Scrapping some stubborn sump pumps for loads of FREE COPPER, METAL, SILVER, and other metals

Hello scrappers and planet lovers. In this video, I take apart a metal cased sump pump to answer the question "do all sump pumps have aluminum windings, or can they also be made with copper windings?" I also tackle a heavily corroded pump to show you how to open it in order to get to the motor. I will show you how to safely and effectively identify and sort the metal in order to help maximize your profit and divert as much of the material away from the landfill as possible.
Here are the other links mentioned in the video:

Great timing. Just replaced my sump pump and kept the old one. Will have plenty of scrapping fun...and dirty beat up hands.

Heavy rust? Soak in 100% vinegar for a few hours. Wire brush. Almost like new. Reuse vinegar.
