I want to update the pricing as follows:
Price from the original post -
So it started out at 27.8 LBS at $.41/lb = $11.40
Broke down we had 3.5 lbs of copper at $3.50/lb = $12.25
.25 lbs of cast alliminum at $.52 = $.13
24 lbs of steel at $.10/lbs = $2.40
Total after tear down is $14.78 for a difference of $3.38
Price today - (actually price is from a few months ago, and may vary by location)
So it started out at 27.8 LBS at $.12/lb = $3.33
Broke down we had 3.5 lbs of copper at $1.90/lb = $6.65
.25 lbs of cast aluminum at $.12 = $.03
24 lbs of steel at $.0365/lbs = $.87
Total after tear down is $7.55 for a difference of $4.22
Big difference between the two percentage wise. You can more than double your money now. (correct my math if I am wrong anywhere)
