$0.045 per pound isn't too bad during this down turn. And getting paid $33 to hang out with your son sure isn't bad either.
As far as brass goes and other more valuable metal, you can check out plumbing companies. A lot of them don't have the time or inclination to scrap their extra piping. Electricians likewise don't scrap their wiring. Water heaters usually have brass/copper you can take off of them. I'm not sure how I feel about buying brass and arbitraging scrap metal, though.
