Thank you. I like doing it a little bit, but I'm not professional, the truth is most of those photos were taken for my digital photography class. However it appears that I may have found another use...

I received a couple of docking stations for an old Lenovo X200 Tablet PC. I didn't recall anyone mentioning these things, so when I took one apart I decided to take some photos and upload them to...

I'm not sure if this will help, but here's a guy from South Dakota:

Lately when I take trips to the yards I notice the same items again and again. I was just wondering what are the items you always notice? Mine are umbrellas and bike parts (specifically kick stands).

I guess I'll try:
1: Those foreign workers who were leeching off of my wifi
2: My school trying to guilt me into giving them money for Africa/Cambodia/Vietnam/Philippines/Tanzania/Indonesia etc....

That bus must've been fun, where did you find it?

Hi everyone. I recently got a load of hard drives (PC tower kind) and I was wondering if I should break them completely down. I think I read I should remove the boards so I am doing that, but I am...

I take them apart because of the aluminium and the wires and the boards

I forgot to mention, but the device is NOT magnetic. Thanks all!

Hi, I recently got a metal detector and I was trying it out. I live on a piece of property that was owned by British colonists, so I thought I would find some cool things. I did find some stuff, but...

Thanks for the info, my only problem is what to do with all of the glass afterwards?

You'd be surprised about the audacity of some "scrappers", back when I used to live on Guam some criminals stole these bronze or brass plaques that were from the war memorial on Guam. They sold them...

Recently my Uncle threw away 2 bicycle locks, now at my yard they actually accept these things even with the rubber and plastic bits and pieces attached. So I wasn't against taking them. Anyway I was...

Thanks guys. I'll see what my yard takes them as.

If you haven't destroyed the keyboard yet, I remember reading a user's post about how used keyboards can fetch good prices on Ebay. Sine you got this for free then you can definitely start at a low...

Hi guys, Sorry if this has been asked before, but I noticed that some stainless steel is magnetic. Things like knives, forks, tweezers, scissors, etc. I know that they are stainless because it says...

What about magnesium?

I have this weird idea. So there's this store that sells stainless steel plates that are relatively small maybe the size of an ashtray. Some are painted yellow to imitate a gold like color. They sell...

From where I am they aren't worth too much. I can't remember the prices too well. What I'd do in your shoes is keep them separate, then inquire a yard about them. Some yards consider them as plastic....

Alright see the graphics card? To the left of the topmost motherboard. That black thing on top, its probably aluminium. Unscrew it, it usually requires a normal Philips screw driver. Sometimes...

If there is a lot of foam, then couldn't you burn the whole fountain? It may weaken the metal, and it may also drop its value. However the copper should still be preserved right? After all that's...

Lol back in Malaysia we had a mattress that wasn't slept in for years, it had acquired unknown amounts of water damage and bat guano. We took it out and torched it, the thing went up in flames in...

Hey thanks guys, I'll keep picking them up, I recently got a net full of them, but they were all corroded. When I took them down to scrap yard they took it as iron...... I'm not sure if I was scammed...

Thanks I didn't know that the connector bits were gold, I've been throwing them away, oops. However that silvery bit on upper left motherboard in the third pic. That's aluminium and its easy to break...

There was a bike chained up to a pole near my house for like 4 months. It was pretty heavy but unfortunately it wasn't aluminium the tires were gone, but almost everything else was there. Well one...
