I like to mix it up a bit, only so many things you can show how to scrap or clean up, but a lot of people never go back and watch the old videos, so I need to redo them from time to time. and calls have been very slow this year, I think that I have been getting more calls from people that I got scrap from last year, then calls from the add this year. but too hot to do too much outside, and prices being low I'm not too worried about getting a lot done. I need to melt some aluminum

I appreciate that! and I am glad that I can teach the new scrappers and give tips to others, thanks for watching

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching

Glad it was helpful!

Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for stopping by Joseph

you got that right, glad we don't have to put it back together.

yeah, glad my ac works good.

Thanks for the visit

Glad I could help. a lot of the time I have to look around and ask myself what I want to make a video of today?

Thanks for watching

ooo that would be nice, I am from the Tacoma area and miss the 60's and the rain

good idea, it takes very little time to do that and comes out much easier, that is what we want, fast, easy or both

Yeah, the bench gives quite a bit, that sounds like a good idea.

yeah, that would help, it is a light work bench, I need to get under it someday and screw it to the wall too

That’s a darn good idea… a 4x … brace leg for when you need it! Maybe make a little metal pocket so you could just slide it in then kick it under! Tripod leg… 👍😁😉

you may be able to if you have a good strong vice, the pipe jaws may work good for that,

I think they would pop out much easier with just a lite tap of the hammer. thanks for watching

That is what I was going to suggest. I have wondered the best way to get clean brass from those and now I know, thank Alan. Dave, if you try that before I get to it let me know how it works. Later, Rich

a guy could make the 2 relief cuts first and they should pop right out

@@richgoss6013 I was helping an old drunk neighbor who had a little run…the local hvac guy was giving use 5-6 sometimes 8-10 and the 100 gallon ones too… he would like us take the heavy metal drain line to…so I’d sledge those bells to get that lead as it was.50 cent a pound t… he was a $100 dollar stop at least… he’d save his copper for the kids college fund… trash cans of copper pipe stacked up!!! It was a fun couple years…old buddy died and I took a break.., I usta spin those out and my old buddy would bust my stones… I cleaned a 5 gallon bucket kinda driving the shaft back and cutting the tougher ones… a full bucket of that brass cleaned is decent money… I busted those bells to get my 50 cents a pound lead too… about 2 hours I had two 5 gallon buckets @ $50 bucks a bucket… he wanted in on it then… I hit him with if you don’t work then you don’t get paid… I made his old butt wack a couple of them… he always got his cut of the loot… he taught me a lot about scraping and a little about life too!

@@Okiescrapper yeah.. I saw when you were cutting that pressed ring and as soon as you tapped through the brass and barely tapped it that it was done… it’s a light little soft metal ring… I’ve been using the electric harbor 4” grinder’s and grab their 5? Packs of 4”cutoff wheels… they jumped up good on price it seems like…. Bought some Diablo 5.5”? From eBay… they were a tad more expensive but they were thinner and they cut a lot more metal before they wore down…. Metabo blades are what I hunt for cheaper on eBay…I love them metabo blades the best…. A real sharp cold chisel and a couple smacks on that ring and you might not need to waste a blade? A sharp carbide chisel

@@Okiescrapper I gotta stop scraping.,, can’t bring the stuff home to sort.,, I’m junking the place up they say!!! LMFFAO!!!

I doubt that I have never seen one around here. thanks for stopping by

the safe way is the best, even if it takes a little longer. Glad I could give you some ideas Walt, thanks for stopping by

yeah they all came off of tanks that I picked up, I have a bunch more. I have a wire basket outside on a self that I toss them into

they are fast to clean up

@@Okiescrapper yea I clearly didnt fact check my spell check. I put I wonder how a dremel with a cut off wheel would do. Those are pretty small discs too. I just got a wireless 4.5-5 in and I went ahead and got a baurer 8 amp from harbor freight for the shop. Got it for 29 bucks we will see how it does.

it's a copper tube with a thin metal rod inside with some insulation between the copper and the rod, it is used to read the temperature of the water

it might. if a guy could modify a chisel by cutting the end off and then welding a short tube to fit over the rod that might work

@@Okiescrapper I will try it. Cut the punch off weld on a piece of pipe. What a great idea thanks

it looks like copper with some insulation inside, may ask your yard what they would pay for them

@@Okiescrapper mine gives me #2
