What if I could do this or if I did that. Its kind of funny that you mentioned that we all started out as smash and grabs.

10 years ago is when I found out that ewaste material contained gold and other precious metals. At this time I am not interested in copper content of ewaste. In the future I maybe interested in copper to produce a end product to sell for more than scrap copper price.

Just trying to give everybody a little push and nudge to getting the most for their scrap.

End product from copper, do tell what you have in mind.



Personally I would make Pyro grade aluminum powder, at nearly $50.00 a pound cant go wrong.

Iron oxide, no problem. probably cheaper to purchase it in bulk. The red iron oxide to what they;re using as a fire retardant on the BC wildfires. https://phoschek.com/product-class/f...-for-wildland/

Looking at casting copper and brass products. I saw a video on youtube where a guy was grinding down aluminum to make powder.
