    ... And ask them for their junk then don't need....and have them call you or grab for you when they see discarded metal. Tell 'em you enjoy your relaxing hobby. Don't gloat about the money you make. Just gloss over that and remind the buddies how cool they are when they help you make junk connections. Provide cold drinks once in a while in exchange for metal favors.

    Heck, I gave one buddy a multi-tool w/wire cutter 'cause he walks thru alleys a lot. He brings me wire and cans....'cause he knows I collect them. When we get together weekly, I buy the coffee. Sweet gig, that is.
