The biggest non-magnetron danger with older microwaves is....to your back lol. Some of those devils are weirdly balanced and just heavy enough to make for awkward lifting

What part of Turkey are you in?

Hey there! With that kind of weight and with the evident complete lack of experience you're gonna wanna contact one of the larger scrapyards in Istanbul or Ankara and ask them to broker a sale.

So I guess a scrap converter is the only part of a Lambo I could afford lol

Welcome to the forum from Las Vegas! Patriot gave some great advice on how to make the best use of the forum!

Did the folks you're getting it from have just one person operating it? You'll still need one more person at least to operate it to cut the ends and swap gaylords/supersacks. Really interested in...

Hi and welcome to the forum from Las Vegas! Hope prices go up soon too! Steel hasn't been great for a while but it's really the pits right now!

Since aluminum prices tanked it's lower on our priority list and we've reconfigured our chopper setups for wire instead. Our particular ACR shredding setup required one person to chop off the ends...

Hey went and double checked the maths and you'll likely exceed 50% *only* if including the larger multi-stack rads. Otherwise between 45-50%.

Nice one! Congrats!

Hey there. We shred them where I work. Your recovery should average at least 50% copper by weight with the triple stacks and higher having better recovery but being harder to shred. Preshredding...

Welcome to the forum from Las Vegas!

If cutting open sealed units and ballasts takes you awhile then you're not actually getting more money, not if you count your time as valuable. Without an efficient way to clean compressors or...

Should clarify that not every yard even has a 6061 price. Sometimes will sell as old sheet (clean aluminum sheet) or mlcc (100% clean unpainted alumimum) which is another argument against stripping....

The tubes are often but not always 6061 aluminum which, along with 6063, does have an extrusion premium. Only on the most massive scales does it make even a little sense to separate them and then...

Hi and welcome to the forum from Las Vegas!

By 12oz you're referring to copper, yes? If so that sounds about right but no it's not always that much, there is dramatically less in electronic ballasts which have recovery more like a computer...

Welcome to the forum from Las Vegas!

The main concern about sending for greater than scrap value is the size of the ram. By and large buyers are looking for 2gb and larger modules. What they came out of isn't so important so don't worry...

A lot of faucets are also die cast instead of cast too

Welcome to the forum from Las Vegas! You can only upload to a 3rd party hosting service to post pictures until you have a certain amount of forum posts. Looking forward to seeing how it goes for you!

Where I work we have a al-cu coil shredder but it's more in the $200k range and can produce up to five tons of copper per 8/hr shift. Fwiw it's a chinese machine and it shreds like a boss. Our wire...

If someone calls me a bum I just finish my beer and pee on their trashcan because I don't like to disappoint

You could ship pallets of material and make better money than small scale refining for most ewaste even if all the best paying buyers are all the way over in the east and s/e
