    scrapping4ever's hauls

    I figured it was time to make a thread about what I get. Today there was a church rummage sale. Last day. Could fill a bag they provide for $2 . I filled it with cords, cordless phones, a drill charger that I need, And some rain ponchos-you never know. Then I found one of those old aluminum coffee makers that would probably go in a break room. I grabbed that and also found 4 aluminum pans. Put those in there. The lady gave me a deal because it was the last day. Total investment of $3

    So I took apart one of those want to rip your hair out lnbs and you know it was pretty normal until I removed the board and found this I figure this must be plated of maybe it's just brass.There was another question I had - toll refining is where you have someone get a large quantity of gold bearing and get it to pure gold right. Then I was wondering if any of you planned on doing this and if so do you use all gold content boards or just high content boards like lnb and cell phone boards

    Sorry for being such a braggart but I can't help myself. I think today may be in my top 10 scrap days. So today I started out by loading up and making 139.35 and grabbing a piece of copper from shred, then I went to pick up a dryer but got stopped by a freezer my neighbor threw away, off to get the dryer and a 2nd location to get a hot water heater and by my house a neighbor had 2 bags of cans, took those apart and then my Uncle's girlfriend calls me to let me know another neighbor has got some junk in front at the curb- it was a fan and a radio that I will sell, sitting around I get a call that I got a full sized a/c and evaporator coil but on the same street 2 different houses. 1 has 2 vacuums and the other has a fire pit. Pick up the a/c and head home. It's my thread I can post as much as I want.

    Don't tear them apart until we see the pics. Might be more valuable intact!
