When 'the dollar falls' it falls relative to other currency. Also, if 'the fed prints mor fiat dollars' [sic], it creates economic force for price inflation. Those two sentances describe two sides...

I recently replaced my hoses because there was a hole in the oxygen line.
As I sit here, I wanna say I run the propane at about 6psi and the oxygen at about 20. Sometimes I have trouble keeping the...

good line. A little rude, but a good line.

Well buck you too, Proud Mary. I read in the e-scrap forum area that when a scrapper gets into a new type of item, it is good practice to read thru these forums to see if there's anything to watch...

I think I was after more of an 'order of operations'. Like:
Front wheel first, then seat, then motor/trany, then wiring harness, ...
and any helpful ideas like:
Set the frame up on a metal milk...

The local dump has contract for businesses to take their metal scrap, their appliances, and their tires and probably some other stuff. One thing I am working on right now is permission to go through...

OH I'VE THOUGHT about it. Kinda comforting to know other people are making a go of it. The dump around here has hours that really SUCK for your average M-F, 9-5 household. They are also open...

I think its kind of a matter of scale. If you have a few pieces (<100#) per ton, I think MOST yards around here (Southeast Minnesota) would just let it through. I also heard many years ago that...

I am getting an old motorcylcle this week (free). I took a quick look on my way home today and I think its a mid-80's 250cc class. Anyone have advice about HOW to scrap such a thing? Tires and...

Actually this thread is encouraging. I can go into a place like this buy it in a way that makes owner satisfied, then still come out awesome myself. I DID know that, but its nice to be reminded...

so about $1.25 per pound, #2 insul rate. Hmmm

Communication wire is below #2 insulated. I get 30 or 40 cents / lb around here for comm grade wire. Your volume may help the price some.

I bought a manual tire changer and mounted it on a wooden pallet. It worked 'as advertised' in this video. The very first tire I did took me less than 4 minutes.

Farmers have been trying to coordinate that same meneuver for decades or centuries. It can't work with a large number of commodity suppliers. Some will reenter 'early' if they ever even stop at...

Aw, you beat me by 4 minutes. I've been lurking for a couple weeks too. This forum is a really good resource.

This looks like a pretty good forum and community.
I've been doing scrap on and off for 20 years. I did it as semi-serious moonlighting back in the early 90's. Prepared steel was $60 to $80 back...
