    That top piece has a sticker that says GOULDS. In my hometown GOULDS is a Discount Medical supply company. Go figure. 🐎✌️

    Not bad! Yes, good payday! 9 - 12 $ in 1/4 hour, average $10.50/hour = $42/hour. Enjoy your videos, watching from Tahiti.

    When you started unbolting it, I was thinking "Oh, no...he's going to make a mess!" 😂 I've done a couple and learned the same way! 🤪

      the buyer that the yards sell dictates how big they want it, and it may be who they sell it to

    I'm really interested And how much money you can recover from that Pump Breaking it down the way you did And what horse power was that on the Stainless steel tag I got about fifteen of those pumps at home That are dead

    • @Okiescrapper
      @Okiescrapper  Рік тому +1

      lot's of cast iron in them, the impeller looks to be cast iron too, but some can be stainless or brass, so it would be good to check, I will have to look at the tag, but I bet that it has about 4 lbs. of copper

    • @gusfc1842
      @gusfc1842 Рік тому

      @Okiescrapper Wow I figured you get a little bit more copper than that My scrap yard offered me eighteen cents a pound for the pumps I'll probably go with that Instead of trying to rip them apart 😅. Also i've been Holding on To my copper for so long I forgot Can you sneek That Copper windings in with number one copper?
