    Ditto ditto & be carefull with the stainless steel edges. Thats about the only thing I cut myself on. Just as sharp as razor blades.

    Wear good gloves with some arm protection & never wrench or pull at something. Most dishwashers shells are stainless with some non-stainless thrown & welded in. I get about $12 each shell, but its hard work & really DANGEROUS.



    Actually I wouldn't reccomend doing it to anyone else. Get the motor & wiring & copper, maybe sell the control panel on ebay as they break often.

    Like I said not worth it. Way to much work. If you put them all together you will get motor prices on your aluminum ones too and you will still have time to go find more scrap.
