    19 year old scrapper from Arkansas

    Hey y'all, I'm xander, recently started scrapping to save up for college cause all my money for my normal job goes to bills. To think three years ago I couldn't wait to be an adult with my own place. I wish i could slap young me every time I said that. But anyway I decided to call my business natural state recycling. Still on the fence about getting my llc.

    Thank you all for being so welcoming, and yes sirscrapalot we do exist. And I'm kinda embarrassed to say that I got buried in the archives for two months and forgot to make an account until now. Thanks to this website I learned how to break down a couple of old drinking fountains I found and I found out that I didn't have to just take the compressors in. So glad I asked for an angle grinder for my birthday, I would have missed out on so much if I hadn't.

    I've been playing this game for over ten years and I'm still on the fence about going llc. The only thing holding me back is having to pay an extea 300 to have a second set of taxes done. From my other full time job.....no thanks.. maybe after I find more constent material sources during the winter months..
