    hello just getting started powell knox tennessee

    Hello just getting started in the powell knoxville, tn area. Just starting as a hobby/second part-time job I hope to expand to make a bigger business. My wife and I just had our first baby today looking to make more money on side with me scraping. I work fulltime pick cans up all over plus whatever small appliances I come across. Just wanting to have fun and make more money on side for my family since wifey is unable to work. Any tips or guidance is appreciated thanks john boy

    Welcome to our hang out. Congrats on the newborn!!!

    If u wanna learn then u have come to the right place. There is so much knowldge and wisdom here that I can't wrap my head around it, and I have been reading for about 6 months. Some of the older and more experienced scrappers have so much to offer, as well as the younger and newer scrappers. Pretty sure that u will have some imput on some topics that come up. Be sure to post and comments on topics that come up.
    If u have questions then read through the archives first, cause most things have been covered somewhere. If after u have read and cannot get the answer u want, then ask away. Many ppl on here daily or like me several times a day. I'm sure that someone can give u an answer, or point u in the right direction to find an answer.
    As always have fun scrapping and most important be safe

    That was real nice of you Mikeinreco......I like to give things away too. It may even come about that bartering will replace our present monetary system to a degree in the future. We may as well get started.
