    G'day from downunder

    G'day from downunder my names brad from Sydney Australia
    Worked in construction and minor demolition for 2o+ years so i was no stranger to the scrap yard and have always collected copper cable and pipe for a rainy day .that rainy day came at Christmas last year (even though it was 40°c lol) and stumbled across this forum looking for wire strippers and started reading threads and been hooked on scrapping since and the knowledge I've gained from here is near priceless. Thank you

    Welcome to the forum. We are always interested in how things are done in countries other than our own. We have several members from Australia. In case you haven't noticed we like photos. Mike

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked

    G'day mate. My mom lived in Australia as an adolescent and had many friends who visited the US. I went to Aussie in '93 and we landed in Sydney before hopping to Melbourne/Geelong. Went to see the 12 Apostles before London Bridge fell. Went to the Hillsdale Wildlife Sanctuary and skied Mt Buffalo in August (most of the snow has already melted here in Florida by the time August rolls around).

    Welcome to the forum.
