Too wet for doing much today so I only messed around with that wheel and tidied around the barn a bit.

Found a bunch of truck panels that were integrated into the animal shack I'm demolishing. It had all kinds of stuff nailed to it, steel, wood, rubber mats, even cardboard.

Broke down the furniture inside for sauna fuel (a hay feeder and some kind of rack soaked with animal piss), then pulled some more disintegrating plastic bags from the ground and threw them into the recycling bin.

Some days not much progress, but every little bit helps.

Treasures from the scrapmetal sorting.

Some kind of spring-loaded trailer hook?

Two welded steel contraptions, they look like drawbars for something.

A heavy, low brazier stand and an incomplete potato digger (hey, I was going to make one of those!).

And the waste paper basket from room 410.

Hauling some junk out of the garden, like this billionaire cookpot.

Looks like someone took an old steel water tank, cut the top off, welded the openings shut and added a drain at the bottom with a valve so you always have access to billionaire stock. Or maybe just collected rainwater, who knows. 🤷

Man accused of selling metal from rooftop HVAC units in Winnipeg charged

Nobody knew what this thing was for, so I cut it up for parts. Then beat the parts I couldn't cut with Mjölnir until the welds broke. 🔨

It can go be something else now. More C-beams and a nice big L for the stock steel stash.

I knew there were also a few things underneath the shed, but difficult to access or even look.

So today I grabbed a firepoker with long handle and fished out what I could reach.

There was quite a bit more than expected!

Probably should call #AntsPants to pick up the parts for his machine park 😆

The little wheel might be a roller from a DT-75 chain tractor, which I found other parts for. Not sure what the door is from, green is usually JUMZ but it looks like a T-40 door. Nor the propeller!

Pulling on a piece of hydraulic hose that was stuck I thought it would be funny if a whole cylinder came out and voila, it did. Although it's completely rotten.

You might be wondering how the steel grows so well in our garden.

The answer is obvious: Strong roots 😆

Have I already mentioned how useful and back-saving my new #PalletFork is? 😸

Yard cleanup goes so much faster now.
