If you have already seen the video. The transformers in the video are from microwaves. What you have described sounds to me to be a smaller transformer. The transformers that have the copper wrapped in a yellow taped are too time consuming for me to scrap. (not cost efficient - time is money) Though I did have to learn the hard way & scrap a few to learn this.. LOL Instead I put them in my CBM pile (Copper Bearing Motor) pile and get paid around 15 cents per pound. Because of the heavy steel square around it they do add up quickly! Hope this helps!
