Let me know in the comment section what you enjoy about micro scrapping.
Here is the video where I show a simple method to remove the copper from a magnetron without an angle grinder.

Micro scrapping is so great!!❤❤ it's a vastly underrated pass time 🥰 And there's an easier way to get that bottom plate off the magnetron. Grip the plate on the edge (just next to the folded tab) with pliers, grips, or even a small Cresent wrench, and pry/bend away from the fold; repeat on the other side if needed. Be careful, it tends to pop or release quickly😁

For the spool of copper you can cut through the middle with your cutters to do it much faster. You can also tie the end of the copper wire to a drill bit and use your drill to unspool it that way but use a long bit.

@@scrapitall200 my friend, I just got done scrapping 5 old CRT TVs and boy oh boy. I hit the mother load of copper, these TV's were from the late 70's to early 80's. The circuit boards were the old brown and thick. I am holding them as I believe they will have silver soldier and a lot of goodies on the boards as well. I found all of them in a pile beside the road. They ranged from 19" to 27" and some were Toshiba's , Apex, RCA and the others are Sanyo. But all of them are old. I am going to put all the components off the boards and see if I can extract the silver from them. I will get some pics and send them to you and get your thoughts on it.

All scrapping to me is therapeutic ❤ it's why I take care to calmly dissassemble everything. Also, there's an element of completeness "using every part of the [find]" to barrow and adapt a phrase from hunters. I recently baught a desoldering tool (let me know if you want the Amazon link) it makes depopulating boards a breeze and way less messy. I'm setting aside the clumps of solder to melt together and perhaps turn in at some point 😁🦝

The pink stuff is probably alumina with added CrO2. I have some beryllia tubes that are plain white, and I've seen magnetrons in all different colors. You probably don't want to breathe any powdered ceramic dust, but you're right, beryllia is the bad one. Just breaking it into pieces isn't really hazardous but if you're going to grind on it, try to do it under water or mineral oil to prevent dust.

I wish you live close by because I could give old microwave, all cords and old transformers you old Ethernet and catv wire wires I can’t be bothered I scraping I do the bigger stuff I can be bothering with the small stuff. I do hold on to a lot of stuff. I do collect the old liquid mercury thermostat throw in a plastic bottle bubble wrap every tub have probably 6 gallons now and liquid Mercury is worth a lot of money. Will sell it in future. Every raw metal has some form of value.

@@davepetro5676 I would love to take all your small scrap off your hands, but I’m sure there’s someone in your area who would be glad to take it off your hands. Oh interesting, I’ve never heard of anyone collecting mercury. Thats cool. Thank you for watching another video.

Thank you for the scripture. I will keep trying to lean on God's understanding... even when I fail I will keep asking for his forgiveness...

Amen to that. That’s all we can do sometimes. God knows our heart!

Zero $$ in micro scraaping ... period!
@scrapitall200 Ай бұрын
That’s not true at all! Plus, it’s a hobby that is so much fun. If you don’t like micro scrapping, why watch this video just to leave a negative comment? Don’t you think there’s enough negativity in the world already? Why add to it?

Great video. That scripture is a great reminder for all of us who follow Jesus. God bless you Scrapitall!

Thank you so much brother! It’s amazing how easy it is to worry about things and forget we are supposed to trust God with our entire life. Thank you and God bless you too.
