    I dont know about the yard you go to. but mine will take the dishwasher whole as shred plastic and all. I rip out the wires, heating element, and the motor and just leave the rest one the plastic and get shred price for the rest. Might be worth checking into.

    Me too...I use all appliances to put shred into....all my little stuff like nuts and bolts and all little stuff. Works great unless your yard doesn't take them whole like that.

    Yeah that is what we now do too.... We really made this video to show our subscribers what exactly is in it. That way someone doesn't waste their time on it... =) Thanks for commenting!

    haha. I like how he spent time getting the hose clamp off at 8 to 10 cents a lb and passed on the brass at 1.40 to 1.70 a lb.

    Plus behind that brass is a bit of copper in the solenoid.

    He could wrench on that all day and it won't come. That fitting sits in a bracket with a hex shape. Or at least the fittings I have done are that way. If I am rushed for time I zip the whole bracket off with a cutoff, then toss it into the 'break it down later' pile.

    He did end up scrapping the brass piece after the video was over. LMAO
