    Hello I just arrived

    Hi all
    I moved from South Jersey to San Antonio this year (retirement and other reasons)
    I became interested in scrapping through my dad. After he passed away, I helped my mom take what was left of his scraps and was so excited that I could make money this way. As I downsized my house every piece of metal was put aside for scrapping. Now I look forward to getting into this as a part time thing to supplement my retirement income. Luckily my fiancé is in air conditioning and refrigeration. A good source. I am slowly convincing him that stripping the stuff is better than tossing it. I look forward to becoming a part of this forum. I have read so many exciting things already.
    Thanks
    Cathy

    Welcome to the forum Cathy. Be careful with getting into the scrapping industry, (LOL) Once it gets in your blood, nothing else will satisfy the crave to scrap.

    Again, Welcome.
