[@garlicmustard]

WOW! That's a clean and tidy workshop. A clean and tidy workshop is a safe workshop.

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks 👍

[@iantuck6364]

The large yard I take a lot of this kind of copper to, would classify all that copper as number two because it's had oil in it. Your yard may be different so I would keep t in a separate container and ask them. I'm curious, so hopefully, you remember to update us on what they give you.

[@Freeisbetter86]

we will :) Thanks Ian

[@tghepburn1390]

Ditto for the big yards in Calgary but I did find one small dealer that just cared that it looked clean to take as No. 1

[@paulcoenen7918]

After cutting the aluminum with razor knife I was able to pull the rods out with a pliers, a shot of WD-40 made it much easier to pull the rods through.

[@SirSwanky-zd6el]

That's def copper #1. Don't listen to anyone else on that subject. It's perfectly clean and way way bigger than enough to be considered #1. Why would you tell a scrap yard it may or may not have had refrigerant in it at one point. It doesn't now. Don't sell yourself short on making money. They'd rip you off at the first chance they had. Definitely copper #1. It's all about melting it and there is no further cleaning needed to be done to make it pure copper

[@lincolnbates13]

Might be right size but still has al coating on cu. And it's darker. Not to mention a scrap yard will be able to tell it's cu from ac by the oil. Worked in buyback over 5 years scrapped my whole life ad well. No brainer I bought it as #2.

[@roosterman8911]

Keep makin videos, i love watching you to. My scrap yard pays so little its just not worth the time and effort, and ive tried driving to other recycle places but then the time and cost still isnt worth it, SO i built a furnace got some cast iron molds off ebay and i now melt down all my own scrap and pour it into molds of fish, roosters and deer and now im going to start selling those and see if i can do better in the cash department. Im a retired, disabled veteran so its more of a "something to do" rather than "i need food on the table"

[@roosterman8911]

After reading what i wrote i have to correct myself. I wasnt implying that you scrap to put food on your table i just ment that right now i melt as a hobby, and maybe someday soon i can make money at it

[@spencerboehrns5522]

I have also done this in the past. Run the blade down twice then run a flat head screw drive down for separation. Them pull out copper rods. Like any thing else what is your time worth. But regardless we learn by trial. Keep on keeping on!! :)

[@copperkingrecycling634]

Good job. Rads are difficult at best. Don't listen to the haters. By Hand, Rads can only be separated a few ways. Your doing it correctly....obviously. #1 - #2? Depends on the Yard. It looks like #1 but it has oil on it.

[@mbstoneseeker]

That’s amazing, I see folks cut the ends off. But I’ve never see anyone go after the tubes. Well done!👍🏻

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks 👍

[@austinhernandez2716]

I see copper, I'm cutting my way through! I'm gonna get it somehow! 😂

[@eruis3139]

Hi everyone, have a good weekend to all❤️💕💞

[@paulcoenen7918]

Great job. To speed up the first sits along the inside of the steel ends I used a Sawzall yesterday and with a metal cutting blade it literally cut like butter, about 20-30 seconds each side just with the weight of the saw, I didn't force it. Now I'm ready to try the rest of the cleanup, thanks for the ideas.

[@kelkel3201]

#1 on the copper tubing, remember its all about the melting process. That goes straight to the furnace because its free of other metal alloys or paint for example when burning! I don’t believe refrigerant that was removed would effect price at all! Put it aside as #1. Size doesn’t matter its copper bus tubing regardless! Don’t sell yourself short! Nice hoard!

[@federicogalvan686]

It's amazing something as small as a little copper can bring you such Joy this is why I love watching your videos keep doing what you doing sorry for the late comment I just now watch your video sir

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks 👍

[@MissCanadian]

I have like 50 rads to cut the ends off of one day soon lol

[@hectorz6421]

Where are you at I'll come pick them up

[@dennisbenstead8367]

Thank you for showing us on what you love to do 😊😊😊😊❤thank you and your family for doing videos

[@dennishinkle5010]

Cooper is 2 and aluminum is like cans radiators are always good if you can find them. The dream is alive.

[@ScrapMetalTV.]

Every little bit counts. The main thing is, you enjoy it..👍

[@Bambamsdad13]

hey i already do that and all the copper is # 2 because refrigerant has been ran through it. and the aluminum is sheet aluminum. but well worth the time. great job liked the safety first.....

[@Freeisbetter86]

👍 Thanks Kelly

[@etscrapping9923]

I get #1 and #2 from copper out if ac units at my yard.

[@brendamiller8140]

Good job young man, I've not saw anybody else do that and I have watched a lot. 👍👍👍😂😂❤️💙💜💚🤗

[@YouCoontsSeeMe]

Perfect day for scrapping.

[@Freeisbetter86]

👍

[@StephenMarks-wo4uk]

I used a hack saw and was impressed with my results , push the rods out , I do have a grinder with a cutting wheel , but I used a razor knife

[@hammer44100]

Keep on having fun

[@austindevaney2792]

So after you use the razor knife to cut along the line of the copper tubing, instead of using pliers to push down use a small hatchet 🪓 and hit lightly between the tubes and the aluminum will separate/tear off the tubes and u can literally pull em up one by one so much faster

[@ewastemike7700]

Also the copper is #2 due to it being from a ac unit. It is considered contamiated from the feon.

[@Freeisbetter86]

👍 Thanks Mike

[@jackpotdigger834]

ifit dosent have discoloration if its shinny should be good as number 1

[@jackpotdigger834]

i like the fact you make video all by yourself GOOD JOB

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks Jackpot !! 👍He Has More fun Doing It Now lol

[@gussuperman7565]

M8 cheers on your efforts to make extra cash. I've been scrapping for over 20 years, and I haven't seen anything l I keep that. You're being in Canada 🇨🇦 ay , your scrap yard may call it all #2 do to the oil inside the tubing. Rule to always remember , " the metal that you sell to the scrap yard will make them money, so it is up to you where you sell it for the best price." Keep up the good work . God bless y'all.

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks 👍 Gus

[@SilverScorpion]

Thanks for showing that. I had been wondering how to separate that!

[@Freeisbetter86]

No problem! Thanks For Watching 👍

At 08:25 , reminds me of the android's little knife game in Aliens 2 :)

[@erictruesdale3646]

You guys are super awesome and cas you are a inspiration to me. I have bi-polar disorder and I can't do anything that has to deal with alot of people because I feel smothered and overwhelmed and start to freak out and panic and i have missed on many things in my kids life's because of this. After watching your struggles and triumphs via your videos i have tryed to push myself just as you do and because of that due to you not giving up and keep going im proud to say I'm going to one of my sons wedding tomorrow and I have you thank for this strength that I have found inside of me that I thought I didn't have and for that I say thank you from the bottom of my heart you are my angel ♥ KEEP PUSHING FOR YOUR DREAMS NEVER GIVE UP you deserve nothing but the best in life.

[@Freeisbetter86]

That's Awesome to hear Eric !! We Are so glad that our video's can help anyone as they and the scrapping community have also helped us in so many ways :) So Thank You Also For being a great supporter it means a ton to us and have a great day at the wedding :) i know your son will be super proud !

[@veb6814]

Thats really cool thanks for the video!

[@shadowzedge5793]

Not sure on the grade as each yard is different. Can you show how to take apart the Cu/Al computer heatsink? I was hoping it was going to be shown in this video but I didn't see it.

[@BGTech1]

I would also like to see him do that.

[@ewastemike7700]

Well seems like alot of work, but i guess if you like to collect copper can't beat it. I guess if i had more time i might do it. Great video. :)

[@BGTech1]

Take out most of the copper tubes and then sell it as clean radiator

[@jasonqss2661]

Definitely #1 copper 🔥🔥🔥👏🏽👏🏽

[@grumpyolddwarf8953]

Solder is #2, no solder is #1

[@jamesfye5964]

One end of noodles and the copper piping without sodder is #1

[@eddiereyna2998]

I’m doing scraping for metal and on my two day run of picking up refrigerators, washers , dryers , freezers , fans , coffee makers , microwaves , tv’s , water dispensers, that all have copper and aluminum I made over 500 in two days worth of picking up free metal . I only used $16 of diesel for both days . My time to take it apart and also make money on the scrap metal is worth it . I also take my time and squeezing every nook and cranny in all of the items so I can pack my trailer to the gills . For example I’ll remove the electrical wires from a fridge & motherboards and then I fill the stove with a microwave that’s also full of metal . The least amount of unused space is the goal . Tis more then working for someone else and at my own hours . I’m gonna spend my money on a fence first so my city won’t bother me and a metal table with a vise . The comment about the sawzall is a great idea and so is the one where he only uses a screwdriver to cut the radiator.

[@ChrissyLarson]

If you don't have a grinder use a chisel, once you get used to it it take less than a minute to do each end on a central air rad. But I find it to be a waste of time taking copper out of the rad and you end up making almost the same amount of money

[@rjgoniea]

Some scrap yards wont take those Aluminum foils. Source: Me when my pile of radiator foils got rejected one time. You could go through the trouble of melting it down into an ingot or two, but aluminum scrap prices are so low right now it may not be worth the effort.

[@endfedinctaxonindividuals7486]

Use a small hatchet, with nice sharp edge. Not a big swing. Could always hit the back end with a hammer. Prob go faster than utility type of knife.

[@kdscrapping4452]

Nice job!!!

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks!

[@TheUltimateRecycler]

Good work Shawn. It would have been interesting to get a value before and after to see how much extra you made..

[@Freeisbetter86]

Great point!

[@JohnnySwedishScrapper]

woow thats are great info and video i do normaly get alot of heatsinks from comps, so ill gona test in later ;) awsome ;)

[@scottprather5645]

I'd use an angle grinder with a metal blade to cut the aluminum away from those copper tubes I think it would be much faster and more efficient

[@Natures_Intentions]

The compressor in air conditioner's also are full of copper windings.

[@etscrapping9923]

Air chisel works good and you just knock the steel right off the ends.

[@ricknelson9341]

You can tell you’ve never done this before. I do it similar. Just need a stronger/sturdy box cutter. And run a flat head down where you cut so the copper wants to come out. I really want melt the aluminum off the copper in a big fire. Just because the aluminum is so... light and close to not worth worth even storing/bringing to the yard Any body melt the aluminum off there copper rads?

[@Tommy-pe8ct]

New subscriber here👍🏻Great video

[@thomaspierce2072]

Rule of thumb if the copper is pencil lead size or bigger it is number one

[@Freeisbetter86]

👍 Thanks Thomas

[@johnnyspaceman1]

You are cutting the acr wrong..cut on the out side.and use a sawsall

[@garycollier385]

Hey guys another fun video thanks 👍 is possible to put a bin out the front of your shop as afree ewaste collection point for your community.

[@Freeisbetter86]

That's a great idea!

[@veritasfiles]

Great video!

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks!

[@madmattsbucketlist385]

Hi both, enjoyed the video. Depends on your scrapyard for the copper. If any liquid apart from water has gone through it, i would say no.2. Could try cleaning it. Would be interesting to hear what they grade it as. Just advanced warning, there's a 40 questions challenge going around. I got nominated & will be uploading tonight or tomorrow. Once completed the participant has to nominate 6 people, which is a bit much, so i've nominated yourselves. Hopefully it'll bring you to a wider audience. I'll forward the questions once uploaded. I'm always careful how much info I give away on KZbin. After that video i'll give you a proper shout out in my new video. From little acorns as they say. I was going to nominate k&D Scrapping, i really don't think he would've been very happy, do you? Anyway, speak soon in the next couple of days. Keep up the good videos. Thanks, Matt.

[@johnnyspaceman1]

I used to take everything apart trying to hey every last piece of copper out,now I pi k only the low hanging fruit off stuff...too much time, too many busted tools and it was doing a number on my hands .

[@mysterybuyer3738]

I used an electric reciprocating saw for the ends and it worked well. Now I need to figure out the rest of the pipes because my only local yard loves to rip me off and if I get the copper out I can sell it on ebay instead giving it to them as a copper aluminum radiator.

[@muriaticacid7004]

👍 Thanks

Just did a bunch of these the other day.

[@Freeisbetter86]

awesome 👍

[@glennromines5564]

My scrapyard would not take the aluminum fins after separation. Had to throw into steel. Copper was #2 because radiator fluid was used. Soldering or not made no difference...

[@gregboozer1478]

Great video 👍

[@Freeisbetter86]

Thanks 👍

The totally clean is number 1

Nice Encouraging Words at the end Bro.

[@conniekey1764]

If it’s clean copper it’s number 1

[@thomaspierce2072]

That copper tubing is number one copper

[@bobdavenport8992]

Oil makes it number 2

[@aussiesilverstacka513]

No it's #2

[@dianec9860]

because it has oil residue it is no. 2

[@canalreciclando2723]

Very good.

[@allenbaker7491]

The yards I take it to would be #2 because of the gas that has been through it

[@dalecaruso2052]

With today's copper prices I would get 15 Canadian dollars for 3 pounds of #1.

[@jackpotdigger834]

i tried many many timebut ended up with tomany scratch onmy harm...ended up giving up cant wait to see your technic on too the video yewww

[@westernwashingtonhistory1889]

good video, I would say I could barely stand to watch you use that flimsy razor. Those can break right off. A good utility blade is safest and stronger. Glad you didnt hurt yourself, although I am just starting the video so maybe you do.

[@leoncornett3037]

Use a sawsall also can you take your scrap to the USA

[@shaijusugathan3182]

Can you tell percentage of copper and aluminum in a radiator

I don't have a saw. I wonder if an electric turkey knife will work.. mmmmm

Its #1 copper bro i work at one

i just wear earwear, a visor and use an angle grinder... way easier and 100 times faster

Are u guys okay

[@fightme-pl6yk]

I'm getting a 1$ a pound for those aluminum copper rads. Just wondering if its worth it to strip them like you or to just clean the ends off and take them in as is?

[@alanwilliams2452]

I ll say #2 copper

[@robertbouwman3990]

Hou guys can also Dell or live me te copper brass and aluminium

[@davidlong5639]

You need see how much aluminum copper price is on them like the copper in them is light I try it before on what you did on this video 2 much time just not anaf money stay happy on

[@davidlong5639]

If u do aluminum copper rad snip rings off then take a snip or and flat head put it in the holes go do the line pry it off it works because I do this myself I'm thinking it be up there 200dollars a pound or more down here Cincinnati Ohio 95 cent a pound

[@jhonncueto245]

Unfortunately its number 2 because of the oil

[@thiamjoo]

Extending your cutter blade out so much is dangerous. It could easily snap. Just half an inch out is good enough.

[@mikethedeerman]

#1

[@MrsMorrisReads]

Love your videos. But it should be *too bad. Sorry. That’s the teacher coming out in me.

[@scrapman502]

Using a cheap plastic box cutter with a breakaway blade is not recommended for this procedure. Get a nice steel handled box cutter witha retractable single blade. Less chance of blade breaking off and cutting yourself.

[@theman37251]

Way to time consuming.
