I guess scrapping doesn't always go as planned. - Page 2

I'm tired of being the watch dog for the mutts on this forum, as members its your duty to inform others of the possible dangers they may encounter.

The scrap metal forum portrays itself as one big family.

Source.

Each parent owes to each child, as a legal matter, a fiduciary duty. The parent is required by law to act in the best interest of the child and failure to do so can impose both civil and criminal liability (child neglect.) And, since the child is a minor, there can be no waiver of such fiduciary duty by the child.

Alloy take care when swinging a big hammer.....you might smash your thumb.

There, I did my fiduciary duty...now who is going to clean up my duty??

It's only $50 a year here to license a utility trailer so a few trips would pay for that. It's not 16 ft long but it's probably 10 or 12 anyhow. Thanks for the inspiration.

No problem. If you are able to get it modified, you will find it a good place to store shred until you have a full load (it is a lot more organized and looks better than a bunch of scrap all over the place). Then when you do have a full load, all you have to do is hook up and go as it is already loaded. Plus the trailer allows you to pick up a larger load if one comes available.

Most of us are aware even after an AC unit has been evacuated some freon still remains with the compressor oil, wannabescrapper works night shift and has a lot of free time on his hands.

He dismantles things inside his van to pass the time, would you dismantle AC units in an enclosed space, claims he wore a respirator. What did his faithful companion wear - the dog.

That refrigerant line first image was in no way cut by a professional.

Personally I thjnk for the safety of wannabescrapper and his dog this incident should be reported to the authority;s..

What the hell? My dog was never in the van with me when I was at work, or when I scrapped these out in the van, with the three doors open and a respirator on. Do me a favour, Gill. Call the authorities on me. You know my phone number and location. I read your email strin this morning and realized that you are not a good person at all. Why would you send me all of this help with veiled threats to report me? Be a man. Say what you mean. Don't allude to reporting me, just report me. Let's play a game and see who can make the other one's life the hardest. You could have told me all of this when you phoned me last night instead of me getting to wake up and read it this morning. What a wolf in sheep's clothing.

I don't want to breathe it either and thiought I was protecting myself with the respirator and opening the doors. I have a lot of lung problems and don't need anything to complicate it so I will not be scrapping out AC units without doing more research on the subject. I have already inquired into taking the ODP course and have started the research into properly evacuating refrigerants. Until I learn more about it I won't be touching them again. I will also post the video of me scrapping them out, so there can be no doubt from the peanut gallery that I did not put my dog at risk of anything.

Thanks for the info on the gas being trapped. That's helpful to know.

I don't have a 16 foot one but I'll see if a friend can have a look and maybe reinforce this one. If not, I will just keep it for storing lumber in the yard. Thanks for the info, you're right that it would suck to have a break down, especially with the amount of hills we have here.

Now that I have your attention.

Freon is 4 times heavier than air and sinks to the ground/floor initially when a leak occurs. Freon will rapidly disperse due to its high volatility.

In case anyone was thinking I was holed up inside the van while doing this. The reason I chuckle at the start of this is because I realized I had taken the entire video of me scrapping with the lens pointing upward in selfie mode. I had stuck it in a slot on the open van door and must have switched it with my fat thumb.

Propane tank valve removal tool almost completed, once cut in half this will make two sockets. Tomorrow a half inch drive will be added to the end of each tool then the Milwaukee impact will do all the hard work.
