    New to scrapping: excited and kinda scared

    Hi all! Lucky to find such a place as this! Thanks for all of you who share your info and how-to's.

    I don't have a business, just an individual who realizes that too many people throw way too much crap out without much consideration.



    I'm new to scrapping in general and I'm glad to find out that I didn't make a crazy choice in acquiring a bunch of e-scrap. Though I also see there is so much to learn in regards to how to make it worth the while, and how to identify anything. There's so much more to it than I thought.

    And hello buddy to fellow Canucks!
