    Elgin and Waltham watches are common, but valuable. The best one is the Howard. The back and front screws off. Holler if you need more info.

    If it hasn't been said yet, your FLT ring is from the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, a fraternal organization much like the Freemasons. If you have a local chapter, I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that they would LOVE to have it as part of a display. FLT stands for Friendship, Love, and Truth.

    I use those black tubs when mixing soil, on the plant table while repotting, holding soil when digging a hole to plant a tree or shrub. They are also good when you are soaking bareroot stock before planting and for giving potted up plant material a good soak in fertilized water. I love those things. I even use them to take junk out to the compost site and I don't want to mess up my van. You did well!

    The PM badges are shoulder titles for military police. 2:56 is a keywind pocket watch key on a fob. Might be gold or could be just gold filled. I'd check over the jewellery and watches closely for hallmarks and gold marks. The watches will be marked on the inside of their cases. Got some good bits there! If I wasn't an entire country away from there, I'd go through the stuff for you and clue you in on whats valuable.

    I love bins. I use bins to plant veggies. Why spray a whole garden and waste water? I use a black tote and fill it with dried leaves and grass and dirt and sand. I planted six red bell pepper plants in it. Each plant will give you a dozen peppers. Save your bell pepper seeds and every year the plants are free. I have patio pots and bins. My neighbors next door started using pots instead of digging up half their back yard. It's amazing. Every two days, go check the water and add some during the summer. Bell peppers are $1.25 here minimum throughout the year so having 50 or more free saves a lot of money. In a large blue bin like Mike has I plant three santa claus melon plants in them. WOW that is the best melon I have ever tasted.
    Watching Mikes videos brings the outside world in. It was cool to see him get that huge fan and find out it works. I've driven behind a few dumpsters locally and it's 99.99 % always trash. A few locals said stores tell them to stay out of their dumpters.

    Those watch brands take me back fifty years, when I worked in the Sears Roebuck & Co Watch and Clock Buying Department in NYC.. Bulova, Elgin, Waltham, Howard! What might look old, might be collectible. Check with an auction house. Even if you can get a few dollars for the pocket watches. Howard might be sterling silver, and be the Howard Clock Company which was the top of the line in grandfather clocks. Elgin Clock Company made the cheaper brand of grandfather and grandmother clocks.

    The Buliva watches are a good vintage make pronounce Bull i va The pocket watches are likely a gold fill or better. Old Gold filled is still valuable, not like today’s.
    The US compass could be Civil War! Best of luck on all the jewellery! Keep us posted!❤️
