    Will you please stop touching me!

    Scrapping 101.

    I know this has been discussed before but it didn't really hit home until 6 weeks ago when I was trying to sort my circuit boards.

    I save up my boards for about a year and then I sell them. Shred, copper, aluminum and brass are sold monthly because I need the space.

    What I've been doing lately is throwing all boards in boxes until they're full and storing them in an out of the way place to be sorted at a later date when I have the time.

    Well that time came recently and at a very inconvenient time.

    While sorting and boxing up my boards a few weeks ago I realized this was the second time I had handled them. The third time for some of them.

    I was pissed off because I knew better.

    So now the sorting is complete and everything has been hauled off to my buyers.

    Clean slate, a pile of empty boxes and a garage that is already starting to get full of computers and phone systems that need to be scrapped.

    Doing things different this time.



    What I've scrapped this past week has been put in its proper box or container never to be touched again until its time to take it to my buyer or scrapyard.

    Lesson learned.
