Now Lets look at some of the hardware items in an apartment that we can pull and profit from:

Copper Ground wire that was installed in 1954 but has been abandoned along many years of rehab. I get lucky when I have to pull the floor of the bath or kitchen ceiling to get these bad boys:


Copper Ground Wire Pulled: YUMMY!


Door Stops: Bent, broken or worn:


Door Stops: All of the bodies are steel the really old ones you get a brass screw and a brass "knub" they don't amount to much.. but every ounce counts!


HVAC Vents:
