[@damienwalsh5104]

Great job Dan, can't wait to to see the 2 tones, you will need another Stripper and the wife,😂😂🍺🍺🍺☘️

[@danthescrapper815]

Well hopefully they didn't get it collected before they found out about me.....Iv got 3 strippers so i should be ok hehe.

[@bradlang9494]

Tell you what, you're really clever at mafs! LOL 😂 Fabulous job, bet your glad to see that done. Bring on the 2t! after a little spell. He he.

[@danthescrapper815]

Hahaha...... The 2t will be nice, hopefully they didn't sell it before Christmas to that crook mob because they only found out about me at the same time.

[@jefft1122]

He'll of a haul love it!

[@danthescrapper815]

Thanks for watching Jeff.

[@Nazimvlogs04]

You are legend bro God bless you ❤

[@danthescrapper815]

Cheers Bro.

[@kenord3437]

Gee wilikers Dan, your the man, I certainly hope you do well out of all that work.

[@danthescrapper815]

Money will go towards a thailand holiday so the wife can visit her family.

[@cameronbrown9080]

Well done for all the hard work you and the wife have done and good to see a longer video

[@danthescrapper815]

Cheers Cameron, im glad its done and now im ready for more when its ready hehe......Longer videos seem to get less views probably because people have better things to do lol but i tried to avoid making it seem boring to keep the interest there.

[@sharkscrapper]

That is some interesting cable. I've not seen cable like that before. Very nice. New to your channel, looking forward to more.

[@danthescrapper815]

Its underground mains cable and it has replaced the use of copper cable....Thanks for watching and subscribing.

[@Derbyhobbiescrapper]

Very nice mate

[@danthescrapper815]

Thankyou

[@JohnnySwedishScrapper]

that is an think alu wire ;) great video and find ;)

[@danthescrapper815]

Thanks Johnny, now i want more hehe.

[@JohnnySwedishScrapper]

@@danthescrapper815 hehehe i bet but it would give more if it where copper ;)

[@danthescrapper815]

@johnnybjorkdahl it might pay much more but that would also mean id need to buy it at a higher price off my customer otherwise they would sell it somewhere else so in the end whether copper or aluminium the profits you make are very similar just the numbers are smaller will ally cable.....I paid 80c a kilo for that ally cable and will currently get $2.30kg for it stripped......Iv worked everything out so its balanced.

[@JohnnySwedishScrapper]

@@danthescrapper815 ahh i see

[@nancybateson4579]

Would like to see you pealing the cables.

[@danthescrapper815]

Showing more peeling did cross my mind but thought it would make the video too boring because peeling is not really that fun to do haha.

[@SilverScorpion]

That's a lot of aluminum cable bro! 😳 well done

[@danthescrapper815]

Yeah mate just a few kilos there, may sell it later this week coz expecting prices to rise a bit more this week.

[@ScrapMetalTV.]

You have been busy mate, hopefully there's a nice return on the effort 💰

[@danthescrapper815]

Very busy haha, it should be around or just under $1500 which will go towards a thailand holiday so the wife can see her family.

[@fredself7846]

Well, the big question is what kind of money will that bring at the Yard.

[@danthescrapper815]

Around or just under $1500 it will be.

[@sooglablue]

What’s the current return on aluminium cable stripped vs unstripped? I’ve just got a large amount of 240-300mm aluminium cable and just wondering if it’s going to be worth stripping. I will need to buy a machine as well

[@danthescrapper815]

I actually stripped some ally cable this evening....For me its like this, i buy it unstripped for 80c a kilo and when i sell it stripped at current price of $2.70kg ill do a touch better than doubling my money on the purchase.......Tho this time i pulled a heap out of the bin which was a bonus so its profit, profit, profit all the way.

[@sooglablue]

Thanks for the info! I’m only new to this. What do you use to cut the larger cables? I was thinking an 18v bandsaw

[@danthescrapper815]

@sooglablue Iv got a Milwaukee Sawzall and that cuts it nice and easy and is also handy for when your out and about.

[@iffy9776]

Is there any way you can turn it into copper...lol .

[@danthescrapper815]

Yep a can of spray paint, ok lots of spray paint lol but the problem would then be why does cable this thick only weigh 632kg.

[@charlesyates6687]

I just stripped 200 lbs of alluminum cable took it in got 8c per lbs . Not worth messing with

[@danthescrapper815]

Ohh fek thats bloody terrible, im almost getting $3.00kg here in Australia for clean ally cable so definitely worth it for me.
