Greg Zanis - Scraping Apart A Big Projection TV

[@bessarion1771]

soooo, he is wearing a hard hat with ZERO overhead hazards, BUT, no steel toed boots (sledge hammer hazard), no work gloves (broken glass/metal/screws sharp edges), and no safety glasses (glass and wood shrapnel). What a BRILLIANT guy he is. Unbelievable.

[@biffskills4842]

I was thinking the same thing. PPE is key. Scrap safely.

[@bessarion1771]

@@biffskills4842 Or, at least PPE that makes sense.

[@sand0077]

For a person such as myself that would attempt fixing rather than destroying, this is difficult to watch :(

[@midnightstoker4_0]

Omg dude I'm with you I just saved two I think the guy wanted the lens to make a fkn torch or some shit to melt metal

[@pandagloves]

doesn't fully know what he is doing... but he is having so much fun. looks happy. and it is still informational. :) thumbs up

[@andreweliason713]

Destroyed all the components that hackers would want. Paid no attention to the giant fresnel lens.

[@frankw8876]

Painful to watch all that destruction even on a dead TV. Do discharge the capacitor(s) first.

[@jaydawg7820]

watching non discharged capacitor removal may have been worth watching ...

[@midnightstoker4_0]

But do we know it was dead

[@midnightstoker4_0]

Atill could bw repair what could you really not repair on that set by taking itbout an outting new if not being able to solder

[@Sunscribes]

JESUS! Absolutely destroying that BEAUTIFUL Fresnel lens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@midnightstoker4_0]

Ikr i just learned about what they are capable of doing he must not know or does not care because im sure people would buy one of these

Me (loving vintage technology and salvaging) yelling at my screen as this guy goes to town with a sledge hammer on all the components and speakers. “I’m lookin’ for the copper”. Lol

Dude that was a beautiful unit, i could never destroy something with such gorgeous woodwork like that, id repurpose the console

[@williamela3340]

The plastic looking material in the screen is a fernel lens. Certain ones act like a magnifying glass and will reach temperatures of over 2500 degrees F. Keep it

[@Deadman3RIP]

Keep the screen. You can do amazing stuff with it

[@DIYDumpRat]

Makes out he's going to make some serious coin on that tiny bit of dirty copper and alloy. When if he had dismantled it with care he could have sold the greebly bits and other parts for a lot more to people who actually want to buy them.

Damn Luigi, you went to town with that sledge hammer! Lol!! Not sure the little bit of magnet wire is worth all the effort though. I'd be much more interested in the optics, you could build a bad ass solar-powered metal melter with the Fresnel lens in the screen. Oh well, to each his own.

[@JFDhater]

I have now watched 3 videos from this guy, and he clearly has absolutely no idea how to "scrap" or salvage anything. he only likes to wreck shit. which makes me think that his spaceship in the garage is really his brother's, otherwise he would have taken a sledgehammer to it also.

[@Scratchin4Symbols]

😂😂😂

[@Busters72]

The way he smashes those CRTs...

[@TheRealKitWalker]

That was murder 🧐🤯🤨

[@moneymakingideas7235]

That’s was painful to watch, I felt bad for the TV. All of those years in technology destroyed. Imagine this guy running after “Johnny 5” with his sledgehammer.

[@ulfen92]

Is this what they call a destructive teardown?

[@missionscrapprwill7530]

You Would Make More Money On The Boards If U Leave Cooper On, but not as much as Copper alone seperate frm the boards, Copper holds the highest value, boards is like one $1 lesser, so Greg u doin it by the highest way of makin yo money, providin u have the time to do it, some Scrappers dont, so its not worth their time. Evrythng diffr frm 1 Scrappr to another, biggest thng to me is What Encourages U To Scrap, it does u Good to use yo Sludge Hammer, it does me Good to use me drill. Appreciate yo Sharin How To Scrap, i enjoy laughin at u with that Sludge Hammer. LoL Stay Encouraged

[@perryseay480]

wrong, those boards are low grade no matter what which equals 16 cent a lb. if you get more cause ur scrap yard are idiots good for you but there low grade populated or depopulated

[@mcguffeyryan]

Cant forget my safety glasses lol

Tank you danki

[@frankenstrat25]

dont pop those copper cores/wires off the mother boards, actually make more money with em on the boards

[@wilfromkc]

[@loudspeakertestsmorebyaida3804]

Instead of destroying and making a cluttered mess, just sell that TV if it was perfectly working and that’s much more worth getting money out of. If it didn’t work, I suggest carefully salvaging every electronic part in the best condition and selling it on Ebay. I am sorry, but scrapping isn’t such worth it as selling parts. You would get more money by just selling the whole TV if it worked or parts.

[@midnightstoker4_0]

Dude i use to watch his videos but damn idk now i just saved teo of them one from being almost tossed to rhe road id someone didnt buy it i got it for 25 bucks then i got a song befor that ome for 40 bucks shes black an beautiful

Ah, projector TVs. I remember almost killing myself helping a friend get one into his third floor flat. That was just before plasma displays cane out and rendered these beasts obsolete. Now you can't give them away (at least, not here in the UK) and those £2500 plasma displays are now practically worthless too (though I still much prefer them to LCD or LED ones in spite of the power consumption.)

I recently started scrapping electronics (Usually smaller things like cell phones, computers, monitors, wi-fi components, flat screen tv's, ect and I can assure you I Disassemble them, not smash) I have accumulated quite a mound of #7 plastics. They are clean pieces, free of any components. Where do you suggest I take them?

[@wingmanalive]

How can you salvage parts and make the most $ when you destroy them? You would make a HORRIBLE auto salvage yard operator. You DO know working parts are worth more than broken ones right? You would destroy a $20 part to get the $3 scrap value for it broken? You know there's gold on those motherboards right? You most likely got $30 for the destroyed raw metals you were after when if you were a civil human being you could've tripled that in selling the working components using a screw driver instead of a sledgehammer. But it seems you love your sledgehammer too much lol! Disassemble, don't destroy. At the very least the clean up is easier.
