A nice bit of speed scrapping there , when that first printer hit the garbage can / bin thingy i almost fell of my chair laughing as i was not expecting it at all so thanks that brightened up my day keep the videos coming .............................. Thumbs Up
Ha ha. 👍😀 15 minutes ?? Hammer Time. 🙂 This is definitely faster than my method and was enjoyed.😉 I took two printers apart yesterday and it took at least an hour an a half. Recovered bits: Scanner head with exposed gold Circuit boards with gold Drive motors High strength metal rods ....more. Ar first, I thought you were going to drop them from the fifth floor and pick up the bits that came out. 😉😀
I'm surprised you are not removing the scanner heads out of the printers. There are gold bond wires in them. They are easily removed as well, just break the top glass and reach in and grab the bar. Sometimes the chip in them is not even covered with epoxy. You can easily recover the gold with a small razor blade.
YES. The BEST part of these scanners. Always looking for them. Collecting as many of these as possible. There is also exposed chips/gold on some. Pure gold. Plan is to scrape it off of the board, melt and pour. Hope to make a vid of it all.
what about the stepper motors driver steal rods wire ?18 stepper motors 20 reader eyes and 9 control boards I still print also some printers with the 5 colours are icing printers for always check what it say on the inks like food grade cake icing printers are worth saving also the big one that you could refile yourself lol i forgot 9 transformers
Hey Ralph, new sub here in 🇬🇧, what part of the world are you? Not much value in printers them lol, this is why I never pic them up it would cost more getting rid of the plastic than you would make from the gold out of it. This is also why I stopped scrapping CRT TV’s to much plastic and glass to worry about.
Hello and welcome to the madhouse! I am in luck to live in an appartement building with a large dumpster room under it, so I can dump whatever I can't get rid of. So I do like CRT tvs, but not printers, they usually come with bigger pickups. Thanks for watching and commenting 👊👍
