Good Morning Worlds!
We are going to the tip this morning. It will clear some of the stuff we sorted yesterday from the drive. I don't think we can clear it all unless we took the trailer, but the trailer is full of steel for weighing in.
Later I might carry on packing tote crates.
Tip trip done, and another car load cleared out.
I have taken the new trailer axle, and trailer drive motor system, out of the scrap metal trailer load. That means we can get more scrap metal in there and also not accidentally weigh in the parts I want to keep.
I think, next, I will start moving the scrap steel from the back garden into the trailer so that it is ready to go.
Scrap steel prices are not very high at the moment but better than nothing, if I take enough of it in one go.
Still have to sort the non-ferrous scrap.
That thing when you are taking the rotten tyres off small, wide lawn tractor wheels....
Huge effort to unmount one side of the tyre, but it was really badly rusted tight on the other side of the rim.
In the time it took me to break the bead free, I'd forgotten I had already done the other side, and ended up with the rim free but completely inside the tyre!
I had to remount the tyre that side, and then work around it to get the rim out.
I had to cut up the inner tube to get that out too!
I wonder how many more tyres I need to unmount? Four done so far.
