    ...So in closing I just am curious how scrapping because most of you'll life???...

    Been scrapping now for 5 months. Started when a cousin who has rental houses asked to use my pick-up to get rid of a washer and three dryers. Went online and discovered motors, wiring, steel, aluminum, and copper were worth cash! Told him I would haul them off for free (family, right?). Broke them down in my garage with a hammer and screwdriver.

    As I'm enjoying the pizza and beer that stuff helped buy, I realized: 'People throw stuff away. I can pick it up and sell it.'

    Just a raw newbie's opinion, but here are 4 rules:

    1) Be Honest (I sleep good at night)



    2) Work Hard (Wake Up and Get Going!)

    3) Work Smart (Read these Forums, Let Other People Make the Mistakes/Show You the Way)

    4) Get the Tools (Scrapping Forum/Videos Can Show You the Metal That Helps You Break Down Metal)

    Best, Steve
