    Yeah they started inspecting mine the other day , granted these motors were from hvac units . About 20 lbs a piece . They inquired so I flipped one over to where I broke threw and scratched the windings . Next time I go that far I might have to break out the sawzaw . Kinda a punch in the gut for .20a lb . But I had over 100 lbs and if I didn't take them then they would have been in my way . My guess is 9 times out of 10 your gonna find aluminum windings in washers and dryers . They add up fast to so that's also a plus
