    From a thread I made awhile ago:
    #1 Copper - stripped wire strands there are bigger than a number two pencil lead. May be called “Bright and Shiny”.
    #2 Copper - does not meet criteria for #1 Copper. Is free of any alloy such as soldering.
    Light Copper - miscellaneous Copper scrap.

    The thread might be of some use to you also: http://www.scrapmetalforum.com/showt...ight=beginners
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
