What did you scrap?

[hobo finds]

That was the last of my sheet iron, the best of the worse items. Twist ties, ribbon with wire, alkaline batteries, disposable razors, liquid soap pump, beer caps, tin cans, light bulbs, ballpoint pens, aerosol cans, pringles and coffee cans filled with alum foil, electrical cord ends and cut off Christmas lights. A mini fridge, printer and some chairs.

Thinking about getting rid of my electric motors as copper prices are up. Still holding on to my small copper stash. Hopefully Aluminium will keep going up as I have a bunch of clean stuff to unload.

Define electric motors. Last time I did motors at CFS, they said half horse and up. Small ones like fans, go as shred. WTF.

[hobo finds]

In the past I have gone to desert metals they have paid for electric motor price with a good mix of all kinds of motors, tiny ones up to pool or cooler motors.

Only went there once. Not impressed, but.. I don't know how much time I want to invest on using the grinder and saw z7all

[hobo finds]

The motors are whole. The only thing I break down is I smash off the plastic from plug transformers the wall wart kind of ones.
