If your afraid to get your hands dirty your in the wrongh bussness. just my .02

ditto on the bleeding thing. My partner sheds blood every time we get together. I am about 50%. I rip all of the easily removable pure pastic from a printer and throw it in my recycle bin for the city to take. Of course I grab the cartridges and if it is a fancy printer I grab tha card. The remaining hull gets tossed in my trailor to go to the steel yard for shred.
