Hi all! Was on my way to the mailbox this morning - on many streets here there are a set of mailboxes for the whole street instead of indivudal house delivery - when I saw a neighbor put this out to the curb. Went and got the dolly and wheeled it home and found a little bag with doorknob parts in it too while I was wheeling it back. I need to check my mail more often!

wow nice thats crazy. the most i have found was some things on the road why walking to the library:some luger bullets empty of course=) brass i think, some headphone wires,cans,and a thing that goes in the floor for your door. oh and i found a sweeper cord in town i had to yank it off the sweeper didnt have anything to cut it with lol that was on trash day=)
That's a nice find. Right place at the right time!
Agreed! I've only been on this street two weeks now so only know three of my neighbors so far. Will go introduce myself later when they get home. Maybe there's more to come!
yeah maybe you will get lucky and get some pipes or some romex that stuff is kinda rare for me though lol.Quote:

Give the brass relief valve a good rap with a hammer, these break off really easy leaving just a wee bit of brass thread behind. If the drain tap is brass the hammer trick is quick.

Do me a favor screw the relief valve back in then give it a good tap on the end farthest from the tank, let us all know how it works out for ya.Quote:
