500-gallon water tank. Has the large open top for easy, fast filling but missing the big lid. Has large bottom bung that currently has bushings down to a garden hose bib valve. Fits in a pickup truck bed. Sound, just needs cleaning.
Thought I'd come up with a use for it, but it's been sitting here too long, on its side to keep from filling up with rain.
Located off East Charleston; I can help load it; two guys can do it.

I'm finally cleaning out my backyard, which is full of stuff I just don't use anymore. Before hauling it to the scrapyard for pennies, I'd rather give away any scrap steel anyone can use.
Now, that's not to say I'm giving away everything, and will probably keep a few pieces for personal projects, but since I've been out of the steel fabrication business for a while, with no time to do it anyway, I will be getting rid of most of it, and if you need steel, just come over and you won't be disappointed. Surface rust is to be expected, but it's all sound, and I've made many things with it. There are even some steel fabrication tables/jigs.
Also, I have a lot of wood. Nothing you'd build furniture with, mind you, but if you need firewood, pallets, or shed shelving, you'd be happy.
Also, there is a homemade ladder rack that fit a Mazda mini pickup and would probably fit similar. The joints need reinforcement and rewelded, but that's the EASY part. I threw it together for a friend that moved to Mexico, and it did everything it was designed to do and then some, being beat to death on Mexican city streets for many years. It even survived the trip back to Vegas, and it can easily be repaired and put back into service instead of being scrapped.
Lots of old electrical panels that are perfectly useful if you have the right application. Lots of ductwork fittings. I don't use them often enough to warrant storing them anymore.

I grew up learning chemistry hands-on. Even made our own fireworks. I have boxes full of chemicals, though I'm pretty sure my dad took anything explosive out of there. I also have several boxes of fireworks tubes and caps, some already fused. There's a Bunson burner, and who knows what else. I have some lab glass, but I'll go through that later and sort it. But if anyone wants all the chemicals and tubes, come get them. Contact info in previous post.

Kitchen Cabinets - Henderson
Ok, I have an entire kitchen full of cabinets that I am ripping out. Even though they were supposed to be custom cabinets and never used, they are in bad shape and do not meet industry standards. I question the structural integrity of some of the pieces as the spans are too long, the drawer slides are undersized, and there are very few square corners. The finish is rough, and I am sure that a one-armed, blind capuchin monkey could do better. Needless to say, I am not keeping them in the kitchen.
There are some redeeming qualities to these cabinets. Most of the sides are constructed with 3/4" plywood (I found 2 with 3/4" MDF) and wood is wood. There are a lot of them with a lot of drawer boxes. There's even a pop-up Kitchen-Aid mixer shelf and a lazy susan. With a little bit of reinforcement, and maybe a paint sprayer, there could be some perfectly acceptable garage storage for the lucky person willing to take this away.
I am sure that if you have gotten this far, you are intrigued and wonder why I am giving this away. First, it is inferior enough that I would not feel right about taking money, especially if something broke. Second, I don't want to look at it anymore, and neither does my wife. I am dealing with the contractors board to file charges against one of the worst "carpenters" I have ever met (I use the term carpenter rather loosely; there's wood, it was cut, and fastened to other wood to make a box-like object). They told me that I can do whatever I want to with it and I want it gone to make room for cabinets coming in.
With all of that said (and obviously you're still interested 'cuz you're still reading), I will clarify some things. All of the appliances are staying. The sink and countertops are staying as well. While I know that I might not be able to salvage the countertops, I am going to give it a try as I have a few bathroom vanities that I might be able to salvage enough to cover. I will try not to break the base cabinets, but I won't know for sure until I try removing the countertop (the counter adhesive might be stronger than the cabinets).
My plan is to get the pantry wall with oven unit and the uppers out of there first. I will take everything down and stack by my front door(if I break anything in my house, it's on me, plus I would rather not have someone possibly getting hurt in my home), you bring a truck, strong backs, and a dolly and/or cart. I would like to get rid of those this week or next weekend. The lowers and island will probably be available a couple of weeks from now.
If you're interested, let me know. I can get you measurements or more pictures, because I would rather not have to deal with more people in my house (been a freakin' pain in the azz for the last 7 months).
Thanks for looking.

From the above primers I don't need the CCI 350 99 LP Magnum primers plus I had a few extra CCI 250 LR Magnum for a total of 87 primers.
I have the following also:
Any of the above to be picked up at Bootlegger Bistro parking lot on South Las Vegas Blvd near the outlet mall.
Thanks!
I have the following also:
- Queen bed frame
- 12V Hitachi drill and flashlight set (batteries still work ok but could use a replacement
- The obligatory A2 pistol grip for an AR
- Simmon 3-9 scope for a 22 rifle that needs to be sent to Simmons for warranty replacement. They charge $10 for shipping IIRC.
- 8" round 3/8" AR500 steel plate with two bolt holes, has one chain but will need another chain and bolt.
- Small red mild steel rimfire triple spinner target. Hasn't taken a round in anger. Perfect for your kids.
- Stock Ruger 10/22 trigger internals (need to check where they are)
