    Good stuff Mike. You always seem to get real lucky on your scrap and/or other useful thing hunts, helps to keep the content fresh and interesting bro! Besides content alone, your pure entertainment values are off the hook man. The Mrs and I always get a chuckle or 3 from your videos. Thanks for providing us your wit charm and comedic relief for our enjoyment. Warmest regards from the Lone Alberta Prairies of Canuckistan. Blue skies brother take care.....Jay

    Those larger paper tags look like use log tags , used to track Mata Nance on large machinery . The small plastic numbered tags look like those used for logging lockout/ tag out safety tags to power from being turned on while someone is working on a machine or power line.

    Where I live we have a free arts and crafts supplies center which accepts anything like those tags and other items that individuals and businesses can donate. Artists and crafters can browse through the random items and take anything for free! Artsjunktion helps keep stuff out of the landfill!

    You're like a one man scavenging swat team, Mike. I've always wondered what you did with all the tools you find. I've been putting most of my tool finds together in kits stored in the tool boxes, or belts I've found. I place these kits in different locations, both for convenience, and so I'll never be caught without a back up for tools I've lost, or misplaced.
    Just a little suggestion that I hope you find helpful. ALLWITEALLWITEALLWITE!

    Quite the life there matey, fun adventures I'm sure, and by your enthusiasm contagious, good to see folks out there who know how to up-cycle stuff, ya'll doing the environment a favour, you're donating stuff as well which helps others I'm sure, good on ya!
    I'm a picker/fixer-upper/pass along of sorts as well, just like my dear ol' dad was, he repaired and sold furniture and odds and ends that he'd find in various stages of need to supplement his pension, did pretty good, kept right up until he was about 79, when he passed he left me a legacy so to speak, I'm still working on stuff he didn't finish :) , like I need more projects... Anyhow, my focus has been music oriented electronics stereos, speakers, and other audio components, put things together and make people happy for cheap, and I too am appalled at the utter waste I see caused by manufacturers making shit with a throw-away mentality. I live in a small community and it is unbelievable what gets tossed out for simple fixes, now-a-days 'built to last' is rare, and its a sad refection on some people's greed and laziness that that standard has become so special instead of the norm, so much waste with built-in obsolescence, electronics and cars being some of the worst offenders imho.
    I respect and appreciate what ya do, keep up the good work down there man and all the best of luck to you.
    Just my wee 2cents early in the morn.
    Cheers!
    Edit~ and oh, subbed!

    Remember that Tool you found that reaches up behind the sink to loosen or tighten up the main nut that holds the tap to the sink if Y’all still have it, if so it maybe something to keep on up in Dot Bags aka the Dotty 😉
    I think those Red Tag things look like the Security Tags they put on Electric or Gas or Water Meters and things so that they can tell if it has been tampered with, I think they come in Blue Red and Yellow each colour is assigned to whichever Meter Type it is I think.
    But don’t shoot me if I’m wrong about that now Y’all Hear 🤪
    Update as you said the Red Fire Safety Tags are used on Fire Extinguishers etc to show when it was Checked or Serviced 🤙🏼
