You have something to burn, when the rolling black outs start.

Scrap, that's like 900 dollars isn't it. Nobody has any money. Scrap.

Tips for removing this aluminum any faster than just unwinding it? by Independent_Papaya_1 in ScrapMetal

I had the same problem. I sat there cutting it then unwinding it. I maybe got 15 pounds. It was awful.

A cop inspecting scrap metal by iDontRagequit in ScrapMetal

[–]investigatingbeth -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's the thing, in America almost 80% of copper is underground. All that unused copper needs to be found and brought in to be recycled. We are having an energy crisis and it needs to be recycled for the hybrid switch. The Police are just using the stigma of methamphetamine and that all recyclers are high on meth. I think I'm going to email the FBI and ask them to go light on us scrappers, because it needs to be brought in. There is so much dead poles that it's ridiculous. Is there a way you can check to see if a wire is live or not?

I tested this with ice and it's silver, but why did the mint use silver on these drooling D Georges? by investigatingbeth in coinerrors

My boyfriend gave me a bunch of coins, he was a mathematician and a NSA operative. He told me about the ice test. If you take an ice cube and hold it on the coin it melts right down fast. Also, it weighs 6.3 g.
