Dude knows his stuff . Clear concise explanations. I really need to get back into scrapping. It’s addictive. All you see is metal everywhere you go…radar is always up

I Love this channel! You really help us keeping our scrap yards honest. We really need more people that help us like you!

[richsmith]

I have been watching a number of scrapping videos lately. I now have a truck and retirement has given lots of free time. I just wanted to say that your video is the BEST video so far. I learned more from you than all the other people I’ve watched. Your presentation was clear and easy to follow. Thanks

Cool, clean and very well organized Tom. It would be great to have a yard like yours nearby.

Tell your wife happy mothers day. Like your videos 📹 keep up the good work

Thanks Tom, Very informative and helps me sort my product better. Thing to remember is that like the yard I go to, the manager has put me on a quality list as I am trying to give them better value product, so there staff know that I am not trying to rip them off. Recycping product is a 2 way street and it is good to know that the recycle shop we go to will look after us better financially because we try to look after them by sorting the product correctly.

This was a very enjoyable video and informative too. This video just got me more motivated to go scraping more!!! You should do more videos like these. You should maybe do a tour of what ferrous metals you take.that would be a wonderful video as well.

I commend you on your center. I also had the idea of educational posters for my center. You have taken it further with TV. I'm a believer that educated customers make better customers.

Some older transformers will fracture at welds when you strike them just right. I use a cold chisel, but I've seen a guy repurpose a hatchet for it.

Good lord your scrap warehouse and office, and am willing to bet your yard, are so nice, clean and well kept looking. Id feel confident walking into your establishment.

Thanks Tom for the thoutful education In ways scrapers can get better prices for their labour. I have been coming to your business for many years but have much more to learn. Please keep producing more videos. The price of gas lately has been challenging. Best wishes.😛

Great video my scrap yard acts like everything is top secret don't want to explain any of this to you

[SegoMan]

The last scrap run I did they had some partial sheets of 1/4" A-36 they wanted more for them than I pay to have full sheets delivered (even thought they probably only paid pennies a pound for them) LoL

[dalesmith]

Great video that was very explanatory I learned a few things thank you

I would strongly suggest checking with whoever is buying your hard drives if you sell them as hard drives. by taking off the board you may actually lose money as hard drives without the board are much less valuable than just crating them up and leaving them on. I will be doing an actual test soon to see if any money is made or lost. but generally, I would suggest leaving them on unless you are planning on destroying the drive or have already established that you make more money that way
