I am loving that property of yours there Buddy. Always fun to watch a master at work. I wonder if you might be able to remove that plastic / Bakelite type material by heating those pieces and tossing them into water and then your signature towel and hammer work. A pound and a half of copper, great job. How much does the scrap yard pay for those spiders. LOL

I haven't done any of the newer electric lawn mowers but I did cut up a few electric lawn mowers from i think the 70's and got lucky that my mower decks were aluminum too. They were orange and white or maybe silver? believe they were black and deckers. They all came from the same cleanout job

I always try to get those big ferrite magnets out unscathed, but they can be a challenge. I have need for healing of inflammation in my right elbow. Since I am also a hobby scrapper, I doubt whether wrestling with armatures and rusty nuts forms the cause. But rest and medication hasn't fixed it. Perhaps you can work wonders through prayer. And besides that, I'd like to hear you pronounce my KZfaq name 😅
