Could someone confirm if that correct and generally accepted as #2 copper in most yards? It seems that pretty much all the yards I've seen have not much tolerance on contaminated copper (none on #1 and maybe some soldering or burn on #2 and that's it) and they won't be happy to see ceramic in their copper bins. Also, if I cut them out of PCB instead of desolder them, do I lose just a bit of copper each time or buyers can seriously be displeased that I did that?
