All language subtitles for S.K.S03E07.These Boots Were Made for Salvaging [eng]

[Ted] My name's Ted Finch
and I've dedicated my life

to saving history...

-Red Cross.
-...one object at a time.

Very nice.
Whoa! Look at these things.

When a building
reaches the end of its life,

it's my team's job
to get in there

and save everything we can.

And when it comes to salvage,

I will go anywhere
to find hidden treasure.

But the work doesn't stop there.

Our mission is
to restore these pieces

and find the perfect buyer.

-Deal.
-So, let's go write it up.

[Ted] There are no
jobs too big, too small,

or too hard for us.

[laughs]

We are the Salvage Kings.

[upbeat music playing]

[Matt]
My name's Matt. I'm a realtor

and I'm really into cameras
and collecting them.

-Hey, how you doing?
-Good. How are you, buddy?

-Good, Ted.
-Good, Matt. Nice to meet you.

-This is my shop.
-This shop is awesome.

Thank you.
We salvage a lot of stuff.

[Matt]
I actually collect cameras.

[Ted]
I got a bunch. Come with me.

All right, let's do it.

Come check it out.
What's up boys?

Hey, how are you doing?

[Ted]
Good. You found a spot?

[Nick] Yeah. I think
if we centered it'll fit,

but we're just gonna grab
some more tools and whatnot.

All right. Cool. That's a little
chalkboard out of a school.

One room schoolhouse.
Good morning, class.

Salvaging 101 is starting
right now. Bit heavy, eh?

[Nick]
Yeah. It's heavy.

[Ted] Like this is
1930s porcelain enamel.

[Matt]
I might actually have a client

-that would love this actually.
-[Ted] Would they like four?

Four is aggressive
I'm not gonna lie to you.

But, um, one definitely,
uh, could be interesting.

Um, let's have a look
at some cameras first. And--

-There's some cameras here.
-[indistinct] here.

This is a Rolex one,
so it's gotta worth something.

Yeah. Okay.

[Ted]
Yeah. I don't know what it is.

[Matt]
This is actually a scanner.

[Ted] Scanner.

[Matt] So yeah, you would
put your, uh, film negatives

in the bottom, I think.

And your film up here
in the top magazine

and then you would
take a picture of it

basically in order
to enlarge it.

[Ted]
I like dealing with customers

that are somewhat experts
in their field

because I can learn from 'em.

What do you think it's worth?

[Matt] Maybe a couple
hundred bucks for sure.

So we got lots
of other cameras here.

Yeah, this is cool.
You got a nice Polaroid here.

[Ted] I found that in the attic
of an old farmhouse.

I love these old chests.
Polaroid land camera.

That's a very nice camera.

This is like
a treasure box for me.

[Matt] [indistinct]
should come out here.

[Ted]
Oh, look at that.

There we go.
It's got a little, uh, residue

on just from deterioration,
but that's normal from the time.

What's something like
that going for these days?

I think like a hundred bucks.

A hundred bucks is a bit much

'cause it's just gonna
be a-- a shelf piece. So, uh--

95, something like that?

95 maybe like change
the nine to, uh, uh, seven?

You know what? I'll do 80 bucks.

-You'll do 80. Okay.
-Sure. Yeah. Just the way it is.

-[Matt] Okay.
-[Ted] All right.

So, that's cool.
What about these?

Ah, this Revere,
actually, I'm looking at this.

This is really nice.

I sold a similar one last year.

125 bucks
and I think this one's nicer.

That's a bit expensive.
It's not terribly rare, but it--

-Does it work?
-I think so.

[-Matt] Does it wind?
-[Ted] It's winding.

All right,
I'll do your price if it works.

Let's see if it runs.

It's running. I can hear it.

-125 bucks.
-Okay.

So 125 and 80.
How about, uh, 200 even?

Well, you know, now
I've got my client on my head,

so I'm thinking
this blackboard as well.

-Blackboard's 250.
-250?

250. It's, like, uh,
over a hundred years old.

250 bucks. 200 bucks. 450.

Hmm. That's a lot more than
I wanted to spend today, but.

It's good stuff.

Well, you know, with the water
damage on the Polaroid,

this one works.
And the blackboard.

Let's do 400 and you help me
load it into the car.

400 bucks, the boys
will load it in for you.

Yeah? You've gotta write
a note on it.

-Sold.
-[Matt] Okay.

-Deal.
-All right, thanks.

Let's go write it up.

I'll get the boys carry
that up for you. How about this?

-[Matt] Oh!
-[Ted] It's always a good day

when you start moving inventory.
That was good.

Quick 400 bucks.

The first celebrity autograph.

Sold. Oh, you can't say that.
Look at that. Crazy.

[heavy metal music playing]

[narrator] It's a new day
for Ted and his team,

and that means a new job.

I hope you had your Wheaties.

We gotta take
a barn apart today.

[narrator] Ted's buddy, Adam,
has another job for Flashback.

A century barn
that is coming down

and he needs
help with the salvage.

There's a lot
of heavy lifting in here.

[on radio] Adam wants us to
salvage as much as possible

before he wrecks it.

He told me that
this will be a lot easier

than the tower on the canal.

[machine squeaking]

[machine drumming]

[man]
It's gonna snap!

-Holy [bleeped].
-[bleeped]!

[Ted]
Adam sent a couple pictures,

but when I saw the beam,

I thought these
are hot right now.

If those are hardwood,
it could be a big win for us.

They're gonna be
really tough to save,

but we'll figure it out.

We'll go in there,
pull as many beams as we can.

You guys all pumped up?

We're like five minutes away,
guys, so get ready.

Brandon, wake up.

I'm already awake.

[laughs]

[narrator] Supply chain issues
around the world

have driven the price
of goods through the roof

and wood is no exception.

So, the beams could mean
big bucks for Ted and his team.

[Ted] This barn is late 1800s.
I can't wait to see inside.

Hey, Adam.

-How are you doing buddy?
-Good morning.

-[Ted] Good to see you, buddy.
-[Adam] Good, how are you?

-[Ted] How's things?
-[Adam] This is gorgeous wood.

Those beams are
absolutely hardwood. 90% elm.

They're probably
300 bucks a piece average.

Could be a little
bit tough to get down,

but we'll figure it out.
We can save 30 of those.

That's almost 10 grand. I like
those cupolas up there too.

[Adam] They're beautiful.
Yeah, they're metal.

[Ted] You guys grab the saws.
We'll get working here.

[narrator]
First up for the team is to cut

and remove as much
of the barn board as possible.

They only have
a few hours to salvage

before Adam
brings the structure down.

[Nick] These barn boards are
nailed at every joist.

We're talking hundreds of nails.

What we're gonna do is cut below
and above each joist

and take out six
to seven-foot sections.

[sawing whirring]

[Ted] Woo! These weatherboards
that are wrapping the barn,

people like to use that
just as it is.

They like the gray look.

You got a brand
new cookie cutter house,

you put some of that
up on a wall. Looks great.

It's super-hot right now.
Depending on the condition,

10 to 15 bucks, a board, easy.

For every hundred we save,

that's at least
a thousand dollars.

[narrator] After completing
the wood removal

on the lower level,

Ted and the boys see
what else they can find.

[Ted]
Barn doors, sliding doors.

People are
putting 'em up everywhere.

The door comes off really easy.

You just pop off the end
slides right off the track.

The tricky part is
getting that bar off.

There's like five-inch spikes
and they're right into a beam,

so you don't wanna crack it.

It's all cast,
so you can't pry too much.

[machine buzzing]

[squeaking]

-Got it.
-Ah, see? I knew you'd get it.

They're making reproductions
left and right.

This is the real deal.
Probably 600 bucks for that.

[narrator] With the main floor
salvage complete,

it's time for Ted to
check out the next level.

[Ted] Nice. This upstairs
has a bunch of stuff

they've stashed away
from the homestead.

Put it here for safekeeping.

This buggy seat,
it's a child's one

off the back
of a horse drawn buggy.

What you do is
you make base for it.

It makes a wicked
cool little hall table.

Farmers don't throw stuff out.

They probably thought,
"I may use this window,

I may use this mirror."
These are nice.

These are probably
from the house.

This type of window
is very hard to fix.

It's too bad it's broken.

In this condition,
it's not worth very much.

It's still very cool. Just
off a mantle. It's a nice piece.

This is for grabbing hay bales.

Hooks onto the track up here
onto that trolley,

pinches the hay bales,
drop 'em down there.

This is all good stuff. I'd sell
those for 50 bucks a piece.

That sign, as rough as it is,

I'll get a hundred bucks
for that sign.

This about $150 piece.
This plus the track,

that's another 150 bucks.

This is about 500 bucks
right here though. Not bad.

-[Nick] Barn board-wise.
-[Ted] Yeah.

I've got
the first level right here.

Yeah.

Nicely stacked up,
but second level,

we need to get some
height from the outside.

It's just a little too unsafe

to do it from
the inside I think.

Yeah. Just hop up in the
Genie and just trim it,

do the same thing
out there, right?

Yeah, there's no problem.
Get 'er done.

Yeah. All right.

[narrator] As Nick gets ready
to go to the next level

on the barn, a local buyer
drops in to check out

some of the salvaged wood
with Ted.

[Ted]
We got that pile there too.

-Yeah.
-One, two, three.

[Ted] You're just gonna
wrap your shop in it or?

Yeah. I'm gonna
put it on my own shop.

Kinda make it look rustic, so.

[Ted]
You know how much it'll be worth

when I take it
back to the city, right?

Yeah. Oh yeah.

But we're here on the site.
You're local.

I like the idea of staying here.

There's about
40 boards per skid.

[Ben]
Oh, I don't know.

[Ted] Three skids. How about
1200 bucks for three skids?

Does that work?

Oh, I'll do a thousand.

A thousand bucks.
You pick it up?

-Yep. Pick it up.
-[Ted] I'm in.

-Thanks, buddy.
-Thanks, Ben.

Appreciate it.

[Ted] In a perfect world,
this would happen every time.

I mean, the station's not set up

to deal with the volume of wood.
It's a win-win.

So you wanna go the top
of the bottom boards.

[Brandon] We're gonna run,
I think just above this beam

and then we'll go up
to the top and run the top--

[Adam] Mark works with me.
He's a retired fireman.

He's the perfect guy
to put up there with Nick,

help guide him along, get some
experience with some heights.

[Nick]
Can I just drop these?

[Mark]
Yeah, that's perfectly okay.

[Nick]
Whoa! Holy [bleeped].

[Mark] Those are the moves
that are gonna piss you off

and I can't
really do much about it.

[Ted] Those high boards
are in really good shape.

Go get 'em, Nick.

[Nick] You gotta
get your ass up here.

I-- I'd love
to not go any higher.

I'm okay at this height.

Once we get a little higher,
then I'll be [bleeped] myself.

Me and heights,
we don't get along very well.

[Brandon]
Beam him up. Bye.

[laughing]

[machine buzzing]

[Nick] As we're
working up the building,

first level, second level,

I'm realizing
that this ain't for me.

That is a long way down.

[Ted]
How you doing, Nick?

[Nick]
Not great.

[Mark]
Okay, so I'm gonna move here.

So, just kind of hang on it.

[Nick] Holy [bleeped].
This thing's really rocking.

[Brandon] Dude. Look, he-- he
ain't letting go of that rail.

[Nick]
[bleeped]! That did not
feel good.

[Brandon] Big Mr. Muscles,
this is so tough after all.

He's actually afraid
of heights. Hilarious.

[Ted]
Don't look down, Nick.

[Nick] Ted, I'm done.
Get me off this thing.

-[Brandon] How you doing Nick?
-[Ted] Not great.

[Brandon]
Nick, he's afraid of heights

and a lot of the stuff
we do involves heights.

[Mark] Okay. So I'm gonna move
here, so just kinda hang on.

[Nick] Holy [bleeped].
This thing's really rocking.

[Ted]
Don't look down, Nick.

He looked a little
nervous in that basket.

He was just gripping onto it.

[Brandon] These-- Those
look pretty good coming out.

[Ted] Yeah.
Nick is really good with tools.

He's confident, but up there
he didn't look like it at all.

[Nick] Ted, I'm done.
Get me off this thing.

[Ted] Look, I'm not here
to torture the guy.

Brandon, it's time
for you to get up there.

[Genie whirring]

All right. Should be good to go.

[Brandon] I may not be well
versed in the machinery

and all the tools and stuff,

but when it comes to jumping
in a bucket, sure. I'll go up.

-[Mark] Yep, you're good.
-[Brandon] She's hanging.

[narrator] Brandon and Mark's
first task is to pry off

the barn's original loft ladder.

A piece Ted
really wants to save,

but it's putting up a fight.

[ladder thuds]

[Mark] What the [bleeped]
holding on?

-[Brandon] Ah!
-[Mark] Okay, hang on.

[Brandon]
It's one nail, you--

[Mark]
It's coming. It's coming.

[Brandon]
Yep. Yep. Is it moving?

[Mark]
There. Yeah, that's it.

-[Mark] Hold on.
-[Brandon] Yep.

Okay. One, two, three.
Catch on.

There we go.
Nice job, man. Good job.

[laughs]

There is nails in it, fellas.
Watch your hands.

[Ted] Holy crap.
That's a heavy ass ladder.

So far, so good.

But what I'm looking forward to

is I love those
cupolas up there.

Those are beautiful.

You don't find
metal cupolas that often,

but they are super cool
and I like them.

You gotta be super careful
working at these heights

and those pieces are heavy.

-[Brandon] All right.
-[Mark] All right. Back up.

[Ted]
I'm glad Brandon's up there

'cause he's our Spiderman.

It's gonna be tricky,
but if he can save both of them,

that's at least 800 bucks.

Then, I'll get
that bar from you.

[Brandon]
There's a bunch of nails

holding this thing together.

We have to be careful
when we pop these off.

Otherwise, this thing's
coming crashing to the ground.

-[Mark] Question for you.
-[Brandon] Yeah?

[Mark] Where the hell's that
gonna go when we get it off?

[man] Looks like I'm
staying up here. [laughs]

[Brandon]
Okay, we're going over.

-[Mark] Okay.
-[Brandon] You good?

-[Mark] Yep.
-[Brandon] How is it?

[Mark] It's a little heavy,
but we're okay.

[Mark] I'll get us down
as soon as we can.

[Mark]
Yeah. Do your thing.

-[Brandon] One down baby!
-[Ted] Yeah. Good job man.

[narrator] Brandon and Mark
have run out of time

to save
the second cupola by hand.

Adam needs the barn down today
to stay on schedule.

So, Ted is hoping he can
drop the barn gently

without damaging
the other cupola.

[Ted]
It's wrecking time,

so saving that second cupola
is gonna come down

to Adam's skill level
and a bit of luck.

[Adam] We've taken down
a lot of barns.

They got a mind of their own.
They're just like a toddler.

You gotta guide them
in the right direction

or they'll do
whatever they want.

[narrator] Adam's plan is
to use the bucket on the end

of his machine's arm
to apply enough pressure

to the structure
to force it to collapse.

But there's so much tension
in the hardwood structure

that it could spring back
and smash into Adam

if he doesn't apply pressure
to the right spot.

[Ted] I need those beams
to make a profit here.

If they snap when
the building comes down,

it's gonna turn
10 grand into kindling.

[thrilling music playing]

Tough, old barn.

[Adam] As we're about
to push the barn over,

it's wobbling
around a little bit.

The last thing you wanna do
is let it come towards you.

-[Ted] It's coming.
-[man] It's coming.

[loud cracking]

[thud]

Yeah!

[cheering]

Feeling her.

[Ted] Adam did great.
I have no idea the condition

of the beams
or the second cupola,

but at least
he got it down safely.

[narrator]
Before Ted and the guys can get

to the barn's valuable beams,

they need to get the roof
out of the way.

It's a lot of work.

Fortunately,
they can salvage parts of it,

improving their bottom line
on this job.

[Ted]
The tin roof here is great.

A lot of times, the tin comes
in big giant sheets.

These are little
two by two squares,

kind of like a tin ceiling,
which they could be used for.

People like this stuff.
Repurpose it, it's beautiful.

So, we pulled
probably 200 of those.

I think we'll get five bucks
a sheet, so do the math.

[drilling whirring]

The barn trolley, there's
usually one in every barn.

The track runs across
the length of the barn.

There's no way we were getting
that when the roof was up.

A lot of times you
gotta knock it down.

I was happy it
was still in one piece,

but they're pretty strong
and they're very cool.

They're all cast iron
pieces of art.

The big money's
in the beams here,

so we gotta strip
that tin off quick.

Lift the roof off,
which is a bit beat up anyway.

And tons of nails,

so we can get at the nice
beam playing underneath.

Ready anytime, brother.

-Are you?
-Yeah.

Right on.

[Ted] Plop that roof off
and pull us some big beams.

[Adam] Yep, sounds good.
You won't be able to keep up.

-Trust me.
-Yes, we will. You watch.

[laughs] We'll see.

[narrator] As soon as
Adam flips over the last pieces

of the roof, he starts
stacking up the massive beams

for the team to cut up
and organize.

Ted's hoping for at least
30 beams worth almost $10,000.

[machine buzzing]

[Ted] A local builder
reached out to me this morning

about the beams. I'd love
to sell 'em on the site.

[car honking]

Way less handling for us.
How're you doing, Kenny?

-Good. How are you?
-Good.

I'm Kenny. I'm a local,
uh, carpenter in the area.

I keep driving by
this old barn every day

and saw it was coming down,

so I thought I'd stop
and talk to Ted about it.

-What do you think?
-It's a barn.

-It's a barn, al; right.
-And it's down.

[Ted]
Some assembly required barn.

[Kenny]
I see that. Yes.

You're interested in what,
the whole structure

or just a few beams?

No, the whole structure.

-[Ted] Really? Yeah?
-[Kenny] Yes.

All the beams
and all the boards.

You want this tin, right?

-No, I don't.
-[Ted] Okay, I'll take the tin.

[Kenny]
All right.

But I'd tell you the whole
structure. How about 10 grand?

I don't know if I could do 10.

How much? But how much,
what-- what are you thinking?

If you had to buy all
of this today right now,

how much would that cost you?

A bit more probably.

A lot more. What do you think?
Can you do 85?

Adam will load you.

-All right, sounds good.
-Yeah?

-Sure.
-Deal. Excellent.

[Kenny] I think
we settled on a fair price.

It's gonna be challenging
to rebuild.

It's a lot
of pieces to have to try

and put back together,
a big puzzle,

but, it should be
a good project I think.

[Ted] Lightens my load on
the way home, that's for sure.

[Kenny] No doubt.

[Ted] Thankfully,
I was able to sell

most of the wood on-site.

Saves us from hauling it back

and I won't have to
listen to John complaining

about storage issues.

And to cap it all off, Adam
and I saved the threshing floor,

which we're gonna
donate to a local museum.

We also managed to
walk away with both cupolas.

It's been a great day
for Flashback.

While the boys
head back to the station,

Adam and I are gonna
drop off the flooring

at a local museum.
I really like this.

These would've been a tough sell

and we're preserving
the local history, which I love.

Look at this place.
It's cool, eh?

[Adam]
It's awesome.

[chuckles] Man!

How are you doing? Stephanie?

[Stephanie]
Hi! Hi, nice to meet you.

You know Adam.

[Stephanie]
Hi. Nice to see you again, Adam.

Welcome to our 1948 garage.

[thrilling music]

[Ted]
This is a beautiful place.

[Stephanie]
This is our 1948 Monarch.

It's been stored for the winter.

This is sweet.
Like you drive this thing?

Yes. I come over here. I can
show you my personal favourite.

What is this thing?

[Stephanie]
This is our 1926 Dodge.

[Adam]
It's a beauty.

[Stephanie]
Yeah. This is my favourite car.

It even has
little holders inside

where you can have
flowers to scent ride naturally.

Speaking of scent,

we got some beautiful
scented lumber out there.

We are very,
very excited to have that here.

So, what are you
gonna do with that wood?

We're going to install this wood

in our Pioneer woodworking shop.

Drop it in as is, floor worn,
and it will be absolutely ideal.

We couldn't ask for better.

Perfect. Yeah. You
wanna take a look at it?

Oh, absolutely I would.

The fact that we're
salvaging something local,

so the wood is
from local forests.

It was used in a local barn

and now we're able
to use it here at museum

where we actually preserve

and celebrate local stories
is really exciting.

There you go.

-Beautiful.
-Wow.

[Ted]
Great way to end this job.

It is so cool that they're
gonna repurpose this flooring

to teach kids about
local history. I just love it.

[narrator] Ted hits
the road for the station

where he has an appointment
with a new client

looking for some glassware.

[Allison] I'm Allison and I run
an online vintage business.

Today, I'm here to visit Ted

because I know he finds
some really cool pieces,

so I'm here to check them out.

-That's nice, eh?
-Super cute.

-You like that?
-I do like this.

[Ted]
Allison runs a business

reselling little
decorative items.

I know what she likes. I know
what a lot of my buyers like.

Talk to me about it.

Well, it's a swan.
That's what it's.

You're a smart, smart man.
What-- what-- what year?

You think in '50s?

Yeah. I think
that's out of the '50s.

A lot of this
stuff is like '50s, '60s.

Yeah. Glassware is very hot
right now.

People want to
reuse things, right?

Not go to necessarily
some of the big box stores

and just buy new things.
Things with bit history.

Yeah, they're very cool.

But a lot of people got
hammered drinking out of that.

I bet they did.
Where did you find these?

These were in an old farmhouse.

This place is loaded in smalls,
guys. There is a lot here.

Holy crap, man.
How many totes we got?

-[man] 15.
-15 totes.

-All right.
-Oh, look at all this stuff.

-We may need more.
-Some depression glass maybe.

Oh yeah, yeah.
See I like the depression glass.

Yeah.

[narrator] Depression glass
is glassware that was made

from the start
of the Great Depression in 1929

through the 1940s.

It featured pieces for the home

that were most often clear
or colored and translucent.

They were mass-produced
and distributed free

or at low cost in North America

where millions
struggled to make ends meet.

Today, it is highly
collectible and the rarest

and most sought-after patterns
can fetch hundreds of dollars.

Young people in
the city really want

these pre-loved vintage glasses.

Everyone's about
individualizing their bar cart.

So, I'm definitely
into these. Definitely.

So how much for all of this,

this whole pile
of beautiful glass?

-And I'll throw in this bell.
-[bell chimes]

-You'd throw in the bell?
-Oh, for sure.

-Well.
-There, the bells.

-Okay.
-Bumping it right up a notch.

50.

50? Let's get serious here.
How about 150?

So, how much for all of this,

this whole pile
of beautiful glass?

50.

50? Let's get serious here.
How about 150?

[rousing music]

Okay. If you can
throw in this guy for 25.

[Ted]
So, that's 175.

I'm gonna say sold.
Because I will find you more

and I know I'll do
a lot of business with you.

For sure.

[Ted] That was good.
No big ticket items.

But I love meeting new clients
and making a sale.

We have a great new job
first thing in the morning,

and I can't wait.

[exciting music]

[Ted] We are hitting
the road to Grimsby.

Check out
a 150-year-old boot factory.

I have never done
a boot factory before.

I wear boots
and I appreciate them.

No idea what we're gonna find.

Really looking
forward to checking out

the inside works of this place.

The new owners are
redeveloping the property.

I've bought the salvage rights
to clean the place out

before they take it down.

-[man] Hello?
-Hello. Look at this place.

[man] Wow.

-[bell chimes]
-Look at that. Ring for service.

-[laughs]
-[bell rings]

Hello. We're here to salvage.

You first, Ted.

I'm gonna crawl under?
All right, let's start it.

Beware of the dog. Hope he's
gone. This roll top is cool.

This roll top desk is super
cool. 400 bucks. Look at--

-Did they make these too?
-[man] You'd look good in that.

Let's see. Let's see.
I'm taking it.

[Nick] It looks
like your size too.

I'm taking this thing.

Okay, you guys know
what to do here, right?

-[man] Yeah.
-[Ted] Start on the main floor.

I'm gonna head upstairs.

Look for anything of value.

You guys are
getting better at that.

This is a pretty wild place
here. It's like a wood shop.

It's wicked.
There're some signs here,

but they're not too cool.

I'm not taking any of these.

Taking these.

Oh, there it is. A wood shop.
Getting some stuff here now.

I like this place.

Look at this thing.
It's some sort of clamp.

God, look at these foot things.

That's cool. I'm taking these.

I don't know what this is.

Oh, I think it's, oh,
it's like a leather cutter.

I don't know. What do
I do with those? What do I do?

I'm taking one, maybe two.
They're very cool looking.

Holy blast from the past.
This place is--

[chuckles]

We're taking that too.
First generation printer.

I like this.
It's good for a set buyer.

There's no computers in here.

There's, oh,
there's a current printer.

Look at this office, man.

It's like 1950s.
This is how an office would run.

Got an old electric
typewriter. It's very cool.

I gotta go through
this with a fine toothcomb.

But the boys
are gonna move this.

It's a really nice,
little side table. Good size.

Made in Canada.
That is too cool.

Nothing made here anymore.
Everything's made offshore.

Well, that's really
high-tech. A shredder.

Stepping into the year 2000.

Oh, look at that.

Wow! Oh, look at 'em all.
Holy crap. Look at this place.

This factory is frozen in time.

These leather
stitching machines are awesome.

They're easy to maintain
and totally reliable.

These are a great find.

I don't come across these
very often.

[Brandon]
One, two, three.

[Ted]
This whole place is flashback

out of the '40s, '50s.

There's a lot of cobblers
these days wanna go old school.

These are the machines
they're looking for.

Nothing made now
compares to this machinery.

These machines made some
badass boots in their time.

Thousands if not hundreds
of thousands of pairs of boots.

Imagine the boots are made

and then the people that
wore them and their stories.

These machines.
Matthew, the cobbler.

I know exactly
who will buy these.

Matthew's an old school cobbler

who specializes in
custom handcrafted boots.

I'm gonna call him

because I think he
might love these machines.

They're right up his alley.

Hey, Matthew.
it's Ted from Flashback.

These machines are awesome,
but they are not for everyone.

It's a risk
to take these without a buyer,

but I'm gonna do it.

You're not gonna
believe this place I'm in.

No, I am excited.
Time is money in this game.

I really gotta make
a sale to make it work.

I hope Matthew comes through.

Hey, Matthew.
it's Ted from Flashback.

Yeah, no, I am excited.
We're in an old boot factory.

The stuff, like, there's
equipment here

from the '20s, '30s.

You sure you don't
wanna make a deal right now?

Hey. Well, come and see 'em
in person.

Okay. Come by Flashback,
check 'em out.

All right. I'm gonna
send you some pictures.

I'll send you some
pictures. All right?

Okay. Thanks bud. See you soon.

This is where jobs were.
Small cottage industries.

This is awesome.
Hey, this whole setup?

[man]
This place is great.

This is--
this is the way it was.

Like, this guy 1855 said,

"I'm gonna start
making shoes and boots."

[Nick] Yeah.

Like, before the global economy,

this is the way it was
in Canada. They made it here.

[man] Yeah.

Now, the challenge
is getting these out of here

in one piece safely.

I need them in good shape
to make good money.

I'll take this heavy and you
take the light side. You ready?

[man] You didn't
stop to see the elevator

coming up here, did you?

[Ted] I love those machines.
I hope Matthew does as well.

It's always a risk
moving heavy pieces like these.

They can break
or we could be missing a part.

I can't worry
about that right now.

We gotta hunt for more salvage.

Just look at this office.

This is like stuck in time,
this whole place.

-This office is crazy.
-Look at it.

[Brandon] It's cool because
it looked like all the workers

literally had just got up
and left like yesterday.

This is a beauty
little side table. We want that.

This desk is '40s.

What about these light fixtures?

[Ted] They're very cool.
Probably 1950s.

There are so retro.
But start with the desks,

these lights, those two chairs.

I'm gonna keep scouting.
All right?

[Brandon] Sweet.

I'm gonna leave
Nick and Brandon.

Hopefully, they can
pull something out of here.

Looks like a disaster to me.

I got lots of
fun stuff in my drawer.

[Nick]
Like, look at this.

Could you see me
working at this, Brandon?

I feel like this
could be our office.

-[Nick] Yeah.
-Feet up.

All right,
let's get to work.

[Nick]
Yeah, you get to work.

[laughs] I'm on break.

In this office, we're
looking for old ads, old prints,

magazines, cash even, if it's
in between some of the papers.

And every time
I look over at Nick,

he's reading every single word
on every single paper.

And that's not gonna work.

Don't need. Don't need.

[Nick]
I look over at Brandon

and it's a total disaster
over there.

He's just letting papers fly.
I swear to God.

-[Brandon] What?
-I'm gonna come over there

and beat you
with my accounting book.

I never thought

I'd like looking
through people's stuff so much.

I know!

I'm almost done over here.

You dumped all your stuff
on my desk.

[Brandon] I'm just
trying to get my side done.

-You're taking so long.
-Oh, God.

[Ted] So, you guys
wanna start loading?

What do you think
we got here value-wise?

Easy a few thousand bucks.
'Cause the sewing machines

and stuff are a thousand each.

-Cool.
-[Ted] All day long.

I love that piece there.
I should put it in my office.

[Nick] You gonna
put that in your office?

[Ted]
I don't know why.

[narrator] After the boys
finish in the office,

it's time to head back
to the station.

Ted is hoping his gamble
on the machines

for his cobbler friend pays off.

But in the meantime,
a buyer has arrived

at the station
interested in some of the wood

from the job at the old barn.

[Ted]
Good to see you, buddy.

[Bernard]
Good to see you.

Got some barn board
over here for you.

Excellent. My name's Bernard.

Uh, I own
a company called BeReclaimed.

We work out of, uh,
Toronto and Collingwood,

making custom furniture for
private and corporate clients.

[Ted]
There we go. Pretty nice, eh?

[Bernard]
It looks pretty good.

And do you know where the barn
was? Where it came from?

-Chatsworth.
-Okay.

-Near Owen Sound.
-Nice.

Uh, my clients come to me
typically looking

for furniture made
out of reclaimed wood

for the environmental aspect
of it. The historical aspect.

[Ted] It's not--
it's not too hammered.

Ted, I got the rod.

No, it's got,
uh, it's not too weathered.

Bernard, this is AJ.

-Nice to meet you.
-Hey, AJ. Pleasure.

[AJ]
What are you working on?

[Bernard] A bit of everything.
Siding, framing.

-That's quality stuff.
-Yeah. High quality stuff.

Okay.

They're all different widths.

So, the board foot price is
kinda hard to calculate on this.

Yep.

So, I'm thinking
like 15 bucks a piece.

[Bernard]
It's got great condition.

It-- it is.
There's some meat on it.

-It's not that punked out.
-[Bernard] It's not brittle.

So, when it comes to barn board,

there can be any number
of different things

one's looking for.

Often integrity is important.

How old that barn board is.

It can be too old and then
it's too-- too decrepit.

Or it can be too young and it
doesn't have enough character.

I think there's probably
250 square feet here. Easy.

75 pieces, six foot lengths.

That's the real deal.
15 bucks a piece.

It's probably about
three bucks a board foot.

Um, 12 bucks a piece?

The truth is when you're
buying reclaimed materials,

there's a game to it
and you just try and play it

and you try and get
the best price you can.

Let's go 12 bucks a piece,
75 pieces. That's, uh--

700 bucks? Something like that?

-Close.
-Yeah. Okay.

-700?
-700.

-Sold.
-Okay.

Excellent.

75 boards at
12 bucks a piece is 900 bucks.

But when he said 700,
I shook on it. It's a good deal.

Let's go inside, write it up.

I'll show you the train station.

[Bernard] I have to say, this
barn board looks pretty great.

And it's in good condition.
It-- it has character.

I think it's gonna work
really well for my needs.

[Ted] Another good sale
from the barn job with Adam.

And speaking of Adam, I think
he's found the perfect job

for Nick's first demolition.

[loud thud]

Nick's a heavy equipment
operator,

but he's never
demoed a building.

Adam and I agree that
it's time for him to try.

Nick has been dying
to wreck a building

and I'm pumped that
he finally got his chance.

This is gonna be awesome.

-You ready, Nick?
-Oh, I'm ready.

This is an important part
of our business.

We have to be able
to wreck buildings too.

-[Nick] Yep.
-I'm sure you can do it.

I've been asking Ted for months
to let me wreck a building.

I love salvaging with Ted,
but I love machines too.

I've seen Adam demo
some incredible buildings,

but I really want
the chance to learn

and to show Ted
that I can do this.

Adam, what's up bud?

Hey, good morning.

What's the story here?

Well, I'll help
Nick get started.

You think you're ready for this?

I mean, I think I'm ready.
I can run the equipment,

but I've never demoed.

It's a good building
to learn on.

[Nick] Pretty tight
on the edges here.

[Adam]
Ah, you got lots of room.

Slow and steady wins the race.

I know it's exciting
with a big wall crashing over,

but it's not necessarily
the best thing.

We'll keep an eye on you
and make sure everything's good.

-Perfect.
-Let's get Nick in the seat

-and get wrecking.
-Sounds good to me.

[thrilling music]

[Nick] It's my first time
wrecking a building.

So, of course I'm nervous.

This may be
a small job for Adam,

but it's a big one for me.

There's a couple
of big challenges here.

One, making sure the building
falls in the right direction

and doesn't damage
the houses beside it.

Two, the important one is
that it doesn't fall back on me.

It may look simple,
but it's not.

Part of me is freaking out
a little bit inside.

All right. First up,
we'll get this chimney down.

Good job, Nick.

[narrator]
Nick has done well so far

pushing the building
in on itself.

But, if he doesn't
build up enough of a ramp

to get to the front
of the structure,

the machine could end up
falling into the basement.

Part of wrecking a building
with a basement

is filling
the basement with debris,

so you can walk forward.

Rookie mistake. You move a
40-ton machine into a big hole,

it can go right over.

[Nick] Whoa! [bleeped]!

[Ted] This is the school
of hard knocks.

Nick is gonna find out very fast

if he's got enough debris
in that basement

to hold that machine.

[narrator]
Nick keeps the machine upright

and gets ready to move on

to the last part
of the demolition.

[Adam] So far, he's good.

He's doing what
we're advising him to do

and it's looking great so far.

[Brandon] For Nick's first
demolition, he's crushing it.

I can't believe
how amazing he's doing it.

I don't care if
he's scared of heights,

I know I could never do that.

[Nick] The last tricky part
is that peaked roof

in the front of the building.
I can't let it slip.

I gotta get it down
in one piece.

[thrilling music continues]

[loud thud]

[Ted] Awesome job by Nick.
I know it's not the biggest job,

but he proved that he can do it.
Big win for Flashback.

I'm pumped.
This job was awesome.

This is not gonna be
my last demo job.

[narrator] After Nick's
successful demolition,

the team heads back
to the station

where a friend of Ted's
has arrived

to look at what they found
in an old schoolhouse.

[Ted]
I found this beautiful quilt

in the time capsule trunks
at the old schoolhouse.

I'm not an expert
but my friend, Kara, is.

I've asked her to appraise it,
so I know what to sell it for.

-Look at this place.
-Oh, it looks fabulous.

You like train stations too.

I do. I do like train stations.

We don't have a train station.
I wish we did.

No, but, well--
I'd sell you, but it's--

[both laugh]

I'll have nowhere to go.

Here's the quilt.

And you found this
in Owen Sound, right?

-Yeah. In an old schoolhouse.
-Right.

[Kara] Let's take a look.

Oh, yes.

So, you know
I'm a collector, of course.

-I know.
-And this is a log cabin quilt.

It's called Straight Furrow.

And if you can see,
when you look at

the dark lines
coming through in the light,

-that's the furrow.
-Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

[Kara]
You've got a lot of silks.

[Ted]
Where's the silk here?

Well, there's silks,
all these pieces...

-[Ted] Okay. Yeah.
-...Are silks.

And back in the 1900s,

the silks weren't of really
great quality coming in

that they were purchasing
and using.

And so, you end up
with these kinds of details

that are starting
to deteriorate.

-Yeah.
-They've had to use a backing

and then
stitched the silk over top.

-[Ted] Oh, okay. Okay.
-[Kara] And there's your hand--

-your hand stitching.
-[Ted] Yeah.

Yeah.
That looks all hands, right?

[Kara] Yeah, for sure. So,
you're starting to add it up.

The silks, the flounce, the
machine stitching on the back,

hand stitching here,
definitely 1900.

-Early 1900s or...
-[Kara] Early 1900s.

There's a lot of historical
value in the quilt.

It, you know,
it comes from an era,

it comes from a schoolhouse.

Like, how much do
you think it's worth?

-It's all about conditioning.
-Yeah. Yeah.

-[Kara] And provenance.
-[Ted] Yeah.

Where it comes from,
who the quilter was, the family.

You know, you're-- you're
looking at a 4, 5, $600 quilt.

-Really?
-And hanging on the wall,

it'll-- it'll be a great piece.

I'm glad
you're gonna preserve it.

You wanna look
at some other stuff?

-[Kara] Yeah, let's do that.
-You don't wanna buy that?

No. I-- I want--
I want the cupboard.

-[Ted] I know you do.
-[Kara laughs]

[narrator]
After that lesson from Kara,

it's time for Ted
to find out if his gamble

on the boot machines
is going to pay off.

His cobbler friend,
Matthew, has arrived.

-[Matthew] Hey, Ted.
-[Ted] Hey, Matthew.

-How you doing, buddy?
-Pretty good. -How are you?

Excellent.
Good to see you again.

-Good to see you as well.
-How's things?

Things are great. I'm Matthew.

I'm a bootmaker
from Cobalt, Ontario.

My wife, Dana and I own Poor
Boy Soles Bespoke Shoe company.

And we pride ourselves
on the old methods of--

of making boots and shoes.

-You made those, didn't you?
-I absolutely did.

-[Ted] They're very cool.
-[Matthew] Yeah.

-That's what we make up north.
-[Ted] Yeah?

Could you make 'em
with a machine like this?

These are the machines
I was telling you about.

[Matthew]
Yeah. So we actually use

Puritan stitchers in the shop.

We have a triple needle
that we use

and we're in the market
for a single needle,

so your timing
couldn't be better.

Ted gave us a call
and said he had a few machines

that we might be interested in.
That one, in particular,

we've been searching for--
for about five years now.

And we were just about
to pull the trigger on one

and Ted actually called
and had one here for us.

As soon as I saw it,
I said, "I know--

I know someone
that's gonna like these."

[Matthew]
Yeah. The difference is it can

go through heavy leather
and it's boot maker,

leatherworker specific, right?
Very tough machine.

-And it works.
-Let's take a look.

There we go.

[Ted] Yeah, see, it's working.
Seems pretty cool, eh?

Yeah. And something that'll
get used every day in our shop.

And then this one.

-Yeah.
-What's a-- like a--

So this is an eyelet machine,

you know, the reinforced
eyelets on boots,

so your thread doesn't pull
through the leather

and was used by
the big names, like, uh,

the Kodiak Boot Factory
for instance,

would have
a number of these running.

-Really?
-And it's something that's

very useful in our shop as well.
The eyelet machine.

It's something that we haven't
actually come across

in the years that we've
been making boots and shoes.

It's something that we've
wanted. It's on the wish list.

-It's a great machine for us.
-What about this type of stuff?

Yeah, so those are
a couple flatbed sewing machines

useful for lightweight leather.

These machines
are good for sewing liners.

-Okay. Cool.
-Quite useful.

So that, that, and then this
one looks like a guillotine.

Yeah. So it's--
it's an old leather break.

It creates a hard bend in--
in a material or a leather.

It's used to put crimps
in the leather itself.

Cool. So--
so what are we thinking?

You probably have a value here
of about $5,000 to $5,500.

-Seriously?
-To the right buyer, of course.

-You're the right buyer.
-I am. But I'm--

I'm a small businessman too,
so you know.

I could, uh...

I could give you
about, uh, 3,000.

[Ted] Come on, Matthew.

So what are we thinking?

I could give you about,
uh, 3,000.

How about around four grand?

Uh, how about 38?

-Deal. Deal.
-That sounds great.

Because it's
going to the right place.

-You're gonna keep using this.
-Absolutely.

So, let's go write it up.
I'll show you the store.

-That's great.
-[Ted] I got him a good deal.

Make him happy. He's happy.
He came all the way down here.

Now, he can drive home
and have a smile on his face.

I like to see it because
it's keeping the history alive.

Other people would've
thrown those in the scrap.

This is great for our shop.
It'll set us ahead quite a bit.

It's always nice connecting
with Ted again in person.

We've developed friendship
and that's valuable.

[energetic music playing]

Been meaning to talk
to you about something.

-You're not quitting, are you?
-I'm definitely not quitting.

-Okay.
-I love this place.

But I think we can capitalize,
get more sales,

if we do
some more internet stuff.

I like on the worldwide web.

We get some short-form videos
on the internet.

Gotta do some socials, showcase
some of these awesome items.

With that wacky music
in the background, man?

I love that wacky music.

Some wacky music,
some voiceovers, you know.

I have a website.

Keep that going.
And let's add to it.

Make everyone see this stuff.

We're gonna
figure out the formula.

Brandon and I will
do some brainstorming.

-I'm in. I'm in.
-[Nick] Awesome.

[Ted]
All right. Thanks, Nick.

-Okay. I think that's good.
-I gotta grab the phone

and film over your shoulder
when you do that.

-Yeah, but we'll do that after?
-[Nick] Yeah. Yeah.

[Brandon]
It's just me sitting here.

All right, Brandon.
Eyes on the board.

Got some exhaust pipes here.
That's where the--

the exhaust
comes out nice and hot.

Don't wanna touch
that part when it's running.

What that is.

-[Ted] Gentlemen.
-Hey. Hey.

-What are you doing?
-We need some help from you.

We're filming some social stuff.

Really? Whatever
floats your boat, boys. Okay.

[Nick]
We need you to hold the camera

and do an over
the shoulder shot of Brandon--

Of Brandon not paying attention?
Okay. Gotcha.

-Did you get it?
-Yeah, I got it.

All right. We may not be
the best influencers,

but we love this salvage

and we wanna
share it with the world.

So, DM me if you're interested.

We can like speed up
these videos and stuff too.

-Yeah.
-[Brandon] Okay. Ready?

[Nick] Yeah.

[Brandon] We need Ted.

[Nick] You gotta look
at the camera too.

I think that's all we need

Actually, I think
that would be good.

-That's not bad.
-No, no, that was good.

That was good. We have this...

sexy mercury athletic scale

test your grip strength.
425 bucks, it can be yours.

[Nick] You know what,
actually I gotta try again.

[Brandon] 140.
No, no, no. It's my turn.

-[Nick] You okay?
-Let's see what I can do.

Ready?

[Nick] No way!

[Brandon] 165.

What are you guys doing?

-We're working.
-What work is this?

[Nick]
Our new social campaign.

We're gonna take
some short work videos

and, uh, post some online.

-[AJ] Just put the penny in?
-[Brandon] Put it in the top

-and then just pull away.
-[AJ] All right.

-[Nick] No way.
-[Brandon] Wait, 170?

Oh wait, how'd you do that?

That's crazy.

-Ready?
-Yeah.

Go.

I think that's good.
Let's-- let's watch it back.

That's good. That looked good.
Okay. Good job.

-Cool. Done.
-I think we have enough

-to edit into one video.
-Yeah. Let's see what

-we can get out of this.
-Cool.

Obviously, Nick and I still have
a lot to learn about salvage

and clearly we have a lot
to learn about social media.

But one thing we do have,
sweet guns.

Oh, for God's sake.

We got some exhaust pipes here.

We have this sexy
mercury athletic skill

test your grip strength.

425 bucks, it can be yours.

It's harder than it looks.
