Grills - They're dirty but lots of AL and usually some SS. They go quick and removing any small pieces of steel from only takes a hammer and punch.

I'm getting so dependent on SMF for answers that I just searched here and never even thought to google it lol.
I bought this wire stripper on eBay for $17.95 + $14.95 shipping.

Pros: It works pretty good, and is easy...
I need a little help guys. How do you remove roll pins when only one end is exposed. I know to use a punch when both ends are exposed, but what if I can only access one side? I'd like to learn a...
Depends where your starting from, but if you're currently driving a car, I'd put $4500 into a serviceable used truck and $500 into a used trailer. Those are the only two items I use every single...
Sign up for the email alerts from APMEX. Sometimes they have great specials. I ordered Silver Eagles for $23.99 (on Wed before the big drop). Normally I wouldn't pay the extra for Eagles and would...
This one's more wood than metal, but it's still made entirely of scrap. I needed a vise in the shed for cleaning radiators, so I made this:

I feel so stupid lol. Thanks for the reminder to scratch the surface Bear.
It was so easy to score the metal and see that it's just aluminum, but I got carried away by the color. Thanks for...
I just tore apart an old Whirlpool upright freezer. Inside (where the food is stored), there was one section of the back covered with a sheet of Al. I pulled it off, and this was underneath:

I gave him $50 for the jet pump when I stopped today. He only had 1 pressure tank and some galv pipe for me to pick up today. I didn't give him anything extra for the scrap pick up. He told me...
I have bought from them twice, and was very happy both times. Their prices are better than eBay too.
I wouldn't lie if asked, but I wouldn't go out of my way to mention it either. Usually I set my price below market for a quick sell, and would rather not waste any time haggling.
In order:
Mixed metal (yard & garage clean ups - who knows how most of it got there)
Water tanks (hot water & pressure tanks)
Refrigerators
Gutters
Microwaves
Everything else
I agree. I figure that by now, he expects a few bucks when I pick up scrap. That's part of the reason I was hesitant to give him a piece of the resale profit. I didn't want to set a precedent. ...
Thanks also to everyone who gave congrats on the score.
To all of the posters who actually READ my post, and gave an opinion either way: Thank you.
I think the suggestions about giving him some sort of gift rather than cash are good advice. I don't...
He told me that the guy the pump came from switched over his whole system. This is the second working pump, but the other was a cheap Sears 1/3 hp that I still haven't decided what to do with.
I don't understand where the confusion is coming from. There was never any agreement silent, spoken, or written. The guy gets this junk and needs to dispose of it. I once mentioned that I scrap,...
Before this gets outta hand, I've decided to give him a cut. Not because I in any way owe him, but because it's good PR. My biggest concern is that he realizes that he may do pretty good selling...
Welcome from Forest Co.
Just for clarification, we never really made an actual deal. He started giving me the scrap for free, and I started offering him the 50%. I'm sure that by now he expects the money, but it's never...
Thanks all for the quick replies. I can see that everyone is on the same page here.
I got the same grinder last year. I use it infrequently, so I'm not too worried about the durability of it. So far it's been great. Gets the job done.
