How to easily and effectively take apart armatures for copper.

Hello scrappers and planet lovers. In this video, I will show you how to take apart an armature for a great score of copper and zero waste. I have had some people comment that they pass up vacuum cleaners now because the field windings are aluminum. However, the great thing about armatures is that they are always copper. I will show you how to easily and effectively identify and separate the metals in order to help maximize your profit and divert this entire piece from the landfill.
Here is the link to scrapping copper motors:

Lag bolts, lock washers, and nuts. Game over. Lots of work but good job Tinny !

That is a GREAT THING to thank your dad. I'm glad that I have invested in a Stripmeister e250 for the extention wire, not just for the !#1 but also for the #2 wire extention cord wire. Yes, I bless the Kanook bastage who made that creation.
Kid, keep on the scrapping!!
Blessings from a state once called California now Sodomfornia, where in a state that everyone gets screwed!

What a timely video! I have a bucket full of these, and I have sold them as motors in the past. I will change it up and follow your Dad's Dad!

Another awesome video, Tin Man! A HUGE THANK YOU to both you and your father for not only finding the secret to dissecting the armatures, but sharing it! Keep up the great work! Can't wait until I find my next motor so I can take it apart!

[Solarbeez]

I hate to throw things away. Your video shows me how to save at least something of value before it goes to the county dump. Thanks so much for taking the time to video the details.

[bormatnor]

Thanks for your video, I always learn something from you. I don't like to be wasteful when it comes to copper.

[streetthrifter]

You have shown me a technique I have never seen before. 💣🔥

Thank you very much. I'm going to share this with my son. Good stuff. I've been usually just throwing them in the shred bin but not anymore. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦

Hello TinMan, , Sweden here again and scrapping still rocks.
That was a neat little trick, I have to try it as I have a bunch of them in the garage. I no longer cut open sealed units, just drill a hole and drain the oil and get electric motor price and that is good enough as they are heavy. Sometimes I get 25-30 of them in a month.
Scrapyards here also doesnt take burnt copper wire, unless it's from a house fire or burnt car, , the yard checks it up.
