    Is this in all one length, un-tangled if so get a pull through stripper it will be cheap and easy, 2 tones is probably about 5 grand worth of copper, so unless your going to keep getting wire I wouldn't invest in anything too crazy. Are you going to need any paperwork for all that copper, if so hopefully you can get back in touch with who you got the wire from.



    My sister keeps bugging me to move to AUS if there is that much of a scrap market maybe I should?

    Hi,thanks for reading my post.The wire is in verious lengths and gages and is not tangled.it is all the left overs from building a new power station on the island.I have also quiet a lot more from a demolished wharehouse and regular visits to the dump.This place is realy a scappers paradice.There has been phosphate mineing on the island since the 1880s and the metal is very rarely recycled even to this day i have gathered solid ali radiaters that weigh 125kg each, huge amounts of copper pipeing brass and the list just goes on.I have a registed buissiness here ,and that is all i legaly require in Australia. I moved from New Zealand 20 years ago it was one of the best decistions i have ever made. Go visit your sister and have a look at the standard of living and the quality of life its fantastic,how ever in saying that Christmas Island is a speacal place like no other.Thanks and happy scrapping
