My yard pays more for clipped cords. I also separate the clean brass ends and dirty brass ends.

Nice scrap run. Lots of goodies from those units

What do you do with all those (empty??) cans??? I know you said you sell them on ebay? People buy empty cans on ebay?

My yard buys wire inns as copper content at .20 a pound

The blunp or was it the Hindenburg?

It's pretty easy. I scrapped a bunch of coffee makers. The heating elements are mostly aluminum with a steel heating wire inside. I had a small homemade furnace with a vent tube for a hair dryer to fan the flames. It got hot enough to melt aluminum but couldn't melt the copper yet.

My yard gives a much higher rate for clean cord $1.05lb

in the alternative you could gang a bunch up & make a diy welder

*This is what happens when you live in your Mom's basement*

What the heck is a bubbler?

How do you take your first person videos? I've been trying for a while and my footage is always shaky or the wrong angle.

Hi when striping look out for MOSFETs. There is a lot in newer devices and are used to make buck converters, power switches ith unlimited uses with the right knowledge. More to striping than collecting metal for cash. 😊

The junkie that stole the copper from my Air Conditioner would love this channel.

I’m a little confused about you video title. What in this video was better than gold? Just curious as I have been scrapping for a long time and nothing really stood out to me.

Sweet! Hotels are a great source. What a great score, you'll be busy for a while.

Nice haul. Hope you get big $$$$$.

I am to old to hop in and out of dumpsters. I have made relationships with several computer repair shops near me. They are happy to know it's getting recycled. I get copper steel aluminum and gold and silver. they call me when they are needing room.. not getting rich it's a complex process to recover the gold. It's worth it. Not planning to get rich but better than stripping tv's

Preach it brother. I have a job that pays 52k a year I am a disabled vet and get some money for that. Not rich but I get by. I scrap for fun relaxation and bring in about $500 a month. Plan to retire some year then I can really start getting into the scrap.

Dude is excluding the cost of the search. Lol. He's making minimum wage.

You'd figure it out easier in grams and kilograms 😜

That definitely had some goodies in it buddy awesome tear down buddy! Great video!

One idea. If you find a fence supply store or even Amazon check out a "wire grip" I used it for years stretching tension wire on fence. It would grab hold of those wire ends if you have something to anchor to you can use a come along cable jack and pull the long runs out. Just saying.

you can scrap microwaves, OR make a handy front door weapon

Where do you get all the microwave ovens? Just wondering.

Going to be actual 99 on tuesday hest index close to 110. South Jersey near philly.

If that's not a drinking fountain wonder what you call a bidet

Dont know vout u but im ready for that cooler weather here in van Buren Arkansas its 95 but feels like 103

It's chilli in england where I am

Looks like a fountain to me

First for me that's for sure. Good teardown video Denny

Dennis even though I’ve lived in Wisconsin for almost 25 years it’s still a drinking fountain. 😂

Bubbler.?

Grettings from Spain and congratulations for the great video...when you take the big spull of copper, the another piece of steel you forget a little copper pieces inside, i don,t know if you understand me, my english is bad sorry 😊

Little extra money in the pocket buddy it all adds up great video!

That definitely had some goodies buddy awesome tear down!

That dude was wild!! Nice pick up buddy that definitely will have some goodies in it!

15 pounds... what did you get? 'nother hour older and deeper in debt... st Peter don't you call me cos' I can't go! I owe my soul to copper sacraping fun!

As of July 8, 2024, the price of copper is $4.61 per pound so if you have about 2 pounds of copper per transformer and if you have 8 transformers you make maybe $73 cash. How much did you buy the microwaves for and how many hours did it take you to remove the copper spools? How much did you end up profiting per hour?

Nice one

Good job on the tear down brother.👍👍 Don't you wish you could really go that fast for that long?🤔🤔😂😂Looks like a pretty fair load.😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥

Hit on stuburn screws with hammer and it will los 3:03 ten them up most times

When scrapping any type of a transformer if you want to remove the slack to get a little bit better price slightly Heat over the top of a fire pit for a couple seconds the coding will eventually start to fall off a little slamming it on the concrete every now and then during the heating process doesn't hurt either doesn't always work but works some of the time sometimes it even works on motor coils too

Good video. Do u take out the sealed units too?

I was given a set of 13 of those units to scrap. That was a good day.

Heck yea

Great video. You must have the patience of a monk, because I would have been cussing and throwing things by the time I had trouble with the second screw!

Great teardown ! Thise things make for a good payday

Come on u gotta keep ur drill charged jk i forget too sometimes

Microwave heaters ac heck even vacuums there all fun and in great value

Heck yea
