Abandoned & Forgotten Places
Documenting abandoned mines like never before!
Let's take abandoned mine exploring to the next level!
With your support you can help make this the best abandoned mine exploring channel on TH-cam!
Shot entirely in 4K! ...so, turn up those video settings!
On this channel we go deep... REALLY DEEP into abandoned mines and tunnels all throughout the western United States. We researched some of the harder to find mines and hiked or 4x4 back into them to explore and reveal their hidden secrets. Many of these remote locations are filled with cool artifacts, antiques and unique geology that will have you guessing as to why the old prospectors worked so hard to find gold, silver, and other minerals.
A&FP moves just a bit slower as compared to other mine exploring channels. Gly discusses why the miners chose these sites and he points out the geology and minerals that got them excited. Veins of quartz filled with gold and silver made many men lose sleep in the 1800’s and early 1900’s and modern prospecting still does to this very day.
DANGERS? Oh yes, there’s allot of dangers associated with old mines. Un-exploded dynamite, blasting caps, bad air, bats, spiders, and snakes all find their home in abandoned mine shafts and tunnels. Oh, and let’s not forget rotting timbers, flooded passages and collapsing rock!
Gly takes abandoned mine exploring seriously with all the proper safety equipment, training, and experience necessary to do this activity as safe as possible but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a bit of fun along the way. “Gly”, your host and his band of crazy characters “Old Bob” (Gly’s Jeep), “Quackers” (Gly’s duck) and “Bobbie” (Gly’s hula girl) are sure to brighten your day with their comments and silly antics. Heck, they may even give you a chuckle or two.
Just like Saturday morning cartoons before the internet was invented, Abandoned and Forgotten Places uploads each Saturday at 7:00AM PST. (that’s 10:00AM for you eastern folks) so don’t forget to click that subscribe button and bell icon to receive notifications of new episodes!
Please LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT! All these things help grow our channel and your financial support helps us find new locations and helps put fuel into “Old Bobs” tank. Old Bob, thanks you!

“Gly”: You guys have been great and your comments fantastic! Part of the fun of this channel is not only exploring these places but looking for the clues and trying to figure out how these mines operated.
After reading all your comments I would have to agree that this engine was most likely gas or diesel driven due to the lack of burnable fuel in the area such as wood or coal. It would also explain why I didn’t find a steam boiler in the area.
Also, I would have to agree that the bearing was made of Brass or Babbitt, a soft metal used as a bearing lining. It was usually a mixture of tin (fifty parts), antimony (five parts), and copper (one part).
Thanks again for all the great comments and for educating me even though sometimes I think I know it all. Lol. 😉
Take care out there during these stressful times and thanks again for being such great subscribers and supporters of the channel.
Gly
@@holyhellbatman6619 that's not a clean surface, the color seen on the babbitt looks like rust running down from the steel above.
I have never heard of Copper bushing I would guess it was brass. I think it was much older than 1929 my guess would be in the 1800s really cool compressor I have never seen one like that!
I agree Frank. That compressor is a treasure. Not an IR design by a long shot. Really different!
“Gly”: Hey Frank! Hope your doing well up there! With no toilet paper to be found anywhere down here in the states this pandemic is going to go down in history as “The Great Skid Mark of 2020”. Lol. I looked over every inch of that machinery trying to find a name or a date but all I could find were casting numbers. Sometimes the last two or four casting numbers will indicate a manufacturer date but not this time. Wish you could have been with me on this one, the bottom of that shaft was dry and would have been perfect for ya. Take care!
I agree that's what the railroads used also.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Try coffee filters they will work in a pinch. I am really missing the cheap American beer!
Yeah I was Gunna say its Definatly brass wich actually goes for more than copper at the scrap yards
Gly -- @ 4:14 - Look closely at the flanges on those Babbit bearings , they have the bevels on the flanges , those are the original bearings from when that engine was manufactured . -- Back in 1984 when I worked for American Borate at the Billie Mine in Death Valley, CA , i helped re-Babbit the bearings on our upper Sheave Wheel on the top deck of our steel Headframe , 160 feet above the Collar . Hardest part was jacking up the Sheave Wheel and it's cross-shaft while keeping it in perfect alignment . Then it was just a matter of moulding the Clay around the Bearing Block to retain the molten Babbit without leaking , and then pouring the molten Babbit . < Doc , Retired , Miner for over 50 years . > .
“Gly”: Thanks Doc! I’m going to have to do some more research on this but is Babbitt a form of brass? This was a great find, I looked over every inch of these machines trying to find a name or manufactured date in the casting numbers but couldn’t find anything. Any guess as to how old these machines were?
always love your comments doc your very informative and i see your commets on all the good mine explores channels tc man
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Babbitt is like lead...You heat and pour it in molds them scrape it to fit the shaft,,,
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces -- Gly - Babbit is an Alloy consisting primarily of Tin , but with varying amounts of Lead , Copper , Antimony , and Arsenic , depending upon the usage . Since that Engine didn't run on Steam , i'd have to guess that it was probably an early Diesel Engine of the Late 1920's to 1930's . -- < Doc > .
001DesertRat
“Gly”: Thanks Doc!
Your knowledge and explorations are appreciated. Interesting less explored area.
This could be mountain lion scat. Let's keep going.
More likely to be a phosphor/bronze bushing as copper is too soft unless mixed with tin into a white metal bushing.
BABBIT
Those or brass.
I was thinking along those lines myself but then I know little of that equipment. The weight of the fly and crank made me question copper even though copper dissipates heat very well it would seem a bit much to ask it to be durable in this application.
rick hill You are the only one who is correct here. They are not even bushings they are bearings and The bearings are made of Babbitt. Google it if you would like to know more.
xxBrodieTheDogxx . Technically, they are bearing half shells as they are in two sections as opposed too a bush being a continuous one piece item. I think originally they were called half shell bushes, to avoid confusion with ball & other types of bearings & one piece bushes. Manganese, certain types of sulfides and arsenic were also added in small amounts depending on the application. The arsenic gave the bronze or brass metals a hardened face that allowed it to be polished to a much smoother finish. Chris Younts refers to the copper based, "white metal" half shells for auto applications which are for use on mirror finished, fine tolerance, hard steel crank journals etc.
most of the bearings on the old steam engines were babbit or bronze the babbit bearings could be repoured when worn out Your videos are something i look forward to every weekend. Old equipment is my thing.
i think your right babbit most likely
Gly, thanks for the geology lessons as well as gold and silver ore specific information and appearance. Damn! Some really hairy ladders for that first incline. Old Bob sure handles those rocky washes. Thanks for the adventure.
19:07 I would have Ace Ventura'd my ass the hell outta there
The double L in cholla is pronounced "oy" so it's (choy-uh) not cho-lah 😋
You Sir are a pedant !
Some very cool old work there! Some of the more solid stuff you've wandered in for a while! Looks like was a helluva good trip for the day anyhow, getting there is half the fun! Hope your current badgerin' is going well!
I don’t even think Frank would have dared those mad sketchy ladders.
Wow, that's a lot of bats!!
Hi Gly, I love this channel. I wish you would comment about the cyan or turquoise deposits in the veins near the cholla needles. @10:14 ive seen similar colors in a few of your vids and those cyan colors always standout as quite beautiful and worthy of explanation from an expert mine explorer. I know they are worthless but the color pops out against browns, yellows and greys.
Btw the cactus is pronounced ChoY-uh not chol-luh. Take it from an Arizona native, my elementary school was called cholla and we were corrected early and often when we mispronounced it with the hard L's.
The flywheel bushes ( or journals) would have been brass I believe. Copper would be too soft..
Nice finds. Some clarification on your information, everything with flywheels is not a steam engine. A lot, Id say the majority of the engine remains you mine explorers find are gasoline engines, not steam. The engine powering the compressor is a Gasoline powered engine. More specifically built by Fairbanks-Morse a type "N", I'd guess by the size of the flywheels and crankcase 50 or 60 horsepower. The large tank is for cooling water for the engine aka the radiator. The bearings in these Fairbanks-Morse engines are depending on year are made from all bronze, or bronze shells with a thin babbitt bearing surface. Keep up the good work on the videos, I enjoy them, am always looking for old iron you guys find out in the wild. Thanks.
“Gly”: Thanks for the great comment! The comments section has been excellent today and I’m starting to believe that you are very correct. This engine wasn’t steam powered, it was fueled and that would explain the lack of a boiler. The most fun I have on this channel is using the clues to figure out how the miners did what they did.
@chris younts it is not a steam engine in this video.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces
th-cam.com/video/PFJBG51aU20/w-d-xo.html
A similar engine from another mine, this one used as the main hoist.
(the second half is the engine running)
I suspect that someone was trying to take the engine to either use parts at another mine, or to restore a another engine like this one, but they were only able to get the cylinder and piston and accessories, but the flywheel and base were too heavy to move.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Like geology, you have to engage the Sherlock Holmes part of your mind, what I refer to is "your Mind's Eye"!
@@ke6gwf Gly, Pass the above link and the one I got here to Frank, to help him understand the functional basics of the Hit & Miss engines he has. If they are complete, should not be that hard to getting them to chug away. Tell him to TH-cam the models he's got and you'll can see them running. th-cam.com/video/qYyOZD59fmM/w-d-xo.html
Gly, Babbit Bearings not Copper - Thanks, Stay Safe... God Bless - Love The Improvements to the Show.
Lovely to see the machinery in place. I know an underground location that still has huge generator and compressor. Only there because of the difficulty in accessing it. I do prefer the older, first person perspective videos, felt more of an adventure :) I wouldn't like to meet a cornered Mountain Lion in one of those. Luckily, the only thing that attacks in our mines are spiders lol
“Gly”: I understand, but as the channel grows I have to cater to a wider audience. Their will always be segments of First Person like near the end of this video but the days of 100% FP are gone. Well, unless I loose my camera person. Haha
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Can you interact with the camera person, and let them talk, that would be fun, like when you and Frank follow each other, the talk and banter is fun :)
Just ordered a tee-shirt, so I'll be advertising you here in the UK!
“Gly”: Thank you very much! I really appreciate it.👍👍
I'm also in the UK and will order too.
yes unique channel ,,,, at last some one who actully knows about mining ,,,,
You need a slusher attachment for the schnozzolator so you can open those incline shafts lol
Brilliant Channel...Subscribed!! Juan- Nevada City, Ca.
“Gly”: Thanks for subscribing! And welcome aboard!
Great episode Gly!!
Always a fascinating adventure. Your knowledge of the geology makes it very interesting. Them old time minors were some tough old birds. That’s for sure
Thanks again from 93561
Burro scat......................seen it b4, they probably (maybe only one) stand in the mine during the 110 degree days to cool off...........Smarter than most humans.............lol
“Gly”: No, I know what burro droppings look like because they are all over the place out here. But your correct, I’ve seen adits loaded with burro droppings near the portal.
Abandoned and Forgotten Places with your host Gly Craziness.
If you're ever honored with a Native American name, it should be "Kicking Ladder"
Bronze or brass, copper would be too soft. Thanks for another great video Gly
Sure glad to can point out what the miners were digging for. Anouther good mine explore
Gly you are mistaking about that thing you are asking us about. What I want to Know is , who is holding the camera????!!!!
“Gly”: John, it’s like this. When you watch a program on TV it’s usually never the camera person that takes the spotlight. It was requested and contracted that when I hired mine I do the same. Some people just don’t like the limelight.
That engine remenent may not have been a stream driven engine but a large stationary Oil engine like a Blackstone or another. They were the same size as steam,ran just as long on as you Americans say Gas. Being that there are Model T remains it is logical that the fuel used would be the same for the stationary engine. Very interesting explore. Hail from Australia's Victorian historic goldfields(Ballarat),unfortunately it is illegal to explore shafts around the region with fines up to $10000 if you are caught.
There are hundreds of prospecting shafts all over the state,who knows what remains buried in these capped mines.🇭🇲👍
“Gly”: It’s quite possible but it would have been quite an undertaking to haul fuel into this location. My other question is, if it was a steam engine then what were they burning under the boiler? Except for some mesquite there isn’t any wood or coal seams in the area. Yes, unfortunately one of these days here in the US they will probably enact the same types of laws. Let’s just hope it’ll be a while before that happens.
So look forward to seeing what you are up to!! That was a batty mine!! So awesome that you just let them be!! Thanks for taking us with!! Gets this old grandma out of the house!! Be safe and stay well!!😊💙💚🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸
probably poured babbit bearings and the race is brass. just a guess as well. someone probably wanted the compressor or the bull wheel and the bearing caps needed to be removed to move it. can you imagine what a monumental task it was to get the equipment there. probably brought in on trucks and pulled in with a cat and set with jin/okie poles and A frames with block and tackle or chain falls. there were no cranes back then and equip. needed to be able to be broken down in smaller pieces to move and reassembled 1. piece at a time. "motivation and determination" they really were the greatest generation and the generations before them were just flat out tough people. things we think impossible they just did because it was life to them.
“Gly”: I too am incredibly impressed by the ingenuity and determination of those miners. It wasn’t in the video but you should have seen the rocks that were blasted and hand stacked just make the road into that place. I’ll bet they spent two years just making the road.
Great explanations of the mineralization in the rocks. On the engine main bearings. The liners you are referring to are usually bronze. Here's something more. There are usually laminated shims at the joint between the missing cap and the bottom half of the bearing. These shims were there so as the bronze wore excess clearance could be removed by peeling off the required amount of shim to tighten the clearance.
“Gly”: I would have to agree with you. Now that I think back on closely examining those bearings I’m pretty sure they were made of bronze. Thanks for the great comment!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Thanks! I have worked on a lot old machinery in years gone by. I must say I never saw a compressor quite like this. A rare piece indeed!
You've got to love remote mines. Often hard to get to, but often worth it... Nice job getting after it by going down that sketchy ladder and that plugged shaft at the end.
TVR Exploring
“Gly”: Yes sir, whether above ground or below in this hobby your often rewarded if you push it a little further. That feeling you get when you round the bend or discover a new drift and find something hidden sure is fun. As a matter of fact... it’s so much fun it almost makes a guy want to strap a camera to his body so he can share it with the world! Oh wait!! Lol. Thanks Justin.
Bob, I know your level 7, but why dont you have some big boy rope?...This mine is so sketchy.....Thank you for your work...Very good Video...............JB....................
Bronze.
The ladder is upside down ,,”?wooo..!
“Gly”: No, that’s actually a dual purpose ladder. They made them that way so tools or ore could be skidded up on the rails of the ladder and used as a climbing ladder as well. It saved on lumber making it that way but yes, sometimes the rungs did kick out.
I dont think its copper, these old bearings usually were made out of a softer alloy called "Babbit" (in German its called "Lagermetall" which means just "bearing metal")
great location that old machinery is awesome
Never heard of copper bushings. Bronze is pretty common in mobile equipment.
You sure find some beautiful remote areas to explore! I appreciate the views of the area you are in and what the roads are like. Old Bob is tough!
I really liked the mines you explored with Frank, as you were more daring and went into places you wouldn't go alone. But I think I like the videos without him, because you take the time to actually explore the mine and show us what you're seeing and why the miners were there, rather than running through the mine, to see how much of it you can see.
“Gly”: Although incredibly fun... exploring mines with Frank was at times incredibly frustrating. Franks style of exploring mines is much to fast for my liking and that’s why hanging out with Mr M is much more my style.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces I think I just figured out why I'm of the same mind as you. Frank's version of mine exploration reminds me of my late mother-in-law's version of sight-seeing: move as quickly as you can so you can get on to the next place, to see more, trying to be "efficient,. But, in my opinion, you're moving so fast you miss all the small details that really make a place worth investigating in the first place. Whereas you and Mr. M are more interested in the small details, the miners' lives, how they worked, why they did it, etc. That's what makes it fun for me.
Really cool information, I'm getting a great education here.👍👍👍👍👍
Bob the bull goes everywhere. Beautiful information on this mine Gly. Vug or vog quartz? Sounded like Vug, like bug. Taking Bob the bull to another site, he gets around. Kind of leaves you choked up.
Usually those bushings are bronze but as big as they are still worth a few bucks at a recyclers
It unbelievable everything that is being torn up and destroyed because of copper and man's greed!!!
What really pisses me off is these idiots tearing up the huge Westinghouse generators and tearing up walls to get a few bucks!!!
If I ever caught someone doing that crap I pity them!!!
You’ll definitely have to return to that area with climbing gear. Thanks for sharing Gly!
GREAT effort ..!!.. was kinda thinking that u shoulda had your respirator on around those bats tho
I am enjoying the quality of your production and editing. I grew up in Nevada exploring old mines in the early 1970's so this brings back lots of memories. Just one suggestion; quit sugar and sweets and cut back on carbs- you will lose 40 lbs I promise and make it much easier to crawl around in these mines.
Yeah, probably Babbitt bearings. I actually have a hand full of Babbitt ingots that are for exactly that right there.
You sir have nerves of steel, the way that ladder looked freaked me out! I also would have wondered what I was waking up making all that noise!!!! Keep doing what you’re doing my man, because I could never!! 🤣🤣
Gly, does the Galina get tougher being exposed, or is all the same?
Man that Aqua colored rock is pretty.
What I'm noticing is that you pay lots of attention to detail. Safty first. I'm a retired sheetmetal worker who still has all of his fingers. Paying attention is important!
I'm not very sure, but I think that compressor might be a very old Sullivan. I've seen pictures of one with a similar cylinder and crosshead. People steal the data plates off of this stuff which makes it historically a lot harder to identify. The frame is strange, and more than a bit excessive. Having it go behind the wheel like that might have helped keep everything in line, but you won't see many other compressors like that for a reason. It probably contains a couple hundred pounds of unnecessary metal and would have made driving the machine harder.
Ouch, Super cool. Old hit and miss engine(not steam)_ as some also already pointed out. Ladder is turned around,maybe to prevent people from going in there. From there also the strange angle it follow.
I think what happened to this mine, is that it was raided by WWII scrapers, The scrapers of the day, would not have a crane or other device to load the hevier pieces, T
h bearing caps being missing is an indication as the scrapers probably only had minimal tools
as for the bearings, being that old, most likely they would have been made of lead, yep, I said lead. combined with a lube, ( Oil, Grease) lead works just fine and it what was used back then.
just started watching love the mines could you please describe the rock formations inside the mines more love to know what I am looking at. ty and p.s. you a little crazy but I love it lol.
Hi from Costa Rica!! I love your content so keep up the good work! Now, i'm wondering if are never worried about getting rabies from bats whenever you go into these caves..I mean i think that it was last year that a biologyst contracted the virus from an infected bat in a Costa Rican cave and died a couple months later from the disease. It's not very common but I ponder if you have thoughts when you are about to go in into these places.
It looks to me to be a form of IC single cylinder engine that powered the air compressor. There is a gear between the crank and the right bearing(as looking at it). That is typical of hit or miss or similar gasoline or kerosene engines of the time. The bearings are split and are coated with babbitt which is an alloy of tin, lead, copper, & antimony. There are different grades of babbitt depending on use. The major portion of the bearing is a form of brass or bronze; but more than likely brass(less expensive). They would be similar to the bearings in the truck journals of old railroad cars(pre-roller bearing days).
About the copper bushing on the steam engine, I am pretty sure it is lying right there as you found it because the "top" part covering the bearing, it was attached to the cylinder and piston section, so it was taken away all along.
I really enjoy your vids! Keep it up!
Probaably a copper bronze or bronze bushing most likely..
It might even be Bronze bushing as bronze is harder metal than copper. You have to consider the weight of that heavy flywheel!
Great! If ever you retire Old Bob, please send him over to me in Shetland, Scotland!
I like it when you decide it's too dangerous.
Safty is the most important thing.
The last thing any of us viewers want is for someone to harm himself trying to entertain us.
Bushings were probably made of babbitt, an alloy of lead and tin. Peter, engineer
What's really crazy is the old time miners got to these places in the middle of nowhere in model T's
There is some nice looking copper ore there at the first mine. Yes, looks like Huge Kitty poop !! The third mine are has a nice decline shaft complete with rattlesnake skin. What we have here is variety. Thanks for a really fun adventure !!!
Lol, if you keep mountain lions as pets you will never have to worry about deer in your garden.
Seeing Old Bob rock crawl was pretty cool... A Jeep in it's natural habitat 😁👍
Your mistaken. It was not copper. The crank bearings where babbit
Just sat down with a cup of coffee and saw your new video, awesome ! I was going to comment on all the dust and to be careful with that. Then you came up the ladder with a respirator, good planning .
“Gly”: It got bad down in there. And, the battery on my helmet cam died so I lost the shot of the broken ladders deeper down.
@19:34 that's the "CORONAVIRUS MINE"
Another excellent explore! I was worried about your Jeep sump when you drove over some of those rocky tracks!
“Gly”: Oh, I bump Old Bobs butt all the time and he has plenty of battle wounds down there. Someday I will lift him a little so that that’s not a problem anymore.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces I would suggest going onto ebay.com and doing a search on - jeep engine skid plate - There are a variety of new and used skid plates for engine and transmission at relatively reasonable prices. I don't know the vintage of Old Bob or I could have possibly located a 'real deal' for you.
@@bobrenner7213 I was going ask if he had skid plates, if he don't he be asking big trouble, its a long walk home let alone back to civilisation.
Bushings were probably phosphor bronze or gun metal.
I just cracked up at the tennis balls on old Bob lol !!! I can't believe you tried those ladders in the first mine crazy man .. I really enjoy the in depth time and explanations you give on everything, I'm a gear head so anything mechanical is cool to me ...
I love your show, it is very interesting.Thanks so much.
wow, 3 hours just to get to the site, how do you end up finding places like this? Great video!
I can't stop watching your videos...
Babbitt bearings were typically made with tin or a zinc alloy back then.
I think this one's a tie with Episode 12 as my favorites yet. Great stuff!
You could make a lot of money off all bat dropping's. Lol
That was a great adventure
Thanks for sharing
Yours Frank
Bless good old Bob on this one, he was gettin after it today! Go Bob! Go!
Man that Old Steel Pully wheels would make some cool fixtures / furniture stuffs!
A little heavy perhaps.
Those were probably vampire bats being so close to the vein.
Nice minds, Thanks for the trip, ones again
Wen I tuned in o saw the stick n you chopping @ that silver rock n I thought you were trying to get your rocks off😂
Found it much kooler when you were the camera guy. Now it just seems pretentious to me and hard to watch compared to the older vids.
Well ya know, that made it more personal????? I dunno, but having his "camera person" and himself both run cameras and with editing it could be kinda be like that but better... More angles give a good perspective... He's learning like all my you tube channels I have come to watch are doing as well. !!! It'll get better.....n better... THANKS GLY DUDE!!
I enjoy the perspective it gives in some places like the size of the adits and stopes.
“Gly”: Well, every good show has a good host and I don’t think a 24 - 30 minute show shot entirely in “First Person” accurately conveys the look, feel and exploratory nature of the program. This channel has been quite an evolution over the last year to say the least but I think it’s become very well honed in. In last weeks show their were segments shot in First Person so by offering many different shots and editing techniques I think I’m catering to a much wider audience and ultimately for the success of the channel that’s the goal. I think it would be a mistake for this channel to go back to a cookie cutter version of other mine exploring channels like it once was.
Awe hell no I’m a grown as man and I don’t do spiders and I don’t do bats noting more then a rat with wings
i think you will find the bushings are bronze
Great Video Gly No C V 19 in the mines just bats and needles .
used the same design in old electric motors and it was brass not copper.
Great shows really like what your doing
.....i'm gonna change my name to COOLNESS........
SO I WILL BE A COOL GUY...but not a gly!
“Gly”: There can be only one... “Coolness”😎
Thanks for sharing loved it..
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO IN THE BOOKS...............OUTSTANDING..........REALLY A TREAT TO LISTEN TO SOMEONE THAT KNOWS THE GEOLOGY OF THE ROCKS THEY ARE CRAWLING THROUGH INSTEAD OF THE USUAL DRIBBLE OF . '''' GE AIN'T THOSE PRETTY COLORS'''..............LOL
“Gly”: Thank you!
Those boards sure go down fast when they let loose!
Do rattlesnakes ever lie in wait overhead?
think the bushings are usually brass.
Hey Guy I bid your Moroccan Azurite, Specimen #MA4, 13oz, A&FP up to $27.00 somebody has an outbid on it that's as far as I wanted to go.
“Gly”: Thank you very much for placing a bid even though someone bid higher than your budget. These specimens have been a great way to help finance the channel but for right now the Items I have up for bid will be the last for a while. It’s become just too risky going to the Post Office due to the virus. When things get back to normal I’ll definitely be putting more items up on the eBay site. Thanks again for your support!
Lead Babbit was used for bearings
