So I figured I'd start keeping a log of sorts on here to track my progress in this new "hobby". After around 20 days or so of getting into ewaste this is what Ive gotten so far:
9 cable boxes
1 modem
1 playstation 2
1 alarm clock
4 comp towers
10 lbs low yield wire
3 additional hard drives whole.
I've payed $31 dollars for scrap so far and reclaimed $10.50 from some wire/shred/al cans (My first trip to the yard!). I overpayed on the cable boxes but I learned a cheap lesson.
Things I haven't broken down yet:
1 power supply
1 cable box with inverted torx bolt (I opened one with brute force but it was a lot of work!)
1 tower
1 hard drive (besides board).
Things I need to figure out what to do with:
Low grade boards
Power supply boards
HD platters (need secure data destruction)
PLASTIC (I need to find somewhere in my city that will take this type of plastic as I don't want it in the garbage).
I'll post pictures and weights once I get it all broken down.
