Seems like the most precious item, to a lot of fans, you left behind was.... "THE RED LID" LOL!😆

Just for you Mike; The Solinst 122 Oil Water Interface Meter is easy to use and gives accurate, reliable measurements of oil level (product) and thickness in tanks and wells. The 122 Interface Meter is ideal for DNAPL & LNAPL. The Solinst Model 103 Tag Line uses a weight attached to a laser marked cable, which is mounted on a sturdy free-standing reel.

I remember my wife and I collecting multicolored carpet samples and sewing them together and making a colorful carpet for our little den. We were proud of it and had it for years until we moved 😊

You sir are a positive fellow. It's contagious my friend, try to never lose that quality. Keep diving safe

My favorite part about watching you dumpster diving is when you punch the trash can 🤘🤣🤘

You should have taken the lid to the Xmas container. Most people “women” like the lids too😀

Why do I find watching dumpster diving so relaxing?

Mike you are one awesome dude 😀 I been scrapping for years here in Virginia. At one point I was able to start a small lawn service just off the lawn equipment people threw away and I was able to clean and fix up. Most of the time it's a clogged carb. I just take them apart and clean them. And some of it I resell

Fiber Jumpers - LC/LC Multimode. Aqua color and Orange are usually Multimode. Yellow jacket is usually Single Mode. Anytime you have have questions on Telecomm stuff, just ask me. The Panduit items are for mounting shelves/Equipment into Equipment racks/bays. I buy this stuff as well. Looks like a lot of the dumpsters you are looking through are behind central offices.

The jolly scavenger! 💕💗💗💓💟😂😂💕💕stay safe Mike

Hi thanks for having me along for the ride looks like you scored some stuff good job always like your videos thru these crazy times were in thanks for everything you do your awsome as always look foward to more great videos

Your videos remind me when I was young and would go to the mall Sunday mornings and collect aluminum cans people would drop all over the parking lot. $3-7 free money was good stuff back in the 80's. Enjoy your enthusiasm.

The 122 Interface Meter measures water and product level and thickness, accurately to 1.0 millimeter or 1/200 ft. It measures floating and sinking hydrocarbon, non-aqueous product layers (LNAPL and DNAPL), using a 16 mm (5/8") diameter pressure-proof probe. The 122 is certified intrinsically safe, and is ATEX certified. Readings are taken from accurate laser marked flat tape up to 300 m (1000 ft). The tape is very easy to clean.

I am in the market for one, at the right price, but trouble is whether its complete (its not), whether its still ATEX i.e. explosion proof (it needs repair as the electrodes are exposed so probably not), whether it works (it was afterall in the dumpster), and whether the speaker still works (would need to test it). So as is you would have to sell it as spares and repairs, prior to repair at Solinst, its still an amazing haul though...

Gotta love the short shorts. You’re rockin them

I love the Welcome Aboard clock Mike. Stay safe. See ya on the next

Glad to see you sporting new gloves 💪 As always a blast watching you this great day. 🙂

Yea like others I was surprised Mike didn't take the Red tote lid..lol also There was an empty blue tote in the next dumpster. Seems like if he kept an empty tote to take into the dumpster with him to collect the small pieces if would make things easier.. And to use later to separate brass and copper ect in.

I love your energy!

It's probably because these dumpsters belong to companies(who don't have the time or manpower to waste on sorting trash and recycling) not individuals, as well as the fact that Texas doesn't have as advanced a recycling program as Minnesota.

Hey mike good finds again you sure meet a lot of hose in those dumpsters

Great afternoon Mike got good stuff there

10:50 I’ve discovered those phone things with all the little wire clips are brass. Take the back off somehow and they all come out. They are coated with tin or something, scratch them they are yellow brass!

Great finds. Enjoyed your video 😎 😊

You didn't take that RED LID for the TOAT! You was a little excited for the CHRISTMAS GEAR!!!

The old perfume. It can be very valuable even if partly used! EBay won't let you sell open or used perfume, but but can be sold under collectables. Shell.Belle on KZread has some good perfume sales I in her chi-ching videos. You really know how to work a dumpster!

Hello Mike from Philippines. Always watching your videos here. Careful.

Interface meter looks like a measuring device I used in utility construction to measure the depth of a shaft

If you still have those things that the catwire was attached to those little metal pieces are copper and they're pretty easy to take apart

I guess I'm not the only one who was thinking, grab the top..!!

Glad you do what you do man. You are funny as neck. Keep up the vids.

It’s a fish stick for fishing wires thru walls, you can attach them together and add hooks on the end.

The spoole with the string is a blowline, to vacume or blow trough conduit to measure the length of the wire you need

The stripe on the red roll is a led light. cool thing.

You're awesome and funny

Solinst Model 122 Interface Meters are easy-to-use and give reliable, accurate measurements. A steady tone and light indicate LNAPL or DNAPL. Intermittent signals indicate water. Solinst laser marked flat-tape is available in lengths up to 300 m or 1000 ft. The Flat Tape is durable and easy to decontaminate

Hey Brother Mike, you should video how you separate the different types of metals so that people can get into dumpster diving and pick up a few dollars. A few dollars could help feed their families and get them clothes, shoes and anything else that they are needing.

The metal hooks are called J. Hooks. For hanging cable above ceilings. They are not cheap.

Gotta be strong !!

You should show your scrap yard runs. People like to see prices.

You crack me up!!

Mike I might be intersted in some of that fiber optic cable stuff..

I remember years ago scraping cardboard and it was paying good money for it.I don’t remember why but it was in the winter with snow on the ground. I had a source and did real 👍 I would have loved to come across a load like that.

You are a certified diver. Gotta be young and strong. I am now old and delapaded so all diving is out. You are fast, but some stuff gets damaged more getting it out as compared to when it went in. As they say in the Army, some ends up "FUBAR"!
