    Possibly 100+ crt's available

    If I in fact had 100 or more computer crt's to give away free, as well as a steady supply (around 50 per month) would anybody be interested to come and get them? I live in Southwest Colorado (Montrose)

    Do you mean monitors. Nobody here would walk across the street for CRT's alone.

    Hoss don't forget your Shock Doctor Titan Alloy Flex Sports Cup!

    Just remember to connect your ground strap to it!

    Yes, CRT monitors. I own a non profit computer supplier for kids, and I tend to collect alot of monitors. I know they are popular with scrappers

    Props for the non profit stuff..

    However, unless you can find someone local, I would hire a part timer and break down the CRTS, or some high school kid looking to make a few bucks.

    I have a few hundred CRT TVs and monitors.

    I try to have people come out and tear them down for me.

    I let them keep the coils and yokes and I get everything else.

    You guys clean the aluminum and copper off of your boards?

    Seems too costly in time and effort.

    Unless there's a trick I've yet to discover.

    Also, is there a market for the flyback transformers?

    If this was covered elsewhere, sorry.

    First post...

    I'm excited to have found this place.

    We throw our smaller motors and smaller transformers and flybacks all in together and our yard buys them.
    Back on the 31st of Oct. we got .28 a lb for it all, 347 lb worth.

    How are you going to get them from Colorado, USA?
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
