Welcome to the forum.
I would start out by reading as much as you can here.
Learn how to identify different types of metals and types of scrap.
Check your area for scrap yards and see how much they are paying. Some have websites and update prices daily.
Make sure you have buyers for your scrap before you start.
If you decide to scrap TV's and CRT monitors make sure you have a place to legally dispose of the tubes.
The last thing you want to do is scrap for a year and realize you can't get rid of any leftover waste or find a buyer for the scrap.
