    It's good that you've got someone to do the steel for you. You really need a truck and maybe even a trailer to haul that stuff to the yard. I toss the ac steel into the front bucket of the loader and run it down to the metals pile at work. The pile is getting awfully big these days. It's easily 14 feet high, 20 feet deep, and 60 feet long. All compacted metal. It ought to make for a pretty good load going out the next time the scrap yard comes around to pick up our metals.
    Used for barbed wire, cutting wire, pulling and driving in staples. don't forget the wire stretcher.

    Neat bet you can pull motor windings out with that.
