Gotta like those alloy wheels. 73, Mike
Well that's all great finds. I hope those TV's are a lot easier to recycle down there in South Australia, and I hope you are handling that Freon properly.
I had to retire to have enough time to scrap.Quote:

The TV's are a 30 second to one minute pull for me with a power drill. I just open them up, take the guts, and put the top back on. If they are tiny tv's ill just throw them in and deal with them when I get home. Otherwise, I never pick up CRT's, I just gut them out on the spot and separate later.
I'm going to save my breath on this one. I'm sure someone else will say what I'm thinking.Quote:

I told him that that just meant he had been doing it wrong for 25 effing years.
