Hi I am in London and just started scrapping, 10 months age, i am also a demo man, would like to work together some time any time your working in west I would like to find out about ewaste aswell thank you karim
Um.... Pencils have graphite dude. Not lead. That aside, I have a block. About as big as a brick, weighs 15 to 20 lb, is non-magnetic, and is extremely dense and hard. When I grind it white Sparks come off. Any idea what it is? cuz I'm at a total loss.
May actually keep some if not all the ingots i cast of al u mini um zinc die cast then my nronze n brass of diff types because it comes from.shit that can be brokem imto pieces that when all separate seem lighter than they actually are so as one ingot all the weight on one point
You're the only english derived accent person doing this stuff that i can handle n dont think yeah well cone take a look at this n they'd be baffled by my life scrapping on my free tine
Is there value Ben if you sell the hard drive as a whole? Can you sell this to your e scrapping yard? Would you get a decent amount selling then in bulk on eBay if you came across these quite a lot?
Hey Ben, very interesting video this one. When taking them to scrap is it vital to have them divided into the right categories? I’m not fully clued up on computers but do stop them and have been keeping the ram separate but mixing up the rest. Would it be easier to just have brown/green boards kept together and then green/green boards separate. Never took mine in for scrap so when I plan too I don’t want to be angering whoever buys them because I haven’t divided them up correctly. Cheers mate
I have the biggest problem with telling diff in Tin and Aluminum, was hoping you would show that, there is a big difference in price and most scrap I find is after big storms digging it out of the woods and I have worked hard only to find out later it was tin and not aluminum. Thanks for the scratch test tho that helps me rule out whether it is aluminum or not at least and that is what I really wanted
Pure tin is heavier than aluminum and noticeably darker in color. The situation you described makes sense -- Aluminum will corrode if damp, in salty type soils, or alkali (concrete). Tin is resistant in those same conditions.
@@benny5190 yes same here looks way too dangerous! Does your scrap yard take them? I'm asking because I've been saving RAM fingers and processors for the gold.
I have a precious metal refinery close by that buys all boards, my yard does buy them but at quarter of the price so the yard gets all the lowest grade boards that stake up quickly and not worth the hassle
I'm not a scrapper but this video helped me improve quality of life. I have a better understanding of how the metals in products i buy should affect prize and quality. Thanks!
Great video. I think I'll be selling my RAM etc on ebay in future. Some amazing info. I did not know you could get those prices. Brilliant. I mainly scrap copper, brass etc but I do get e waste occasionally. I'm new to Youtubing but not scrapping. You've got a heap of subscribers but we can't have too many. Liked and subbed.
I immediately lost all interest in continuing watching the video when he used sneaker clad feet to hold the sealed unit steady(ish) while using the wrong disc to cut it open. This man has nothing to teach anyone except good ways to setup future toe loss.
