It was mostly scrap metal but we grabbed alot of stuff just for the local church they are having a free sale in a few weeks so really just saving good stuff from the dumpster. I should have got a pic of the loaded truck.

When we moved my parents out of their ranch, I sold an old washer for them. They were going to toss it into the dumpster since it was there when they moved in. I knew someone would use it for something similar to the one we found in a trash heap used for the ranch since the late 1800’s. Our washer has been a water fountain for twenty plus years.

Anyway, the guy that bought the old washer paid $80 for it and this is what he turned it into…

I thought it was a cool way to repurpose an old washer.

Today, I picked up a new, still in the box MQ Multiquip Mikasa vibraplate. Getting tired of renting one for our big block project. Have many uses on the property and might start a side hustle by renting it out on weekends.

Listed on FB marketplace for $1800.00, offered $1400.00 and sold for $1500.00. This one sells for $2690.00 so I felt it was decent deal for a never used piece of equipment.

Took it out of the box and off of the wooden pallet for ease of transport. I will be ordering a water tank for it some time in the future. Ok, I couldn’t help myself and had WhiteCap order the OEM water tank…[emoji849] I have issues…
