    Welcome to the forum and when you get a chance go to the intro section and start a thread there.

    Most important in my mind is that you have permission from a person who can give you permission to take this material home.

    In the end everything depends on what your buyer has to say. You can take them to a scrap yard and see what you can get. You could melt them and remove the much of the stuff other than the CU. I warn you its unlikely worth the effort.

    I also think that if there were significant amounts your company would already have way to recover and sell this material.

    BTW we like photos 73, Mike

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked
