Scrapping some small Fridge Fan Motors for Copper

[@silver_salvage_savage]

Finally someone is addressing those small rotary looking fan motors. I split one with an old knife I found scrapping, made a mess but it worked out great in the end. 👍

when I first tried to scrap one I thought how in the world. after trying different ways this is about the easiest why I could come up with

Hi Happy Scrapping! Take Care be Safe

[@Okiescrapper]

#happyscrapping will do, and you take care

Great video. Now, I've learned the easiest way to get copper out of those types of motors.

[@Okiescrapper]

I fought with them for a long time.

[@timsmith9645]

Great video thanks for sharing

[@Okiescrapper]

you are welcome

I have never even seen one of these motors in any fridges I get. At least not that I remember. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@chantzrosa2820]

These are found in grocery cases.

[@Okiescrapper]

the older units will have them, I have found them in other items from time to time too. most of the newer ones have the motor in a plastic case

[@cuscrapping]

Hope you are safe from the storms! I agree about the extra work. I won't take stuff that is inside the house, or in a back yard where I can't back up to it and load it straight onto the truck. Just not worth it.

[@christopherjacobs2746]

I agree I tell everyone I pick scrap up from that everything has to be outside of the house and easily accessible

[@Okiescrapper]

best way to do it, don't want to be liable for damages

Hello my friend form Poland, hope you are doing well

[@duanekennard3298]

I see where Oklahoma has been getting tornadoes. I pray it's not in your area whenever I hear it. I was thinking.Here is what I would tell people when they have something in their house that they want removed. I would simply state,"Due to insurance and liability reasons" I do not go into the home. I will remove items that are placed outside. And actually in today's messed up World with everyone being sue happy....that's exactly what I would say and do. But that's only my opinion my friend. Again and as always I enjoyed stopping by. Stay safe !

[@Okiescrapper]

yeah that is what I try to tell them too, I don't get them inside very often

[@huckstirred7112]

how is consumable life for the plasma . I am surprised you don't use it more

[@allencheck501]

Hey okie scrapper you ok ? Saw some vids of tornado damage just wanted to make sure you are ok! Some of them places got pretty tore up

[@Okiescrapper]

all is well here, the one by Cole has been the closest one so far, and it was about 5 miles away. we have some thunderstorms moving through as I type this

😁

[@ScrappingwithGrandpa]

I turn mine in as electric motors. 25 to 28 cents a pound

[@Okiescrapper]

that is a good way to do it for someone that has a very long to-do-list. like most scrappers, not enough hours in a day, but it did make a good video opportunity for the guys that have the time and want to break them down. it is easy to spend too much time on an item. not everything is worth breaking down, take care

[@peterdidonato1590]

You are better off using wire clippers

[@Okiescrapper]

they may get to your hand after a while. I have thought about using my long handle cable cutters. I may give them a try
