      I found a construction sight had 3 pallet jacks in the roll-off. I grabbed all three. I took parts off one and fixed the other two. Sold one to a friend of mine now I wished I had not messed with them. I ended up concreteing the whole shop and some sidewalks so I could roll pallets around. They don't work to good on dirt.

    So the oil field thing you didn’t know what it was is called a drift or rabbit. It’s used In wells that are completed and producing to help prevent scale build up, pressure in the well drops below a certain psi and the rabbit falls, pressure builds pushing the rabbit back up. The trick is catching it in the tree!

However, I scored a Coleman Red Canyon 10x17' tent, totally unused, an 8 pack of Disney trading pins (also unopened) and a 4 pack of Pokemon Pez (ditto), almost $200 score, the tent ranking in around $155 on Amazon, $25 for the pins, $12 for the Pez.
