i have considered this myself, as i have had several people offer me venture capital to turn my one man operation into a full time career. i will be interested to see what some of the yard owners on this forum have to say about how to get started. obviously having a small yard to buy non ferrous items would be easy enough to set up with a little space and some startup money, but to be a truly successful operation, im sure theres a few more factors i should learn about.

Good luck Daw
