    Hello from Upstate NY!

    Hello folks!



    I live in upstate NY and have just gotten into scrapping literally a few days ago. It seems very cool and a good way to make some cash on the side. I'm already figuring stuff out for myself and I am looking forward to getting tips and tricks from you guys

    Welcome from NYC! You've come to the right place for information. A good starting point is the "Scrap Metal Basics" section. There are also folders at the top of most of the other sections in the forum that contain a lot of info on specific topics. Wishing you success!

    Welcome to the Forum!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!
