    Where/how can I find big wires/cables? The only scrap wire I can get is from friends when I ask for old or broken electronics. Where I live, I don't have much room for broken down electronics, so I would like to gather copper from cables until I have sufficient space.

    Thanks guys!
    I used to have early coffee and got to know a bunch of AT&T guys. Often times in rural or remote areas they just buried their scrap. AT&T scrap is awesome. Just heard of a place in the woods where PGE did the same. Maybe you'll get lucky and talk to the right old-timer. Pays to get out and talk to folks. Might even watch and see where all the utility trucks park in AM or for lunch and get to know them. Works for me.
