Then I was wondering if any of you planned on doing this and if so do you use all gold content boards or just high content boards like lnb and cell phone boards

I can neither confirm nor deny I've mentioned this several times in the past. There is a reason I love my LNBs.



Sirscrapalot - I'll take those, thank you.

Have you ever found one of these sheets? If so what was it

Search young grasshoppa, there are a few threads on it. An I hate having to repeat myself.

Also one by Mech if I recall, an Trot.

Sirscrapalot - More please.

If anybody wants these computers or parts, let me know or tomorrow they will be scrapped.

Tonight I just picked a box of bike parts, some radio stuff, and a micorwave. But in the box of bije parts was a GIANT model bike and I checked ebay and mine is practically identical and it is listed for $400.00 with 3 sold. Giant MTB XTC Fr Frame Size 22" XL Blue White Silver | eBay

Google Smiley Faces, an copy image.

Since I can't get the admin to add them, I have to go a searching on m'own!

Nice stuff S4E.

Sirscrapalot - Keeper of the traveling smiley?

Picked this up from my old school principal big a$$ welder. I think it's a 220 v plug though

My neighbor the IT guy told me that he would be getting some more stuff for me. He showed up today and I was not expecting this. 16 towers, around 15 printers, 11 keyboards, 6 monitors, 1 network setup for a server, 1 desk, an 80s laptop 1 word processor , and 5 of these things to printers

Oh I love that old school welder charger whatever it is, does it work?

S4E...Sorry I didn't respond before on that card question. I had mean to come back an give you an answer.

Yes, it's gold plated. You'd have to search for the thread, as Etack commented on it, an mentioned the possible yield for those if you had enough to be toll refined. Do you recall what LNB it came out of? Dish, Directv, Hughes?

Hughes is good stuff. Dish an Direct can go either way.

Liking the rest of the goodies you've found since I lost my way to your thread.

An is that a typewriter in the pic with the trailer an all the stuff in it?

Sirscrapalot - Always amazed at S4E, Kochy, an Red's finds.

I don't know it's a 220 v plug and I only have 110v our dryer is gas not electric so I can't plug it in there. Yeah I couldn't bring myself to scrap it but I did notice the shell is aluminum

I think it was dish never even heard of Hughes. I'm not sure if you realize about this that it is a metal gold colored sheet not a board. Couldn't find anything about that. The item on the trailer is a little more advanced than a typeriter I think they call em word processors they plug in

Well aware they are gold plated sheet.

The reply from Etack is in my direct tv thread I believe.

Hughes net is a sat provider that is used in the rv'ing community. High end sat dishes an the like, lot thicker gold. Not sure where or who else uses Hughes. I only know about them from RV'ing an my plans to future RV. With all the advances in cell phones tho, I don't think I'll need the sat internet when I hit the road.

I have a few of those gold plated thing a ma jigs. The cards can be gold, silver, an..vinyl or sumsuch not metal. I"ll have to find it an post a picture of it. Either way I love the buggers.

You can see the first one I ever pulled out in this thread.

Good info in both threads, an many others on LNB's. I know me an Trot like them, Mech to if I recall properly.

Anytime you get more feel free to give me a holler.

Sirscrapalot - Might just have to pull the trigger on something he's been working on for awhile.

So I think I scrapped a server because the case said server but if it is then how come the motherboard isn't dual socket Here are some other boards from it. If this is the hard drive what are these then

Pic#1 is just a single socket. The processor is under the fan and aluminum what sink. Pic#2 are finger boards. Pic#3 is an internal hard drive. Pic#4 is 3 1/2" floppy drives. Unless they're tested and working, they'd go as mid and high grade e-scrap. very nice haul.

Those look like welding leads in the pictures with your welder. That will be a nice haul if copper once they're stripped. They look pretty trashed, so I doubt they'd go for more than scrap value.
