I personally don’t like scrapping them for the risk of it having an aluminum windings motor inside. Unfortunately the only way to know for sure is busting it open 🙂
My stripping machine 😁 Here is a link to the one I use. www.amazon.com/Happybuy-Stripping-1-5mm-25mm-Channels-Industrial/dp/B071XSQTY4/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_sspa?crid=D109NGRDU87H&keywords=wire+stripper+machine&qid=1669564439&sprefix=wire+stri%2Caps%2C182&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExU1Y5OEYzRkdNQzJGJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMzUzMzQ2MVBQVUc3QVhWV0FQMyZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNDU0Njc5RFJFSDFUNEdZWDAyJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfcGhvbmVfc2VhcmNoX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=
Motors are made from aluminium... it's a shame! Vacuum designers don't think about us, scrappers who prefer find copper in them😅 Nice job n ty for sharing
@@Scrap2Cast the motor, the part that has the windings you found to be aluminum had a core which tirns the moving parts of the vaccum. It has ball bearings on both ends of it. Continue breaking down the motor and you will find it
Oh okay I know exactly what you mean now. I still save those off camera. When I get the big furnace setup after hitting my 500 subs goal (234 to go), I’ll melt the copper off the cores.
@@Scrap2Cast your narrative along with how and what you film is the reason I subscribe. Melting really is an interesting hobby. The fact that you can turn a junky old vacuum cleaner into a precious copper ingot or you can make a solid aluminum figure from $1.35 worth of aluminum scrap really is fascinating. The subscribers are out there. They need only to look your way!
@@mattyal9347 Thanks man, I really appreciate your positive input. It's nice to know that someone appreciates the way I conduct the channel / footage. Out of curiosity, do you like the caption narrative better or the voice narrative?
