He's the real deal, if he did make more KZread money, you KNOW he would just drag more old iron home. I explain it to my wife like this: it's tough to have a person be really really good at fixing stuff, without them tinkering on old junk, so she gets to look at my yard art, but when the furnace breaks and it's -40° outside, I can fix it in like an hour, vs having to wait till 2026 for a repair guy to come fix it.

It will cost the previous owner too much to clear. The work and transportation will cost more than the value. I hope he keeps it all besides of potential chemicals in the "keep out" box

Actually, he can make enough money with what's left there to pay for the property. Those diesel engines, generators, ect. are still worth money. Lot's of scrap metal too, although the prices are a little low right now.

So to get rid of junk, you bought a place with a mass quantity of junk? Masterful move! Wow that is a lot of stuff!

I can't wait to see wat you do with all that junk treasure

This is my absolute favorite channel. I can’t wait to see what you do with the new property.

This is the dream! An old mine with a radioactive truck.

“I wonder if you could build a shed out of desks?” You are asking the right question!

You are an interesting human being! I like your view on things that most people would consider junk. Lots of good ideas come from your channel and I'm really impressed with your know how. You live a life most of us tinkerer's could easily envy. I would be genuinely be interested in your worldviews. Anyway i really like this channel and i enjoy your "can do" attitude " and skill set. Keep up the videos as i no longer really enjoy the videos of the KZreadrs that have made it "big". There is a lot to be said for those that can do much with what they have. Thank you Sir!!

The bins with the train coupler are ore cars used underground. Look like 5 ton cars. If they have a wheel on the side its a camel back side dump. They were usually pulled with a large battery powered locomotive.

I'm here for it; I cleaned out hoarder homes for 15 years, and worked at a rock quarry/sand mine that doubled as a racetrack sometimes..and had an 80 acre recycled materials section...so you could say this is right up my alley. Not to mention this is one of my favorite YT channels, thanks man.

It's a hoot exploring that place. Thanks for taking us along and congrats on your new treasure trove.

Great video, awesome property, tons of potential. All the junk is sweet, that power wagon with the atomic symbol on the door is amazing.

Awesome project, looks like a year's wages in just scrap. I'd be wary of leaving anything of value (Like the quad) up there though.

Thanks for all the great videos last year! Looking forward to more in 24!!

I want to see that 27 liter caterpillar and air cube thing run

everything about this channel i like and envy. New Mexico, the machinary, the "go for it" attitude. and that place looks like a mecca of fun.

I used to work on those air cube compressors on offshore oil rigs back in the seventies/eighties.Fantastic machines. Huge output. Need to use turbine oil in them to stop the valves coking up.

You are living the dream my friend! Know that we all live vicariously though you! Keep it coming!

I found your channel about a month ago and I watched every single one of your videos in order. I'm glad I caught up! I'm really looking forward to the new stuff this year.

Low-Buck Garage and Pole Barn Garage are becoming two of my favorite channels and I'm not a mechanic. EDIT : That property you bought with all the rusty gold is like Heaven ! I can only imagine cruising around on your ATV going on a treasure hunt and finding it !!!

What fun! I can't wait to see you get those old diesel engines running!

Projects for a lifetime! You’re gonna need an army! 😂

Man, that place is heaven! You have a live time worth of content now! The metal alone is worth the cost! I got a storage barn next time over few years ago to clear my home. Now I spent several times a month dropping and picking up “stuff”. You will end up with two sets of everything also. Have fun!

I'm four plus hours from my storage. I hate the drive there....but once I arrive......glorious! Here is what happened to me. I went from being scared to leave something of value..... to wishing I could take everything to storage and only bring back the things I was working on. Happy New Place in the New Year!

Crikey ! you've bought a small fortune in scrap metal alone. 👍 Can't wait to see what comes from this lot. Happy new year. 😎

Free, is always better. Casually mention to the previous owner that it they "dont want to worry about cleaning the place up, they can just leave it" you sir, are now set for life with the "low buck garage" theme. Soooo much stuff, needed a place to store "said stuff" so you bought a place with more stuff! Absolutely genius! 👍👏

You're doing it right because we're having fun!

Low Buck adventures galore

The important thing about stuff is that you can never have too much of it. You may have the wrong stuff, but that just means you have to have more stuff. To make sure you have the right stuff. When you need it.

Pressure vessel at 15:58 is made by autoclave engineers, they have been building HP stainless vessels like that since the 1930’s, submarine tech and reactor tech too. That needle valve on the end is still commonly used today and its end connection is good for 60,000 psi.

Big metal cone on top. Curved glass walls underneath. Seems like you could scrounge up some metal beams, etc., for the structure! Going to need a boom on the half track.

as for those big cone things maybe just stand them up and cut a door in them looks like they'd make a decent little storage shed That place is going to be awesome I can't wait to see all the things you're going to do there

Buck on the snowmobile was a funny sight for some reason.

😂 I got goosebumps looking at all that junk 😂 I would keep it all 😂🎉 Happy New Year

What a cool piece of property! I know that it is a long way from "civilization" but that is one of its best features. You can do all most anything you want to do out there! I would be thrilled to have something like this. If your RV bus can handle the road to the property, you could live on your property part of the time if you wanted to! Anyway, thanks for showing us around and please keep us updated on the progress out there. 😊

This is such a cool property! Looking forward to an update video and more on all the stuff they leave

I could walk around there for days 🤩

my idea would be to make a "small town" out of all the stuff that it can be more organized, so there would be a furniture store(put all the kitchen ranges, fridges, sinks etc,) hard wood store( all types of wood that isn't rotted, some tables, chairs) hard wear strore( scrap metal, drums, glass) engine yard, and then a car renovation/repair shop near where a race track in the future would be. maybe even check if there is a long enough strip to make a drag strip/ Runway. could be pretty fun

Just fell into Heaven!! Plenty of project starters and projects not to start. How could one average home brew mechanic stumble into a candy store like this!! Amazing!! I don't know what you are keeping or scrapping out, there is a piece I would be interested in buying if possible.

I bought a place like that about 20 years ago, all it had was fields woods and a 100+ year old barn. Still enjoy going there and playing with the tractor, dump truck, bucket truck etc. Your new place comes with a lot more stuff!!! It will make an excellent off-grid retirement home once the kids move out.

The new expansion / overflow property looks amazing! I am shocked you wanted all that stuff cleared out. So much looks so useful!

Your going to need an excavator with grapples and semi truck with big trailer The glass would be cool for a greenhouse or a house built into a hill. Excavator to dig out the hill. Got furniture too… hmm so much potential.

That big thing is for air conditioning they put them on a roof and they were like a Radiator and the system use ammonia to make it work. But that was years ago. So happy you found this place great video.

They were called cooling towers when I did hvac work in the eighties.

I need to live next to an abandoned mine, that place looks awesome. I'd keep all the junk and drag it to one corner and call it a day. I'd try to get the ghost town as part of the deal too.

Seems like rattlesnake heaven, when temps are warmer.

The bird part got me laughing so much

Your Dad is going to poop himself when he sees what you bought. Prepare to move the blue bus out there for him to spend next spring.

Looks like a good buy. Nice to have all that material and the land. Enough projects there alone to add to your to do list. Lots of fun. You'll be able to build a great commentary box for the race track from all the glass!

I hope you brought some of that plastic back to make a new set of drive gears for the snowmobile

I'd have a lot of fun scrapping that stuff. all I need is my truck, tailer, plasma cutter and generator.

My dad bought a 1968 Jeep Jeepster when I was 14. Thought it was coolest looking Jeep

PARADISE! And I AM a scrapper! BTW, copper/brass radiators are worth $2/lb, IF you remove any attached steel from them. I'd tell the previous owner, "Dont worry about moving this junk, leave it all!"

As an old miner, I'd tell them don't bother cleaning up. Lots of cool stuff out there.

Great video, who doesn't like an adventure?!

I wish we in England could live like you rock on man 😊 Kenny from London

Man I would have so much fun cleaning that place up! Super cool spot.

I can’t explain with words how much I love you. If you ever need a kid that may or may not be over 50 please let me know.

all I see is a lot of good metal, stuff to get running and find a use for, but mostly I see is A LOT of good video material

So much more room for activites I'm really excited to see what you do with that property and the projects you get into

What a great place! More please.

👍 Now that looks like fun 😉

Having lived on an old gold mine for many years, the amount of cool and useful items and parts is always an excellent addition to the goldberg.

So much room for activities and junk, brilliant spot.

Now *THAT* is the kinda property to buy James! 😁👍

You have a wicked sense of humour.

my wife watched this with me and was shaking her head, this is exactly what im like and something i would do. lol

holy shit. i'd ask the owner NOT to remove any of that stuff, pure gold. just get it organised.

Lets hope the previous owner doesn't clear your stuff off the site . That's one hell of a bargain by the sound of it ! Are you moving there for good? Hold on to your old place until the developers NEED your land , then they can pay you BIG BUCKS for it . I enjoy your videos , thanks for sharing and good luck with your new place

That is awesome, what a treasure trove of stuff. I can't wait to see what's behind those locked steel doors.

That power wagon is so rad!

Glad you're having fun, James

My OCD wants to organize that mine equipment yard. LOL! For those thinking all the metal is worth big money, price steel scrap Vs gas or diesel. It would cost more in fuel than he would recoup in the scrap metal unless he finds a loads worth of copper or aluminum. You may have to do a lien sale action on what's left in the sheds, but those were nice shiny new locks, so I suspect they want what ever is inside. I hope they come and haul it off soon so you have the storage shed space to use. Hopefully whomever they pay to haul won't take your quad too!

16:55 the paul and Steve engine looks like a lincoln welding machine without the frame and voltage controller parts

The silver may be gone, but to me, you are looking at a gold mine. We are looking forward see what will be done there. Central California watching

Great place for private shooting range as well

For what you hinted that you paid, there are lots of toys to tinker with. Much less money than joining a country club to play golf!

Looking forward to your future projects! That place looks like a gold mine (or at least a silver mine)!

Love the new property. So whatever you don’t use as far as metal, you could scrap the not so useable metal and it would pay probably close to half of the property cost, just a thought. Lots of stuff there that could be used for future projects. I look forward to seeing more videos of the old mine property.

Those plastic boards look like giant cutting boards. A fellow could make a few of them out of that pile. I'm jealous.

I am completely jealous. I wish I had the time and the money to get a place like this.

I-beams, engines… what can go wrong?! Excellent thinking there. Get a caravan up there and a generator and there is no end to possible low buck projects you can give birth to there.

How ironic! Wes made a video about _his_ reorganization plans! 🤪😃🤣

I love those King Quads ! Best utility Quad ever made !

A seriously FUN video. You got my subscription, sir.

I have the same exact Hotpoint fridge in immaculate condition and it's still in use to this day, best beer fridge ever! Also, if those air cubes end up for sale I will take every one of them!

That property was a score if the scrap is left the property may pay for itself you may need a bigger truck though.

Excited for the channel!

Man I want to come play too much fun...❤❤❤❤GREAT IDEA...LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE FUN VIDEOS.

That’s awesome! Such a blessing that many can’t see, it’ll be a lot of work cleaning/organizing it all but I’m looking forward to seeing what happens!

Amazing place , your own slice of heaven to do as you please and I’m very jealous. Living here in the Uk on this dinky island your lucky to have a few metres to play in 👍

Oh ya! that's a gold mine of another kind! I used to dream of owning a junk yard out in the middle of nowhere so i could just build stuff, so I'm thinking you are living the dream...good find!!!

Love all your videos. My Dad was a farm kid and learned to fix almost anything and everything from his Dad, Uncles and Granddad...all dedicated hoarders. I'm more of a city kid but learned my DIY and Fixit skills at his knee. I'm now retired and have been looking for a reasonably priced worn out flat fender jeep to tinker on but they've become stupid expensive in my (northern outskirts of Phoenix) area. Still looking in an ever widening area. Your videos are both entertaining and instructive. Please keep it up
