    Glad to meet everyone

    Hi everyone, just want to fulfill my duty and introduce myself. I am Ivan from Minnesota and I have been scrapping since I was a little kid. I started out with cans, then i began taking cans off the boulevards on recycling day (which was illegal but i was a 13 year old kid who didnt care). As I have gotten older I began to get into scrap iron and now I am in full swing of scrapping all sorts of materials. I have even broken both of my rear leaf springs from overloading my little ford ranger several times. The only one I am still trying to learn about is E-Scrap. At one point scrapping was my income while going to school. Since becoming a full time paramedic, i still scrap for the fun of it and extra money. In the month or so that i have been on this forum, I have learned a lot of great ideas and tips from you all. Hopefully I can contribute.
