Sometimes you come home with a trailer load!!

I was passing by a home and saw someone in the back where they had just removed an old tool shed. I talked with the owner for a long time and got the go ahead. My son came back with me while talked some more. I shoveled some dirt for his foundation and he offered the junk they had pulled out before they tore it down. Did some detecting and came back the next day to help clean out his other shed. I couldn’t believe all the stuff. Lots of junk but it will help stock my little antique store for the summer. Made a new friend with quite a few lots to still go over!! I hope you like the pictures. Quite a few hand forged pieces. 2 cans of (high grade) ore I can’t wait to go through, and a jar, maybe dust from a mill I don’t know Some mining related items. Lots of what’s its, which I will probably post. Lots of junk and lots of fun!! Summer full of digging in 1 day!!! Love it!!! My 12 year old son found this flower on Mother’s Day detecting. The button box had some nicer things. I hope you all are finding the good stuff!!!

I’ve got some interesting ones, I’ll send you some pictures soon! I found an old dump where there were a few interesting porcelain electric pieces, thank you!
My Grandparents adobe garage was about the same also. He was a railroader, lots of junk metal! You all would get a kick out of the pictures of my sheds

I wouldnt mind seeing your sheds, just wish I was there in beautiful Victor to see in person! And if they're whole and look like they may have some age on it, save them and I might be able to find some info on them. I find lots of insulators here in Arizona, and a lot of them have turned out to be much older than I expected they were. And the old ones are neat because this is the early pioneer age of electricity we are talking about, and people like myself do collect them.

Insulators are fun to collect but they take up space. I have about 30 glass ones in the shop, and have had some nice ones go through my hands. Here are some porcelain ones, and 2 from the shop.
