    First big haul(for me anyways)

    Well, after a few months of collecting metal I found anywhere I could get it, I took in my first big load of iron. Usually I had only brought in copper plates and the such but decided to go ahead and start doing all metals it part time. I had 632 lbs. of iron shred at $160.00 per ton. Made 50 bucks, but the wire, copper, aluminum and stainless I had got me up to 100.00 bucks even. I was nervous but the yard was really great. I had everything sorted pretty good thanks to the people on this forum. Just wanted to say thanks big time to all of you. It wasn't much but for this part time dude it was much needed money at a much needed time. I'm hooked.

    It just gets better from here on.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
