    New to the site

    Hello everybody and hope you are well, my name is Damien and am new to the site, im based in west yorkshie uk and thanks for having me.
    I do work full time as a van driver but in my spare time love to get myself in my shed and take things apart to scrap, i find it very relaxing. Kind of got caught in the wee/ewaste side of it now but its a mine field. At the min im stripping full boards and just keeping most things as not sure what they are. With normal scrap i take off transformers and motors and try to seperate most metals although time consuming i really dont mind. But as i said mainly looking at the ewaste side so any help on what to look for and pics would be most appreciated.
    AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

    Hi DJ. Welcome to the site from the State of Maine in the USA.

    You might find it's a little bit late to the e-waste party. It's dropped off quite a bit over the last five years. Little or nothing coming in these days except for TV's.

    A really good source for electronics recycling information is :

    https://boardsort.com/

    It will help you learn what to look for and how to sort all the different kinds of circuit boards you run across.

    Best of luck and Happy New Year !
