Thank you, my friend! I prefer the smaller stuff too, I definitely enjoy micro scrapping more than large stuff. But, I do scrap it all lol. Have a blessed day!
A nice motor to strip, I admired the tenacity with the handsaw, I also knock the cast ally fins off the rotor, not a lot But it all adds up. Nice post James
Nice new gloves, safety glasses & tool sets, that was pretty nice of Anthony and Audrey. You make this stuff way too easy even when you don't have the right tool or tools. I think I would have pounded on the perimeter as well to loosen the copper up. Fun project to watch
It was such a wonderful surprise. I truly have some of the best subscribers. I really do think it helps. I used to struggle removing the copper sometimes, but not much anymore. Thank you so much my friend and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Another great video You don't have to have a air cheissel you can use a electric hammer drill set to just hammer or just a flat piece of steel with a v cut into it and hit it with a hammer 🤠
I always scrap motors, best thing next to transformers. The bigger the motor the less copper you get compared to weight. 8 to 10 percent on the ones I did. Good vid God bless ya!
I've always found scraping motors to be a good return but I just did a 400lb motor with a solid steel rotor and I think I would have gotten more to bring it in whole.
Love it brother. Nice big motor there and a nice pile of copper. I thought the profit there was worth taking it apart for sure. You know me, even if it wasn't I'd still be taking it apart
I have always started with the strings then go after the plastic strips that protect the copper then I use a screw to loosen the coils and unwind them. Your way is a lot faster for sure. But I am not in a rush.
M8 you have a good sense of humour , hard worker and a God's blessing to all of us , who watch your channel. I appreciate your teachings in regards to make me a better scrapper ( or junky as a former customer used to refer to the trade of scrapping metal .) I liked this video and i have learned the do's and dont's of rhe trade. Keep up the good work. God bless y'all.
I'd probably scrap it without thinking about it. I just always like to see what I get. If I had a bunch of the same one I might just do the first one though. Thanks for the breakdown!
I just recently took a segway scooter apart to scrap. Most of it was aluminum. The electric motor was in the front tire. It was copper. But be careful taking apart hoverboards.. the electric motors in the wheels are aluminum.. the 2 I scrapped had aluminum motors and the scooter had a copper motor. Just thought I'd give a heads up . Jame's thanks for all the videos u post. Helps alot
Hey first let me say this whole time I thought you went by Scraptail.. But I got a lil closer look at it now, LOL.. I have hauled too many trailer loads of washers and dryer’s for just shred. I will be pulling All electric motors now.. thanks buddy and God bless.😅
Another great video, thank you. What is inside a rotor? Or is it just a block of steel? I’m sure I’m going to get that question from the preschool scrapper on Monday when he watches this. God Bless you.
Thank you! It’s mostly steel with a little aluminum but the only way to recover the aluminum is to melt it out, which would never be worth the effort. Hope you both have a great week! God bless!
Great video scrapitall! Love the informative videos and great effort you put into them! Unfortunately I do not have power tools or a vice yet, so I am limited on the motors that I can scrap, but I usually just scrap air conditioners microwaves etc and bring electric motors whole to the yard, great videos once again 😊
Thank you so much! When I first started I didn’t have many tools at all, including grinder so I pretty much just scrapped that sort of stuff as well. Does your yard give you a decent price for electric motors?
@@scrapitall200yeah, they offer a fairly decent price. Just recently I turned in some electric motors from fans, food processors, vacuums, microwaves etc… (my scrapyard buys transformers as “electric motors”) and they currently offer 80 cents (AUD) per kg for motos so I bought in a heap of electric motors I’ve been collecting and made a quick fix of $25.60 I also bought in some cu/al radiators and some number 2 and 1 copper so altogether I made roughly 100 bucks altogether! How is your scrapyards and do they offer you decent prices?
That’s really awesome! Scrapyards in my state are on the lower end of average prices. One yard I just sell my steel and aluminum and stainless, the other I sell all the better stuff.
Another awesome and enjoyable video sir it's a pleasure watching some one else who micro scrap's also thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother
I always scrap motor! Rather there is a profit ot not, I'm just a hobby scrapper and it's fun so that alone is all the profit I need !! Great scrap out brother !
I was thinking because the script price be good for motors here is like 50 cents AUD a kilo in my neck of the woods. But working through your weight through prices here. Roughly $10 AUD different. I know in other parts of Australia like Melbourne you can get good price for shred but here even pay you unless it's commercial quantity and then it like 9 cents a kilo. Cheers Graham
@@theaussienurseflipper.8113 oh wow! It still amazes me the difference in prices in different regions. Definitely is nice to know what everything weighs so we can get the most for our scrap. Have a great weekend friend.
I just finally tore down an old Fairbanks Morse motor that was over 100 pounds. A cool looking motor, but I probably should have sold it whole as the stator didn't have as much copper asil I thought it would. The rotor was loaded with copper so I pull the stator and sell the rotor along with the cases.
I use an air hammer to drive the copper through the stator rings.. everyone does it differently and I don’t always do things the same way. Depends on if I have a time frame and need some extra cash or just wanting to waste some time doing something I enjoy that can pay me in the long run lol
Heavy motor! That’s an awesome gift! That was a work out and a half buddy! Coming out easy so that’s a plus buddy! Definitely worth scrapping because I like hoarding copper! Another awesome video my friend hope you have a great weekend god blew my friend!

Hey James, great video as always. I'm in Minnesota and this last summer, the city of St. Paul had a ring of copper thieves that went around and stole the copper from a bunch of street lights. To remedy this, in their ultimate wisdom our state legislators just announced that they have passed a new law requiring ANYONE selling copper to get a license from the state which costs $250.00/year. This was just announced and goes into effect January 1st 2025. In essence, they have eliminated the hobby scrappers in the state that do micro scrapping. I was wondering if you had heard anything about new regulations in your area. My personal opinion is that if you're stealing thousands of dollars worth of copper, you can find someone who can get a license to get rid of it. I've been scrapping on the side for years, but it's hardly worth it if you have to pay half your profits just for the privilege of keeping stuff out of the landfill. Just curious if mine was the only state doing this. God bless brother.
Thank you! That’s awful and it’s exactly what I’ve been expecting to happen, especially if the value of copper goes up, more thieves. So far in my state there hadn’t been any laws passed like that, but I imagine it’s only a matter of time. That really sucks! They need to have something for micro scrappers. Thieves aren’t micro scrapping. Sorry to hear this brother. God bless you!
Great video love your channel and that is one big motor. I don’t get many big ones like that,I’ve got a duck stripper on my bench I’ve been pecking at biggest one I’ve gotten so far. I never thought about beating around the wire to loosen it up will give that a shot thanks for the tip😊
Hi James! Think i never heard your real name in one of the videos. (And of course i never asked for it 😂). This motor seemed to be a bit of hard work but in the end it payed off! Thank you for the video, see u Saturday!
I don’t think I’ve said it before on a video. I actually like how you write “SIA” It sure was fun though. Thank you my friend. Hope you’re feeling good and have a great week.
That was a little disappointing on the copper. Was hoping that you got twice that amout. I guess if I ever run across a similar motor, I would probably just scrap it as is. But you're definitely helping people by exposing what is worth the time of disassembling and what is not. Thanks James !
I don't come across motors of that size. I'm curious about using an angle grinder versus a sawzall. Which one makes more dust? Or is there a cost differential in grinding wheels versus sawzall blades? Like hydraulic presses, not everyone has a band saw. I'd think a band saw would have a thinner blade, making less dust.
Bandsaw would probably be the best. Sawzall can work but a lot of times the teeth from the sawzall blade will grab the copper and make a big mess. Smaller the teeth and bigger the wire is better. Idk if the grinder makes more dust than sawzall, but it definitely spreads it more. Hope that helps bud. .
Did you try it before smacking it around, to see if they would come out? I'm curious about how hard it would be. I've had some real bears that I didn't beat but some weren't too bad.
I just scrapped out a 400lb motor I found on the side of the road. I got about $110 CDN of copper out of it and $30 in steel. My yard however pays 40c a lb for motors so I think I actually would have made $20 more to bring it in whole.
