Well i haven't written what i have been picking up lately just what i been taking in but had a nice find tonite n just had to tell everyone about it lol first off my nite was slow tonite not finding much 4 or 5 mop handles (steel), a vac., couple computer hard drives, a fold up table (steel legs n frame), n a patio umbrella then my last stop made me like a kid in a candy store 
this is how it all happen
as i was driving i notice what looked like a brass looking lamp so i stop to pick it up when i got close to it i realize its not a lamp but a fireplace set (poker, shove ext) well that made me happy now i just got to do a scrape test on it to make sure its brass, as i was looking at the set i notice some poles (steel most likely) so that made it better then i notice one of those ele. bench grinders (the ones with a grinding wheel n a wire brush wheel) going to test it tomorrow to see if it works but u can image how happy i was. then i decided to check his big cans the one with a open lid had something don't remember, so i decided to open the other one up n the first thing i notice was some wire n one of the big ele plugs for a drier. i started to get really happy now like a kid in a candy store. so i started to move things around to check n after i moved one of those plastic toolbox i ended up filling up the tool box to the ream with alot of tools ( screw bits, drill bits, screw drivers, files, chisels, grinder heads, punchs, 2 squares, a metal ruler), a jig saw, 2 hand held grinders (1 in its case with heads), a kids lawn chair, and 3 drills (2 cordless). i spent nearly 30 or more mins there looking in that can for all of that stuff. afterwards u all can image how happy i was. all the tools alone should be worth some money. i know how much i spend on mine (not cheap) lol
well thank you for taking the time to read this n happy hunting to all. i will try to add pics of everthing tomorrow
Well i took pics n checked out everything, i can't get the pics to download from my camra yet. i did a scrape test on the fireplace set n it turn out to be steel. i also check out the cord drill, jig saw, hand held grinders, n the bench grinder n they all work great. i have one of the cordless plug in hoping it will take n hold a charge. well ill add pics when i can n thanks again for reading.
