    Tell us a little about yourself.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    For me scraping is not just a way to make some cash, its a way to escape to the garage and tear stuff apart, see what makes it work. I've actually learned how to repair many things over the years from scraping. I've also stock up on bolts, nuts, screws, and othere hardware over the years. people think I'm nuts for saving so much junk, but if I could some how calculate the money I've saved, not having to buy parts for lawn mowers, home repairs, ect. it would probaly be a good amount of cash.
