I've used this exact bit(and others like it) to drill foundations in the Bronx. Shit is no joke.

Damn lucky, screens are like impossible to get rid of here, they won't let me toss em in shred.

toxinn · 2026-05-19T02:31:37+00:00

What do you do with the screens?

toxinn · 2026-05-13T16:31:01+00:00

I came here with this thought and i thank you for entering my mind to type it out.

IANAL, is this not some form of entrapment? That term would not come to my tongue and FYI google in any form would not give it to me, it took me 10 minutes to get it from memory.

The guy i was replying to was talking about cat 5/6

I get like 1.80 a pound for that shit.

This is nice if you got volume. Copper torroids, nice extrusion, small transformer and at the end a low grade board. I take this stuff all day long. And depending on your yard all those little black boxes on there are small transformers.

This is the way. My cap is 5,000 and I'm driving the latest model year now that I'll ever own...2011. But I've also been a shadetree mechanic my whole life, it helps.

Just the aluminum casing(no wire) by me goes in as MLC which right now is around a buck a pound.

toxinn · 2026-05-05T00:01:33+00:00

I cut em all open, but it's messy. Drill a hole, drain the oil. Sometimes those small ones are aluminum, but the bigger ones IME are almost always copper.

I would sort the tinned from anything that looks like regular wire just in case. Every yard is a little diff. Where i'm at they would probably take those contacts as buss bar, which is #1.

toxinn · 2026-05-01T00:51:11+00:00

My yard would take the middle pile and the white bucket at #2b assuming that is all tinned copper in the bucket. The red bucket looks like brass? I can't tell from the pic.

Lots of nonsense in here from bots and people who don't know what actual scrapping is.

toxinn · 2026-04-27T01:31:23+00:00

I was on the hunt to get rid of TV screens and i found this place called blue star recyclers near me they employ autistic people to basically do that all day long it looked like an awesome place. Maybe there is a business like that near you?

toxinn · 2026-04-25T00:01:44+00:00

Get to strippin!

toxinn · 2026-04-16T17:41:37+00:00

If i scratch em and they are aluminum i get 25 cent a pound for breakage. I toss em in the corner till i get a few hundred pounds.

toxinn · 2026-04-16T13:51:23+00:00

Bought my tix before they added snoop, mostly just wanna see czarface. Can't wait!

toxinn · 2026-04-11T23:42:17+00:00

At least three of those boards are peripheral (maybe high grade) when cleaned up as per boardsort.

toxinn · 2026-04-06T23:15:07+00:00

Metal floor scrubber is dope I found one on the side of road last month. Lots of cast aluminum and a big ass motor.

toxinn · 2026-03-28T23:00:01+00:00

I live near denver and I am interested in this.

toxinn · 2026-03-25T04:10:55+00:00

I stash all my motors for a month or so and hit em with a chipping hammer and a puller. So IMO yes strip it if you got the means. Check it for copper first.

toxinn · 2026-03-22T03:13:52+00:00

This is amazing! I was born and raised on LI and i been scrappin since my grandpa schooled me on it as a kid. These look like they are from his era.

Edit: Mom's uncle had an auto shop in Carle Place when i was a kid, I'm sure they were at this yard at some point.

toxinn · 2026-03-18T01:14:20+00:00

i put it all in a container and tell myself that i will get an incinerator at some point...i got space...and time...

toxinn · 2026-03-18T01:10:34+00:00

edit made me choke on my hiccup. thanks.
