustie are just sick with all this being scrapped

[@wardawgt5896]

Be Extra careful in all that heat Silas…🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍😎👀🙏

[@dave3657]

Your prices are reasonable, it’s just that some people will want to talk you down if you were selling a bar of gold for a dollar. But you can only do so much to sell stuff. It’s not going so much where the money is at, but where the interest is at.

[@lauraashley5237]

I love stuff like this

[@robertevans6481]

That 45 chevy truck is very cool....

[@peterbockholm3176]

I like your ideas Silas, you think outside the box. You have a very creative mind and the means to make it happen. You have the tools, machinery and know-how but most importantly you have so much cool stuff to build projects from. Take some time off now and then and build projects, it can be just as good rest and relaxation as just resting on the couch (which I somehow can't see you doing) Please share the results with us, I'm certain that I'm not the only one that's eager to see your creations.

[@gilnorton1]

Glad your getting to sell some parts and trucks. Shame all the clean parts from the factory can’t be reused as they are, but I hope you all make reasonable money on them. Stay safe and God bless you and your family. Peace

[@sadiehunt3970]

That table you crushed was pretty sweet in slow mo

[@jimmywhite990]

You do know you should save the doors. They will fit pickups

[@johnnydeville5701]

I know that you tried to sell it, but it was hard to watch that Chevy Viking get mashed! Ford helped ease the pain! Lol That '45 Chev truck is awesome! I'd be surprised if it (or at least the cab) doesn't sell! It is amazing to see all that left over brand new stuff get sold for scrap!

[@edgarrogers3706]

Another great video , Silas you never cease to amaze us. Thank you for all the adventures you take us on. Have a great weekend with the family.

Thats a lot of good wood for your bus cabin build

[@trevorwallace7315]

I think the homemade vehicle was a little loader shovel , you can tell whoever made it very skilled. good channel , watching in U.K

[@MikeVandreumel]

U should give that to ur kids they will love the plan swing

[@GrandPitoVic]

Great content brother. I enjoy ( and cry) watching your channel.

[@jeremyTallen1]

It's kinda discouraging seeing some stuff smashed or stuff like what was in those crates having to be recycled but at least it's all not just sitting somewhere not getting any use out of it and has a chance to be recycled and come back as something

[@pierrelaboom4026]

Yah,no kidding! Those collars, huge washers, copper? Who cares! Use the damn cables!!

[@guruoo]

It's sad. IMO, he's sitting on a so far untapped gold mine.

[@BAMHEIDSPINKWORKS]

Then build a reuse network 📡

[@johnconrad6263]

So use the wood crates for battries and alternators and so forth

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

I would love to and I’ll probably use some of the pallets, but they won’t accept the wood sides.

[@peterbockholm3176]

That's a Thingamajig X5000 Pro Competition GT Twin Turbo, it is/was an AWD articulated skid-steer loader. 😉

I hope you took that plane for you children.!!!

[@charlesstarlin6354]

Awesome always cool stuff always thanks 😎 👌 👍

[@davidlilly2383]

Good luck my friend.

[@deweygill1973]

1945’s were probably unused from the end of war production. Seems some of those trucks made there way into civilian hands as new vehicles were in great demand after three years of military production only. Military vehicles didn’t have chrome because of expense and glare. Either way, a 1945 civilian truck is one rare bird. I would think the title and tag would have value to a military truck enthusiast, as 1946 models were pretty much unchanged Some of the last civilian production autos and trucks actually came with wooden bumpers in 1942

[@rsprockets7846]

GIVE CRED TO GM AND FORD TO RE USE THE PARTS AND MERGE THEM INTO CIVILLIAN USE, BOEING TOOK FLYABLE B17S AND FLEW THEM FROM PLANT TO ARIZONA SCRAP YARDS DRAINED THE FUEL AND CRUSHED THE AIRFRAMES

[@normabrawner4881]

Another cool adventure thanks for taking the time to share with all of us. To bad you had to buy all that wood and stuff with that metal but I know it is what it is happens more than people realize. You could burn that wood in your junk yard cabin stove. And that swing was really cool you should take that home and put it up for your kids they would love it. Well once again another great video thank you just love watching your videos keep them coming.

[@MWL4466]

Wow !! As somebody who is in manufacturing as a machinist, thats a LOT of money in scrapped parts !! My guess is they are out of tolerance or the company went bankrupt. Or, they could be cheap Chineseium parts that that were rejected and its cheaper to scrap them than to ship them back. But holy cow !! Now if only scrap prices were like they were 3 months ago, you could have retired on that load.

[@jacobshort6528]

Those various sized pieces of stainless steel pipe looked like future sockets to me that hadn't finished being machined.
