    You have to have at least 10 posts to upload photos on the forum. Some previous members created video's on how to down load photo's. I am sorry I cannot give you details, but if you use the search bar in the upper right hand corner you will find those threads.

    I have plenty of shacks that I use for scrapping. Most of my scrap is stored outside and brought in to be broken down. One game I play is trying to move enough metal inside to keep me busy for the day without extra that I have to say good bye to in the evening. I use grain bins cut in half for my shelters in rural areas. Thee provide protection from the elements on two sides and the roof. When the conditions are really bad I will block one end with machinery or the other half of the grain bin. As a project is completed the bin is added to the top of the last load and scrapped. A shed on my property is used to store and break down non ferrous items that I collect from various farms. Just some ideas for those interested.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    You can provide the picture directly in your post using the "Insert Image" link after post 10 on the forum.



    I recently did this by uploading photos to a free service like photobucket. Click "Insert Image" and insert the URL of the photo uploaded at photobucket or similar site.
