One heck of an answer for most asked question. Thank You. Allways regrect when leaving one behind... in Poland got more tools than just a dremel and it is not a lot cutting dis usage if You know how to cut metal. But still.. . Its not easy money. Mostly not worth it. Thank You.
If only effort is paid! I agree that £3 might not be enough with all that effort in dividing the compressor. I'd sell that whole to the junk shop since I'm not patient enough to do that 😆🤭 I admire your patience, though, in doing so
I think you are right. That was quite a lot of work for only a small profit. By the time you take out your cost of tools, I’m sure it’s probably not worth your time. Interesting to see what’s inside though! ❤
A shame it was slightly time consuming and all you get was a little over £3! But if you come into stuff like this a lot then you can just save all the parts and build a stash that’s worth cashing in!
All you need IS a plazma cutter.and open IT in 1 minit. I am saving for plazma cuter.and i allrady have saved 10 kompresor for my self.i want to get ať least 40 more compresors
that is what i use. 30 seconds and they are open up and that is using old worn tips that are no longer good for getting straight edge cuts. Who cares what the cut edge looks like on scrap. I open them up in groups or whenever I get the plasma out for some other jobs, i will do a batch that is sitting around. it depends on how much you get in your area for each classification and how fast you can separate it. here they pay jack for them whole and I am fast at getting them apart so i cut them all up and save them for whenever the price is up. my biggest stash of copper I saved was a little over 3,000 pounds waiting for the price to go up.
@@madeingreatbritainchannel yeah I know they have different prices different yards. But I was seeing how much you would get if you took it in whole compared to stripping it
You DO have a hundred of them to do- you just haven't got the others yet. Try doing 50 in an afternoon and you'll soon be sick of it, one at a time as you get them can be fit in anytime of the day at your leisure. Scrapping copper is a waiting game- never cash copper in in dribs and drabs, save it for a big payday otherwise you'll never have anything to show for it. Just under a year has my hoard at around 90kg no.1 stripped wire, 45kg no.2 wire (mostly windings) and roughly 40 kg copper pipe with brass I haven't seperated or cleaned yet. I'm planning on a tonne before cashing in. Here (South Australia) no.1 is at best up to AU$12 a kg while no.2 might be a dollar or so less. I splashed out on an enerpat multi cutter motorised wire stripper, but now realise there's a lot of wire too fine to strip and am looking into building a granulator. Good luck scrounging!
I always save it up, my last load was last Christmas was £1600. I only pick up between jobs, so have no expenses. I have 15 compressors waiting I will use the plasma cutter when I get a load of them.
Not worth the time. Ok if you are pottering about in a shed all day. But you can go round streets picking up more scrap and drop off for more money in time this takes.
He made more money doing this than you did watching. Time wasted is time wasted. If a person enjoys doing something and makes a buck or 2 it's time well spend no matter how long it take or how little the pay..cheers to all
@@madeingreatbritainchannel the disc is use for cutting a tiles and not for metal. use a metal cutting disc its like a thin disc like a sand paper type. you can also use that for cutting the copper wire.
