    went t5o the yard yesterday, didn't know weather to laugh or cry

    when I got to the yard there were about 15 various vehicles there. only two were scrapper trucks im guesson. no disrespect ment here cause I was in a car my self, . but as I walked past the line to the counter, I just had to shake my head at the lost money in those trunks. most got probably half real value out of their scrap. im guesson most were noobs, who had no idea what they were doing. one guy had #4 insukated cu cablemusta been 3/8 thick mihed with that insulated al/ steel teliphone stuff. several had ac radiators with the metal frames and copper ends still attached, musta been 15 0r twenty ac compressors whole and countless el motors, I actually got a little sick to my stomach. now these people wer not carying big loads just a dab here and a dab there.

    my advise to noobs is study the archives learn your craft. or sell it to some one who knows what to do with it. the yard dont care they will end up with it any way. ( dont try to buy scrap fron some one who is already in the yard tho thats a no no)
