    You'll notice that most, if not all of my posts in this thread are Wednesday mornings... I drive right past my usual scrapyard every Wednesday in my work truck. It's literally zero gas & very little of my time to drop off shred (tin). I took the $17 I got this morning & bought pork steaks & a sixxer of beer. It's found money, and me & the missus are eatin' good in the neighborhood tonight. For free, basically.



    Nonferrous is getting hoarded for now, but the size of the can pile, the aluminum sheet pile, and the big stack of dirty 6063 I found the other day means that a small scale trip is in my not-too-distant future. I'm worried I'll be ticked off, particularly at the dirty 6063 price. Probably not much better than shred.
