And, truth be known, he is too stubborn to do so himself. But I figure that I might learn a little more what he is about, & what scrapping is about. Thank you !

You will have no choice but to support him............Scrapping will consume his life and you must either ride with him or against him.........(LOL)....Welcome

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum. Re-use is the best recycling so you are already in the club. I warn you if you read the old threads here you may soon know much more about scraping than he does, certainly in some areas of scraping. This may lead to more profit for you. It will also open you eyes to items you might walk by in your hunt for costume jewelry such as brass, copper, electronics etc. So proceed with caution, knowledge is power, Mike.
