The fridge compressors have decent value, as is (.03 above short ) getting the copper out is work unless you have equipment, and the will to do it.
To be honest, i dont have a good selection of tools or the right equipment to start cutting and grinding, what i do have is a basic tool kit, willpower and a lot of time!
These fridges are cheap, i can see them having the basic bits, but i cant see them being goldmines?
I will continue to breakdown these items and post the results and any photos of items that im not sure of, I can see me running into problems from the start?
Many thanks for your advice mate
Be Lucky
