A DAY IN THE LIFE OF AN EWASTE RECYCLER / SCRAPPER. what it takes to get material for videos 

My friend we have gone back and forth on using ap to dissolve pins. I don't bother pulling them from the plastic now. But good news is you know that hard puck you get in ap? That when you filter your ap off tand catch whatever golds there you can dissolve that puck in warm water in moments. Put the AP back on and start over.

A good video explaining and showing that there's a lot more that goes into getting the material to process than some people realize. I started out taking pretty much everything off of the boards, but as I am learning from others I have started to get more selective on what I take. Unfortunately there's just not enough time to go after everything. But on the plus side, I can go through more boards in a shorter amount of time which means I can build up the amount of what I'll attempt to process quicker (ic chips, bga's, gold corner bga's, fingers, etc). Looking forward to seeing your next video!

Sir thx for the video, i remember you do not need to cut of the metal from the chips with a pliers, just rub them to either side a couple of times with your finger and they break off easily. You save a lot of time and pliers. Let me know if it worked..it should. Greetings

I think most who watch the videos also like to scrap. I have several computer repair shops that give me the junk computers. But when micro scrapping nobody wants to watch me spend weeks stripping down computer fan motors for a tiny bit of copper. But I do it. And strip the copper from the wires in the power supply. I am relatively new to gold recovery. I go after the cheap stuff to learn while saving up the good stuff. I don't expect more than 1/4 gram per kilo on the transistors I am crushing now. But I had about 4 kilos and my can was full. I got almost no silver but should get a tiny bit of gold. I have pounds of ic chips same for ram. Gold corner bag are adding up. I want to get the process down pat on the cheap stuff before risking mistakes on the better stuff.

My scrap yard pays .10 a pound for stripped green boards. If I leave a bit on the mother boards I get $1 a pound.

Can you film a video showing your heat gun depopulating the boards? I have a hear gun, it has 900 & 1500 degrees, but even at 1500 degrees it takes forever to depopulate just 1 board. Perhaps it's my hear gun, but sheesh!

in Rotterdam they give €2.50/kg for modern mother-boards (populated), not much on them any-ways ...
