    Wink Hello every one, new scraper here.

    Just stopping by to say hello.
    I have lurked in this forms for a few before coming to the decision that scraping will be my new hobby. I don't have the time or the tools (right now) to make scraping a part time or a side job, but I feel that this will be a good hobby for me!

    I live in southern Arkansas, about 5 miles from the Louisiana border. I do have a scrap yard located in town and do know there are other scrapers here (tho don't know them).

    For now I'm going to stick with electronics and smaller items like that. All I have right now is my pickup truck, so hauling large items is a bit hard right now. Plus I work 8-5 so I don't have much time if any to really do drive arounds. My shed has been turned into a temporary set up right now. Desk to work on, work bench to stash stuff on and under, all I need now is to move some stuff and make a few shelfs to start sorting and grouping up.

    My main goal is to have stuff to break down on the weekends/weekday nights, so that at the end of the month/s I can haul it out to the scrap yard and put some change in my wallet.

    I look forward to meeting you all and learning some more as I set up my connections in my town and soon towns around me.

    Right now its more like "OMG IT's GOLD" Cardboard box. Still setting up my sorting. Got a few boxes for PC parts and have a broken down radio in a plastic bag waiting on me to grab more boxes.
    Loving the forums right now learning what I can as I try to find steady spots of E-Scrap.
