Fallout: New Vegas Hints
How can I get supplies for him?
1 of 4: As you scavenge around in various areas, save up all the tin cans (including bent ones) that you find.
2 of 4: Isaac will take other old metal items, such as scrap metal and pressure cookers, but those are useful for other things. (So are unbent tin cans if you have the Rose's Wasteland Omelet recipe for crafting Campfire Items, but that's of very limited value.)
3 of 4: The best source for tin cans is Aerotech Suite 200 at the Aerotech Office Park (location 13 on the Zone 2 Map). There are 74 bent tin cans in there, plus 57 unbent ones.
4 of 4: Turn metal items in to Isaac as you get them (or all at once), then ask if he has enough scrap metal yet. If you've turned in 100 or more items, he'll say yes and give you 200 caps.
