I guess scrapping doesn't always go as planned.

    I kind of just want to get rid of it and I haven't been able to clean a lot of the copper and aluminium to where I won't be docked. I know people say to just sell wire unstripped but I would rather hang on to it until I can get a stripper and maximise my profits or maybe by then I will have a furnace and can melt down and cast some of the less valuable stuff into souvenirs for the tourists or something.

    I actually am getting my trailer back on Sunday, I just found out, so I might be able to haul everything in that I have ready. I had given it to a friend to use for the last 3 months but they are done and will bring it back so that is handy. It's just a small utility trailer but it can handle a few hundred pounds easily enough.

    As for the steel I will try to strip some floor out next week and have a place to put a good pile of it. Right now I am moving stuff back and forth and the steel is becoming a pain in the neck. I could pile it outside but I already look hillbilly enough and don't need any more attention.
