[@Man-in-da-shed]

A timely warning. THANKYOU, I wouldn’t have done it by hand anyway. But rather scary that the valves on these are only hand tight.

Good to see the process Ian... Looking forward to seeing the results from the weigh in...

[@Everythings_Adjustable]

Thanks again Ian, your adventures have bought a smile to my bowl of 'smart price' muesli 🛠👍😊

[@sharkscrapper]

I've seen some PKP extinguishers that have a small external CO2 canister for charging. But most are charged when filled. A fun little mini-series, thanks

[@Man-in-da-shed]

Thanks. I’m sick of em already

[@christinenoonie]

Thanx for all the break down tips and just another day in the "Shed" Cajun Scrapper - Louisiana

[@poosmate]

I love how that pressurisation has really flummoxed you. Looking forward to the Shorts video for Guido. Great job stacking them inside each other, bet each one weighs a pretty penny now. Take care, Poo

[@Man-in-da-shed]

10kg each.

[@rickyhall2548]

On to a tidy little number there Ian free extinguishers free blades...hopefully you get more aluminium ones buddy

[@CruiserMac]

This is becoming an epic saga; the fire bottles vs Ian ! 😁😁 Waiting for the trip to the yard now to cash in on your hard work !

[@Man-in-da-shed]

Ian won

[@paulf2529]

Hi Ian , some of these would make great caterpillar piggy banks.

[@WTFMIKE]

If they're nitrogen filled like here you're kinda right you fill it through the discharge nozzle to certain psi and weight of the bottle but no need to push the handle down to do so they valve open naturally when the pressure on the outside is greater. The other fill by a valve above the pressure guage itself

[@AdelinoGambiarras]

That is very interesting on how thy refill it up now you got me curious. Kind regards.

[@Man-in-da-shed]

I am curious about all things I take apart

[@afineliner740]

Pity you only got two aluminium ones. I'm impressed with your space saving scrapping !!. I hope you've found out by now how they work. 👍

[@kenord3437]

I think your onto it, with feeding the gas in through the outlet, thus metering the pressure as it builds up.

[@BensWorkshop]

You can make small wood burners out of the steel ones.

[@mrdando]

Looking forward to that what it weight what it pay video

[@timempson]

Ian you have to pump them up with air

[@mr1pearl]

So if not chimes ( which you'd need a tropical storm for any motion ) maybe tubular bells 🤷

[@timempson]

Get a plasma cutter make bird houses, cut them and make wind chimes, cut them in half length ways hinges make mini grills , weld 2 or 3 tubes together making a chmley for gas bottle grill

[@Man-in-da-shed]

I think creations like that will come. But for now all scrap.

[@stevebanaka6594]

Be Careful messing with canisters under pressure. l almost lost a finger.lost a lot of feeling ,been about 6 months ago. A lesson learned in Kansas

[@TheRustylungs]

Ide be tempted to try a carboot sale selling the better looking ones for say £10 each for the large ones €5 for the small if the gauge is in the green they would sell I think

[@Man-in-da-shed]

It did seem a waste to just scrap them. But if these are going to be a regular supply then I will be looking at maximising profit

[@RafalScrapper]

"one pond extinguisher... verry verry good verry verry cheap one pound extinguisher easy easy to scrap have money in your hat " lol that was my cover to one pound fish song lol you almost sound like the guy in there Ian check it out check it out you will roll on floor laughing buddy 👍

[@TheUltimateRecycler]

Who knew they made Russian doll fire extinguishers?! 🤣I'd be thinking of some better value options for them before the scrap yard Ian.

[@Man-in-da-shed]

ive so many coming now 60-80 a week that i need to just shift them till i have a bit of room to think about creative options, I as they are out of date i dont really want to sell as a fire extinguisher

[@EMO22retired]

30 years using these. You add air to pressurize the cylinder leave it standing up right. To take the pressure off by tipping it up side down puts the air by the tube with out emptying the tank to refill and have at it. Should have a air fitting to add the air.

[@Man-in-da-shed]

As I suspected thanks for confirming that.

[@tinkeringtaylor3053]

not a nice beer that Ian leaves a funny after taste in the mouth , good video plenty on.

[@Man-in-da-shed]

I’m going to do a bLind taste test, though I doubt I’ll have a problem differentiating

[@keith102955]

Awesome they are only hand tight everyone I’ve taken apart gotta use a hammer to loosen it. Great video love watching them thanks for the laugh have a great night

[@Man-in-da-shed]

A couple did need some errrr persuading 🔨

[@jameshoward8600]

You could leave the handle on and make a secret safe out of it and hide valuable items in side and no one would know hang it on the wall out in the open or put it in a cupboard

[@its_marc]

Great ♻️ idea.

[@thescrapmeister]

I always thought the bodies were aluminum... Good to know most are not!

Great idea, but will have to wait till I have more space, this lot has Been scrapped

[@JoshuaSmith-lz9tp]

Why waste the extinguisher hose by cutting it wen you could take them off of the fire extinguisher and list them on the Facebook market for some spare part’s to make a good couple £

[@Man-in-da-shed]

I never thought of that.
