Scrapping out the Garage 

Well, mate. Just an old texan that loves watching you go about your life. Great to know that no matter where you live, people are doing what they can and must to live. Great to see someone in love with his life work.

Nothing better than Sunday morning coffee and some scrapping with Ben. Sorry you're grounded again. I suspect this nasty is not done with us for a while. Good luck getting through the rest of the garage. Looking forward to your progress. Be safe my friend.

Another good film keep scrapping

Love the videos Ben keep them coming very educational and I just love the way you do them

Kentuckians here, just found you, my husband started e waste scrapping to have some light work until he gets heart stents in the fall. Loved your video

Thanks for the Entertainment Ben. The place is looking good and great to see the poopers out and about. Hoping you can hit the streets real soon but do keep us posted on the garage and love the scrap sessions. Enjoyed 👍👍

Hang in there Ben! Lock down is the pits. Glad you're still putting out vids! Thank you!

Oh my goodness those heat sinks 🧡👀 Loved this Ben, you are powering through it, I can see why you love those blades!!

That sucks about the lock down. Love the street scrapping videos. On a side note, I really enjoy the long videos I have learned alot and might start scrapping on a small scale just because of you and some others. Thanks. I also like the start to finish videos. From the street pick up to the scrap yard.

Those blades sure look pretty fun to scrap out!! Nice Ben 👍😁

Still strong ,love it,hope you get your farm soon

Nice scrap Ben, really enjoyed it 👍

Those blades are really nice! Have a Great Day My Friend!

Great Video Ben Keep Bringing The Video's Dude God Bless You And Your Family 👍👍

I love the style of this video. Scrap some of one item and edit in the next item. Keep up the great videos and good luck with your street scrapping. Hopefully they lift the restrictions

Damn, those IBM blade servers are beautiful. The folks who designed them must take real pride in their work.

Hi, perfect timing for the lazy Sunday afternoon in Europe 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Regarding the gold plated pins - no need to trim them. Don’t waste your time. You can directly strip the gold plating with eco goldex or other gold stripping agent. 👍

I'm glad you've shown how quick and easy it is to scrap out the IP phones, even though I've shown the goodies people say they are not worth it, some makes definitely are and 30seconds work for a mid grade board is never a bad thing! 👍

Every thing is looking good this time you may get the garage clean two thumbs my friend

Awesome progress youre making ben thats a little benifit of the lockdown

Great video

how i scrap speakers: reuse them in home projects when im bored haha. my main sound system in my room is exactly that my man. recycled electronics and my sound system is actually decent ay. if i could, id leave WA, come to melbourne and pick up a bin full of speakers off you if i was able to. but nope, covid is f***** us all over again. stay safe mate. happy new years

Thanks Ben, keep posting videos

love it

Hi I woch your videos everyday I love you guys I love the video

Good lockdown content

good vid keep up the goodvids stay safe lee

The lacquer on the boards is called conformal coating. It is to prevent corrosion in high moisture environments when condensation is possible on the board.

6:00 That's conformal coating. It protects the board and components against liquid, dust and corrosion

the boards on the hard drives from the blades can be removed because the boards just program the hard drive it's the plates inside that hold the information

I think the domestic aluminum pricing boost might be linked to the global environmental initiative many countries have signed into. Essentially the participating countries have pledged to minimize importation of rare metals due to the high carbon footprint of shipping, in favor of focusing on the internal resource economy. Broad strokes, and I may be wrong on more than a couple of the details, but i wouldn't be surprised if it was connected.

👍😀👍

I live in the United States and we were locked down for the longest time and you weren't don't apologize for something you can't do anything about I love watching your shows I don't care what you do tearing stuff apart cutting off wires it's all good just don't stop let's do a marathon what do you think love that Australian accent

It was fun Ben

Hey mate how you doing Ben great idea you had mate

thought i would come over and play 24 hr ben videos for the live stream Tip K&D that was awesome M8!

Hello sir , I’ll will Ike to thank you 🙏 so much for all the hard work you do 2 years before all this started two years ago ! My computer scrap pickup by 80% where I even lost some of my long time lots but how do you get them back and keep your schedule organize ? Thank you Ben ! I’m down south from shark scraper

That's a good deal to strip stuff out but then you end up with a lot of screws, and usually all over the place too, that was my problem, course I generally had a bin to throw the screws in but you still had some that ended up on the ground or what have you and then end up getting a damn screw in a tire, course you always take that chance going into a scrapyard, any scrapyard, picking up a screw or two in a truck tire or trailer tire. But I pretty much always carried a tire plugging kit with me, you know?! Man, I really do miss scrapping, I miss the money but the work too, it was usually good exercise, especially street scrapping or neighborhood scrapping i should say. But here in the states, instead of the garbage truck picking up just every so often, they ran every week.

hy BEN😎 from Philippines...

thanks man

you have a vise. clamp a shear in it ie garden. then you save you hands. because you don't have to squeeze your hands

I see your copping the relentless rain aswell.

Hi Ben. How are you doing today? Fine I hope. Another great video. Please stay safe and sound and take care of yourself and your family. Talk to you later my friend. ☺☺☺😇😇😇❤❤❤❤❤💕💕💕. And a big hello to eWaste in Europe.

I used to micro scrap the hard drives for the aluminum base very fiddly. If you can sell them as is good for you

At least you've something (plenty) to do during lockdown .......with a payout at the end as well. Take care and stay safe

I wonder how I'd handle all the different board classification. We have three yards. Only one takes PCBs @ $.15 a pound, TV boards, server boards a like.

Lacquer is ca.lled conformal coating and is used as moisture protection

Man I hoard something from time to time but never thought I would need to hoard cause I'm on lock down

Mhmm, I love that copper.

For domestic Al you have standards for what you can mix in with the Al becuase it needs to be food safe, for cast Al there is no standard so you get less and less Al with more and more other junk in the mix.

The UK came out of lockdown on 19/07/21 all shops, pubs, and other companies have been reopened

Cast Aluminium and casting metals in particular like cast iron contain high quantities of silicon, silicon gives fuidity to metals and makes it cast well, as the casting industry is in decline so is scrap with high silicon contents.

I wonder when you gone make gold bars from all those gold pins and everything . I wonder if i ever will see that in my life time

Odd question, have you ever considered recovering the hdd neodinium magnets to sell on ebay? Also if that military electrical testing equipment pops out of a corner of the shed or under a pile of stuff I am always here, always interested, always watching 😁🤣

If you are looking for away to help the environment you can use ecosia they are a search engine that plants trees

Is it worth taking off the little gold pins part from all of those hard drives or that plating is not so good?

Random but do you keep all the screw I've got a habit of keeping the screws of everything I dismantle 🤣

You see the finish line !

For this plastic trays get a small suction cup

My guess is there will be a time in the near future where we all say "remember the lock downs, those were the good old days where we still have a facade of freedom"

With a air compressor you could take that plastic quite easily from the cast

HI, over the boarder Mexican.. yep it's me.....

I don't think it's necessarily about it going away, it's more about making sure the population has a chance to get vaccinated before relaxing the rules. If you're going to lockdown, you need to be persistent, otherwise all the previous expensive lockdowns will have been for nothing.

There are probably more impurities in the cast ally. I'm guessing zinc.

You should have let us know how many 16 gig ram sticks you got before you ended Ben

Hoping for coppah!

How in the heck do you get some much scrap my husband scraps but never finds what you find.

At my yard domestic alu is worth the same for dissi(domialu) Extruded tho is double price

Scrap Scrap when the prices are high Get that trailer.

Have you considered removing rare earth metals found in computer hard drive magnets? If so, have you found it too time consuming and/or are the magnets worth much in the scrap market making it a worthwhile endeavor?

we have faith that you can do it BEN ?

Conformal coating

Hi mate what do you do with your laptop batteries I would love to buy your 18650 batteries thanks luke

Sari able frequency drive

Have you considered selling the parts back to the manufacturer? Heat sinks, knockout plugs etc. ?

Hey, I was wondering how to get started scrapping? Could you please give me some help?

Tell me the price of SMD capaciator yellow and black

GOOD CHOICE BEN WE ARE PROUD OF YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Hi mate do you ever scrap out the gold? What part of Australia are you from? Melbourne?

Surely you can clean out your garage within a week? =p

components are lacquered so the robotic arms suction cup can get a good grip when running at high speed when they insert the component into the circuit board

Muy mal video. Me gusta la recolección urbana ! ! 🇦🇷✌️🇦🇷✌️🇦🇷

Hey Ben!! I am looking for ceramic cpu scrap for gold recovery.. do you sell them?

I am buyer of vitange scrap man

i am really wonder how much money do it from this.

Mate in Sydney my area is on at the moment and I recognized the majority of scrappers in their vans and trucks some of whom have come from at least 15km away. Besides i can't see how you get the rona from scrapping anyway.

Retro pc group

What country are you from

Heatsinks like that must be coppa, brass sux badly at heat conductivity. Almost as bad as steel.

Same here with the price of aluminum. Don't get it

i hope the payoff is worth all this tedious work.

How much money do you get for each motherboard

HAVE 1 ON ME AND SEND ME AN IOU ?

Scrap marathon???

Rip sydney

Those in authority locking YOU down are not restricted or inconvenienced at ALL. They live life like you should be.

Hi mate I know you
