Does anyone know of any good educational scrapping websites? This is other than Youtube of course. I don't really care so much about what the current market price of copper is (I can get that at KitcoMetals.com). I care more about learning about stuff like:

1) Here is how you screen for good dumpsters without having to get out of your car.
2) Here is how you break apart a large transformer.
3) These types of wires are worth stripping. These types are not.
4) It can be dangerous to scrap a microwave if you don't know how to avoid the radiation. This is what you can do to make it safer.
5) Here are some good ways to get stuff out of dumpsters that are out of your reach without having to get in the dumpster.

Any good sites that anyone can recommend?

Thanks for the site name. I'm starting to look at it now. And I did see a posting by hobo.
