    I have the feeling scrap will remain dead til gas hits 3$ a gallon again. Been bitter cold here so I haven't been collecting or torching much up. Don't want to burn up a bunch of gas and oxygen and have to wait 6 months to sell because the price is crap. Did pickup a "free" gas stove less than 2 blocks from the house couple weeks back other than that just building on demo cars.

    I have been working on equipment, building a shop, and just preparing for a rebound in prices as well. I have also been preparing a lot of heavy iron and leaving it in piles at various farms. It is easy to load and move a liquid oxygen tank and 100 lb. propane tank in the back of the truck compared to hauling trailers with skid steer and other equipment through snow drifts. Plan is when the roads clear, the price goes up, it will be time to turn and burn. Just hope I can remember where the piles are at.
