A couple days? From the Forum stats (as of 4:37 AM 7/16/12): Threads 7,751; Posts 80,220.
People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

Well a couple of days will give you a very good start and you will be far better educated than the average scrapper.

When I first joined, recently, I read a huge majority of the material here. I think you'll find, like I did, that a lot of it is repeated, and then there's a lot of leisure-type of talking, where it's not something you can get knowledge from. (like people joking and playing around with each other.) I'm not sure exactly how much I read, but it was at least 6-10 hours worth, and I'm a pretty fast reader.

good luck! I wonder how many posts are added each day!

And when your done you'll have a degree in scrapology,,,

If you enjoy your freedom, thank a vet.
Im starting with the ewaste section because I feel that I could use the knowledge from that section the most. Perhaps I will just skim through the "off topic" section but, Im going to try to read just about everything.
Yes mick you are right it will probably take longer than a couple of days.
Hobo: There isnt too many post per day. Some threads only have a handful of posts per day because the rest of the post are from other days.
Im going to try reading about 3-4 hours per day and see where that gets me. including all of the posts from the current day so, I dont get behind on anything.
thanks for the encouragement.
When I joined there were far less threads to read and then I have just kept up. Reading the old threads will give you a perspective on how the knowledge base has developed.
For me ewaste was the most money maker but in the beginning I was only interested in breaking down items to get Cu, Al, SS and brass. By taking the time to read most/all of the threads you should learn many helpful tips. I will be interested in reading you conclusions after you have completed your task. Perhaps you will tell us what you were surprised by. Mike.

Good luck with some of my stuff on life if you figure it out hit me with a PM , a joke .
but it lays down some truth , that our post's i bet have been read by the IRS - DEP - EPA - FBI ??? you never know .
I always like reading about CU & boards ( ewaste ) I feel since reading about ewaste it caused me to see each & every circuit board for what it is A great selling item.

Good luck, maybe by telling evryone what you discover some of the newer people will follow suit and read before posting a question that has been answered over and over again. What is learned here by reading can't be learned in any school. I know I have increased my knowledge ten fold in a few short months and am forever in debted to those who share their knowledge.
