    We did a site clearance on a site ready for tarmac, the site manager said any scrap we find we could keep. I dont think he expected us to pulll up miles of redundant high voltage cable with the 360. It took us days to strip it all best bonus we've had to date.

    My yard would never let two different items on the scale at the same time. They also pick through everything. Like that bucket of brass they would dump it out and check each piece.

    When I was a kid whenever we were skint you could just donder thru a side door of this factory and walk past the few people there like you work there then fill a wheelbarrow up with aluminium bars and walk back out again. Heavy work but good money. Almost as good as when we had a working alarm for Tesco. Great days

    Makes you wonder how much you'd have gotten if you stripped as much of that 99kg as the stripper would work on. I strip absolutely everything that my stripper can strip cleanly.( powercords are too flexible and get real prickly, drawing blood.) But I'm on a 1 tonne mission before I cash it in so am going all out with stripping wire, motors and transformers. With all the small unstrippable wire, I'm planning building a granulator so all copper can go top dollar.
