Completely dismantle a car. I've got two in my yard I plan on doing ( one day) just to see what profit would be. Or sky diving.
Gold prospecting can be a great challenge mentally and physically. And I'm not talking computers. Winter can be used to research locations, techniques, and equipment. In the warm months, try what you learned. Collect concentrates to work next winter and update your plan of attack.
Metal detecting, goes somewhat hand in hand with scrap because that's all I find :). However doing research and exploring are fun for me and there is always that chance of treasure.
Ice fishing
Traping, you can make some good money selling furs as well as removing varmints.
Turning scrap wood into furniture.
Lego investing. google it !!!
Get into something you've never done before like maybe if u haven't sold on eBay? Maybe go to some storage auctions, or real auctions and buy and sell. Create a new service such as foreclosure clean outs, or demo or something that you'd like to do but can earn money doing

Have you read any of his posts? Pretty sure he's done everything you've mentionedQuote:

Thanks for all the responses!!!......LOL some better than others..........Not really in hobby mode or metal detecting would be a great one...........Just throwing it out there if someone locally or semi-local had a project or something they may need help with (either financially or with truck/trailer) I would be interested if I saw at least a little profit in it.........
I live in the city so that may be a little off my radar........From experience let us know how it wasQuote:

I know you've made bank with ewaste Mike but I do love the thrill of the hunt when it comes to steel and of coarse non-ferrous metal. Each job is usually different and figuring out the logistics of getting it loaded and from point A to point B can and will cause a bald spot from scratching your head in the same place. Moved about 10 tons in the past week...yes prices are low but it seems some of the competition has said uncle, fine by me.
There are benefits of lower prices, eh KZ?
I know it's taken a dive but I find a lot more when I'm out an about then I did earlier this year.
Sirscrapalot - Note to self - Harass KZ more.
