Scrapping a Mystery Box - What Could It Be?

#scrapping #money #copper
In this video I open up this box to discover a nice copper aluminum transformer for scrap metal.
Hi, my name is James and I love scrapping metal for money. I scrap it all, copper, brass, aluminum etc...
Come join me on my scrapping adventures where I share how I scrap items for easy money. I sometimes will go street scrapping or dumpster diving looking for scrap metal.
Please have a look at my scrapping videos and I hope you'll consider subscribing to my channel.
If you'd like to mail me anything you can email at [e-mail] and I'll give you my mailing address.
Thank you for stopping by and God bless y'all.

[@jeffP777]

@@scrapitall200 after reading my first message I realized I forgot to say that your love/enthusiasm of scraping is contagious. I have found that I really enjoy doing this. I just need to find a balance for what is worth putting my time and effort into scraping for more value vs hurry up and get the house and property empty so it can go on the market. I’m kind of thinking about how to set up a small workshop at my house to do this in my free time for fun and a little extra cash here and there. Now that I’m thinking about it and have seen the cash and checks coming in. I have started to see all kinds of stuff people put out on the curb with a free sign on it. Really a lot of free money out there available you just have to spend a little time and effort to extract it.

[@scrapitall200]

I love scrapping, it’s a lot of fun for me and it is definitely a great source for extra money. Last year I made over $4,000 hobby scrapping. I hope my videos will help you learn things that will help you with your scrapping adventures.

at my scrap yard, nuts and bolts if saved together, like in a bucket, they put it under short steel instead of shred

I was hoping that is was all copper because it was old but half is just as good. I wish all transformers were made like that.

I prefer to cut the welds with an angle grinder, but I think there's advantages to using a hammer instead. For one, you save money on grinding discs, as well as wear and tear on your grinder.

@@scrapperbrad it’s definitely faster. For me since I work in a shelter logic tent I’m worried sparks or hot metal dust will ruin the tent, plus I try to show ways of doing things without post tools since many new scrappers don’t have all the tools, I know I didn’t at first lol.
