I think you might be on to something. What is in the boxes? Most anything imaginable, tools, glassware. jewelry etc. Sometimes theres a nugget in there. got a WW11 Zippo black crackle light in one once.

Dave, try this for some extra money, and Im dead serious. Take 50 bucks and go to your local auction barn, buy boxlots for 1-5.00 each. Spend the 50 there then go to your local flea market and set up. It will cost probably around 10 bucks or so. Get there early, take 3-5 tables and lay all that stuff out and charge 1-5.00 per item. I set up all the time and do OK. Some days are a bust, other weekends I kill it. It was a bad one for me last weekend but the guys next to me did 600 each- granted that wasnt all profit but they did great and were out of there by noon. Put a sing on there that says the stuff is "vintage" and probably sell more. Coonman could sell some cleaned up critter skulls (can you all sell critter skulls in Iowa...?) and rake in some more coin...

This might not sit well with some but walk RR lines picking up discarded spikes, or buy them on CL for $1 each, clean them up a bit and weld up stuff. Sold 5 of these for $40 each before Mothers Day. Dave

Forever in debt to my Father who introduced me to trapping. May I be half the man he was.

Open a shop specializing in alignments with tools marks, fuel pumps and applying fluid film. Consulting with companies that need double lock outs on machines. Also, a street engineer.
