check this out a little trick good to go alright I'll tie it down though such awesome day the birds think so as well my mine Gasca Rossum sure it is full of yucky fine stuff it's electric still as the tags on it but it's stained up Walter Payton get my truck Walter it's a huge motor some sort it's back in my kind of day are you kidding me that thing's a beast I also go in here what world war lights Oh who's this Marlboros a federal court order philip morris blah Blee blah to make this statement about the health effects of second-hand smoke I can't get to it let me guess it's not good unlike this clock which is super cool oh dude that is beyond cool I like it get in Montreux one more pass and I'm out of here good stuff that a full computer see slim on size big on reliability so four gigabytes of RAM one terabyte hard drive early Windows 10 I bet the hardware is not in there I'm interested now is it in there interesting but Court four gigabytes of RAM doesn't do very much at all wait a minute no not the clock this Payton Jersey did someone really pay $300 for this Mitchell and Ness NFL so just a little bit of yeah Wow 300 bucks it is a really nice Jersey there's no doubt this is this is the real deal besides the oil which I know maybe they can come out less you want to do is like wash it and like make that permanent if it's not I don't know how about this I'm gonna um if you know a trick to get I think this is actual like engine oil on here or actual grease if you know how to get this out before I do anything please let me know in the comment section I'm gonna wait to do anything with this Jersey until I know how to get or try to get those stains out I don't know it might be permanent but I don't want to wash it and make something permanent that could be removed I think aluminum yep weighs like one pound seriously I could throw this up right 50 feet Wow that's the thing about alumina it's so light and the price is dropping oh we're gonna do this something like that [Music] [Music] Paris or Paris or so just now a guy drove up and I had that flagpole and he said hey how much for that flagpole I'm like I don't know couple bucks you want to give me three bucks for the the flagpole so I brought some of this stuff in here so I just want to see if this tree worked and the light worked and sure enough it does big-time I'm gonna guess 4,100 maybe not even that exactly 4,100 Wow 4,000 one-twentieth sit for a second briefly that's funny you know I'm just gonna pull up right to the side just throw everything off without even dealing with the tailgate at all also a person yeah just at my shop a person saw these chairs she's like can i buy one of those chairs off you here's the dollar I'm like of course so she got the little ottoman that comes with it and the chair but they're all the rust WC on the ends so we picked the I pulled these all off the truck it's I give up I am we pulled them all off in the truck and to see which one fit best and so you have to get on with the ottoman I'm like they're kind of rusty maybe I should have pulled up some tangley stuff here that piece of scrap wanted to get me oh yeah can't recycle you and your tiki torch friend that's kind of cool I think the only thing I keep is that star and you wonder why fast-forward the scrap part does it take so long we think the rest I can just throw right over the side come I keep this bike do something with it so I'm keeping you one two three four five fly butterfly flutter bye butterfly and we're good except for the story just stepped on all right I'll see how much 3960 so 140 pounds is so nice and peaceful it's like I can hardly hear anything you're going oh yeah thanks for hanging out with me I appreciate it with this whole journey I can tell that I'm getting a that YouTube is promoting my channel to folks that might not otherwise have watched scrapping channels before and yeah I got this there this one guy he's commented on multiple multiple times and it's not necessarily a negative comment it's um and you've heard of a false a belief that sometimes we can be wrong about something but fully believe it and false beliefs are all I have them we all have them and it takes other people to pull out of me or are any of us those false beliefs it takes effort so this person said why would anyone scrap steel ever isn't isn't it only worth 2 cents a pound and don't fit and don't say it all adds up he puts that in parentheses and says because it doesn't you spend more on gas just grabbing those pieces you get for the whole truck loaded with scrap steel and and I get the sentiment why would you do something but it's much more than me trying to respond to so yeah it is worth it because obviously he doesn't fully understand yet because this I think this is the first day or two that he's been watching some of these videos and so Dan and I so I answered him you know why why would you scrap steel elaborate you know that's a stupid thing in the world I said because it's fun and it's the right thing to do there's fresh air and sunshine awesome people to meet and I said of course six feet social distancing three years ago when I started scrapping the old adage came to mind do something that you love everything will fall into place I think if the adage is something you love and you'll never work a day in your life and I said do something that you love everything will fall into place and it certainly has just by scrapping steel my life has taken such an amazing and unimaginable turn in pursuit of happiness the American dream
