Always worth scrapping an ac window unit! Lots of goodies inside! Dad gotten some with aluminum in the compressor big Bertha always makes it easy for you buddy! Awesome video buddy!
@@nicejunk666yes nasty things I got lucky so did the guy who gave it to me cause it was in his back seat they could have flown out any time he didn't no they were on there either till I showed him a pic of them. Just goes to show ya shake your ac if it has a cover on it the also go into the circle fan thing.
I cheat what you used a grinder on I use a plasma. I skip the time to drill a hole in it to drain but what I do is I always keep it upright at all time and leave it sit for a while. this way the oil is on the bottom Then when I do decide to cut them open when i have a few laying around and a cooler day, fire up the plasma i cut them open but i always keep them upright even when i pick them up onto my cutting table at all time and when i get the copper out then i drain the oil out from the bottom, no need for me to do that extra step of drilling a hole but i see why people do it when they lay them down sideways to cut them open with a grinder. as long as you cut above that bottom notch/ indent you won't hit the oil and drain it all over. I like air conditioners. I picked 2 up on a back road a few weeks ago. here they charge you $20or $25 to throw them away whole so they always end up on a back country road someplace when they are no good anymore. If i go someplace i always travel back roads and then i will usually use a different route when i come home. you just never know when you will find a fridge or an ac just dumped.

It was to greasy I think the compressor burst, there was hardly any oil in it, and heat marks on the rotor
