    Smile Hello from Estonia

    Hi from Estonia!

    I work in company as IT-guy and i had cellar filled with all kind stuff, cables/comps. So one day i thought: hey i could scrap out copper from all these wires. So now im doing it as hobby, couple hours at evening, sometime less. At first i was doing only cables, but oneday i found a company that buys e-waste in Estonia, so thats how i dived into e-waste. Havent done it much yet but goodies is piling up now. This forum has been HUGE help for me and i do enjoy reading stuff here. Things are bit different here as for most you guys in US, for excample dealing with e-bay will be huge hassle, sofar only one buyer 100km away, always calculate lb to kg when reading stuff.
    Also dont be too hard on me when i misspell something.

    Judging from your post, you've been lurking an reading, an thats a good thing! Don't worry to much over your typing/English friend. You type better then some folks I know..LOL. Most folks here are pretty good about such things, unless its..reaaally bad. So keep on doing what your doing, read, research an profit!

    Good luck to ya!

    Welcome to the fourm and you are doing a great job communicating. Read the "sticky" threads at the top of different sections of the forum to gain lots of information quickly.

    By the way what language do you speak at home/work? Mike

    Since you are from Europe, is it a pretty good bet that your english education was better than any of ours.

    Years ago I had the opportunity to work with a Latvian and a Lithuanian. They didn't like each other very much. Maybe we needed an Estonian to help keep the peace.

    Hey Kuller00, good to hear from you and thanks for sharing your story. Keep up the work. One day you might just do this full time. Don't worry about mis-spelling words, you're a scrapper, not an English teacher.
