    Glad you are making these videos, and there is great info here, but it's really annoying when you do the actual work in front of your body and we're looking at the back of your arm or shoulder. Why not put the camera on the other side of the workbench so you don't have to keep turning around, making us all dizzy. Plus then we can actually see what you are doing. Do you ever watch your videos?

    I don’t find them worth the time or effort they require to properly separate the material, however, I will give them only 10 minutes removing the clean aluminum pieces you separated.. the rest goes to shred after that..at least it still gets recycled properly, and is not in the landfill 😎👍🏻

    • @TinManScrapper

      Yup, totally agree. I have gotten a lot more conscious of how much time vs payout I spend on an item. If not, I would have a huge backlog of items to get through. As you said, at least diverted from the landfill.

    For the small time scrapper who doesn’t come across big piles of wire..doesn’t frequent construction or demo sites, and who doesn’t commit acts of blatant theft - little things like power supplies are like gold. Things like this/aluminum cans, etc..I let them rack up for the better part of a year or more, I don’t do this for a living so it’s well worth it to let it all rack up, ‘s a nice payday at the end of the year, ‘s like free money in my eyes. That said, someone who has regular access to bigger ticket scrap pieces may not think it worth their time to fiddle with these things as it does take some time to rack up an amount worth taking in..to me/in my area at least (I certainly don’t get anywhere near $4+ per lb of copper lol).

That plus you kept referring to things as steel....when all the yards I've dealt with would say it's tin. If it's thin, it's tin...if it's thick then it's steel is my rule of thumb.
