Hey All from Winchester,VA

Doing some home work about the business, I broke my ankle back in Nov. and am still recovering. The company I had worked for is fighting my workers comp. So I got my self a lawyer and will be looking at some money here in the near future.

This is one of the things I am thinking about getting into

I worked for a large scrapper long time ago out of Mass. THEY Were huge, they Scrapped the million gallon oil tanks

any info on how to get started would be great. I have read some posts and found some good info.



how about some tricks of the trade?
how to move through the scrap the quickest?
tips on how to tell what metal your dealing with besides a magnet
I know the difference be tween copper, Alum, and Steel but what else is there?

Thank you for all the replies in advance
