Copper Wire Separation (Do It Yourself) Burnt Plugs Part 2

[@ChatterontheWire]

Thanks for it in pounds for us odd folks out there still using that measurement! Nice chunk of copper there for sure! Good luck with the last of the filtering!

[@corsagafa]

Hello, I can remember using pounds and ounces , yards,feet and inches here in England but the metric system is far simpler to use.Iam still thinking how to refine it further so its possible there maybe a part 3 in the future? Thankyou for your comment.

[@ChatterontheWire]

@@corsagafa I've wanted us to change to metric for 30 years now! Move the decimal point and go from mm, cm, m, km, etc just makes sense, but we're stubborn or something! :)

Good to see you back good vid who to sell your copper too you should get a lot better money than selling to scrap yards

[@corsagafa]

Hello Seamus,I have enjoyed the challenge of making part1 and part 2 maybe there will be a part 3? I go to a big scrap yard that other smaller scrap yards sell to,they have there own granulators plus they make there own ingots so They give a good price,although I still phone round to check the prices.Thankyou for your comment.

1st Thanks for this , ive been saving looms up . Cheers take it easy.

[@corsagafa]

Thankyou for your comment.

Nice! Thanks for the lbs!

[@desguacesmiranda]

Necesitas mas filtros no mezclarlo sin charcos de caída de material para que no se meta plásticos mas potencia de aire en cámara cerrada aspirador por encima eso es dos veces

Thanks for sharing this with us, Paul from Brazil.

Hello Paul,thankyou for your kind comment

Now that little bit of noise is music to my ears.. when you say circuit boards, what grade of board are you grinding? Do you have a video of what they look like or could you show what a couple of them look like. Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming.

[@corsagafa]

Hello,this video is part 2,have a look at part 1 to see the circuit boards kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYqbfX2lp7GBoZY thanks for your comment

I aspire to this level. Great videos im just getting ideas at the moment Regards scrapyard mark (uk).

[@corsagafa]

Hello Mark,if you have a go then good luck,your steam roller is awesome!

@@corsagafa thank you

[@boywonder6659]

Great video. Please could you let me know who do you sell your copper to? Thanks

[@adammulcahy644]

Would you by any chance have drawings or even a basic layout sketched for something like this? I’m really interested in making my own dry separator and recycling copper but I honestly can not seem to find a single thing online about the air/gravity screening process.

[@corsagafa]

Hello Adam,my vibrating screen is still under development so I dont think its a good idea to copy it just yet. The main reason I have shown it in my videos is to show how much development it takes to perfect a separation system.Yes your right,there is not much info on dry systems but if you are dedicated enough and watch enough videos of dry systems,you will learn how they work.For me,with the material that I process(thickness of wire from 0.1mm to 3mm) all in the same batch,Iam pretty sure that I will never be able to just use dry separation and that I will always need to use the water separation in conjunction with the vibrating screen.Hope this helps and you are more than welcome to ask as many questions as you want.

[@adammulcahy644]

Youre a gentleman for your reply, doesn’t seem to be too many willing to advise and help other people who are interested in this. With copper prices the way they are now though it’s of no surprise. What’s the current price per kg in the uk or your locality at the minute?

[@corsagafa]

@@adammulcahy644 Yes its mostly companies promoting there products that are making videos but if you are dedicated enough and watch as many videos as possible,you can learn how different systems work.Here in England copper is high, around £6.50 a kilo ,maybe it could go even higher with all the electrification of cars and energy?

[@akdenyer]

Hi there, where do you get all the car looms from? Are you a scrap yard or buying in old cars?

[@corsagafa]

Hello Allister,I do car transport which somtimes involves weighing them in,so I get the chance of taking the copper out of the shells before they are scraped.Thanks for your comment.

[@pespesa100]

Hi Mate, I am intending to scrap copper mainly from car harness(Car wiring looms). I was wondering if you have done these kinds of wires before and how much was the recovery ratio.

[@corsagafa]

Hello,yes I mostly do car looms and the yield is around 72% and that is after the plugs and tape have been removed,thanks for your comment.

[@kentieber7309]

thats a nice compact setup. im wondering what you used as your vibratory mechanism?

[@corsagafa]

Hello,it has a vibrating table bought from ebay.

[@jefferythornton1783]

How long didn't you take to make it and it looks like work in progress but I thing THEIR'S alota people looking into this a side income 4 older people!!!@

[@corsagafa]

Hello Jeffery,it started over ten years ago with the first water system and yes it is still and always will be a work in progress.For me the interesting part is trying different ideas on how to improve it.Thanks for your comment.

[@ScrappingwithGrandpa]

I want to see how you grind it

[@corsagafa]

Hello,this video is part 2, have a look at part 1 to see me granulating kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYqbfX2lp7GBoZY and I have got more videos on my channel,good luck with your scrapping and your channel.

Hallo Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland Ich würde gern die maschien auch bauen kannst du mir helfen LG

[@chrisbevan6390]

seems a real shame to blend it

[@corsagafa]

Hi Chris,no its not a problem,Iam just mixing it with a normal batch of copper wire granules so when I come to sell it, I will be sure there wont be a problem with the quality.
