    New guy from GA

    Hello everyone, just wanted to say hello from Georgia. I'm 26 but have been scrapping for years in various forms. When I was little we lived in rural Missouri and my brother and I would walk down gravel roads with my parents collecting aluminum cans for extra money. In college, I'd dumpster dive and turn in scrap metal. I still collect it and I still make money! I'm the kind of person that everyone dumps their junk on because they know I'll take it but it is beneficial for me. I love antique machinery and old cars and such and I also love recycling so the two go hand in hand in a way. People give me "junk" and I'll decide what to do with it! Ebay, keep or scrap.

    I just wanted to say hello and even though I may not post alot, I'll always be observing... It's a daily thing to check during my Internet time now!

    Take care,
    Arthur Ash III

    well, Arthur, you have a lot more experience at scrapping than I do, but I feel like I'm in graduate school almost every time I come on the forum. Welcome and enjoy. BTW, I'm down in the SW corner of GA.
