    I'm working on a model for scrapping and need some imput

    I'm trying to build a model for the maximum amount you can make a week (on average of course) scrapping if you already work a full time job. I can't promise anything productive from this exercise but it may allow you to play with some numbers. I need to know your opinion on a few questions

    1) The average you make per hour scrapping and by scrapping I mean at your shop taking apart things (I know that you can land a huge haul and sell a few things online and make a lot, but I want to know the average. I will be adjusting for the hauling later. Let's just pretend that after an hour of working in your shop you immediately get paid, adjusting for shipping etc, for what you produce.
    2) How many miles to you typically drive per week (including to the post office, scrap yard, pickups, etc)




    If you don't feel comfortable answering these questions online you can pm me or skip over the question. No hard feelings. As i said, I'm a math-guy and I like playing with numbers.
