Sounds like a great haul.
I got cuts today trashpicking a big tv someone had left in pieces on the side of the street - got copper, boards, miscellaneous stuff - maybe they just broke it for fun, I don't know. I didn't need stitches but the suckers hurt!
TY

You'd want me to stay away from that thread because I'd end up posting every few days. I was doing tear down and was filthy from head to toe when I went in. Didn't bother me a bit but I did get some looks and I just laughed. The doctor notice my hands and legs they have multiple cuts and scratches and a few super glued spots, this was when he first came in to look at my arm. He went and got a nurse to bring me a pamphlet about being in an abusive relationship full of numbers to get help. I laughed so ****** hard and tried to explain to her what I do and that all those are just part of the job.
You could tell the doctor was really embarrassed when he came back in. All they had to do is look in the computer and see that the last few times I was there I got by a TV.
