Your youtube channel so I can follow you

Thanks,
Connie C

there are some vids available here on the forum, we are not, for the most part you tube fans, as many you tubbers are more into themselves and their ego then correct information, safety, or education. This is a dangerous profession not to be taken lightly. mcw

I have a youtube account but I don't post scrapping videos, I don't know enough :)

Thanks OldDUDE but i've worked with Metal since I was 10 years old my daddy held the title in western NC as top welder and i've help pull a many a peace of metal off trucks I also lifted double looper 454 motors when I worked at Outboard Motor Company as both a cast cleaner and a welder so I can't see where anything I encounter to LIFT will be a problem or dangerous as u put it. I also have a crew of 7 helping so anything I can't do i'm sure the men of the bunch can get it done for me. As far as dangerous chemicals also handled those when daddy worked at feldspar sulfuric acid is what I've always cleaned rust stains with in bathtubs and such so i've got nes equipment on board already. I was just asking for youtuber's links as I enjoy watching there video's of a night once i'm finished working to see what they have got in and what there latest scrap project is in case i've missed something on my own.

Again Thanks,

Connie

I agree , however I have seen a few that are informative and well done
Sadly they are few and far between.

Connie- You might find this thread interesting...

I don't place much faith in YouTube scrapping videos. Most of them will either get you killed, or are pointless.

I do watch PickerBenny's channel every now and then, though. The link to it is in the thread referenced in the last post.

I think youtube is a great source if you're looking for "basic" information but you have to be able to ignore the BS. Scrapping4adart has a lot of good videos and no silliness. Mike the scrapper has a lot of good videos and a little silliness. He talks about identifying different types of metals, grading ewaste, where to find scrap and safety. Youtube is where I looked for scrapping info when I first started and I learned a lot. Scrapping4adart is how I found the SMF. I watched videos there and started reading here. I believe it kept me from asking a lot of 'basic" questions. At some point if you are serious about scrapping you need to say bye to youtube come on over to the scrap metal forum and get a real education.

I just wanted to add that my post above was not directed toward the OP (Connie). I'm just trying to say to everyone that youtube is a good tool to get started but the SMF is a better one.

again thanks everyone I always say you can't get to much advice nor to much knowledge. Daddy raised me to throw my back into anything I go at and to NOT GIVE UP LORD KNOWS DADDY NEVER DID. As far as youtube goes I love Moose Scrapper followed by Mike The Scrapper those are really the only one's i've found that is informative, I'll check out the one u guys mentioned also

HAPPY SCRAPPING EVERYONE

Connie don't forget these if you haven't glanced thru them yet
