Mate, the wine/scrap fests are certainly my favorite! The way you're speaking is called "stream of consciousness" and it's one of my favorite forms of communication. I know you're not trying it, because you either have the skill or you don't. You have the skill. I listened to a few radio presenters that spoke the same way and I've been listening to AM radio since the 70's. One must be nimble of the mind to be able to carry on a two-way conversation in this style. It's probably one of the top 5 reasons I watch you.

Is there a difference in a processing station to a depopulating/disassembling station or they are considered the same there?if i were you, id read the law and trying to figure out what "a prosessing station " means. Maybe a line stating for example "with the use of chemicals" can make all the difference.

If the TVs work, why not just sell them on gumtree? List them for pick up at $5-$20 and watch them fly out of your stockpile =). You could take them out of the casing, keep the extra scrap, or just sell them whole so you're not left with the plastic.

Yeah, well, I'd be removing the extruded aluminium heat sink off every board or card, in every instance, as a matter of procedure, if it comes off clean, regardless of whether to leave it off or on to get away with a better price. The board or card is gonna be worth less in the context of weight but you'd be furnishing better sorted product to the recycler or scrap yard, both with the boards and with the extruded. You'd be partially making it up by having just that much more of that beautiful, clean, extruded to go. But, most importantly, furnishing better product.

I always take every alu heatsink I see on boards off too. Even the little ones because I just have the time. So is that the best thing to do in terms of making the buyers happier?
@eWasteBen3 жыл бұрын
That would certainly make a buyer happier, in 1 tonne lots your buyer would happily pay a little more for that stuff. They can just bag it and send to the refiner. Remember, the next guy is getting the same price as you for heatsinks on in most cases
