    Smile A Scrapper in Charlotte , NC.

    Hello all Jack here from Carolina country and glad to be on this site. I have been recently without a ride so looking to make scrapping a fulltime type gig. Anyways I have started to get a couple of bags together of crushed Aluminum cans, also have some various pieces of steel that have some weight. Also have a few pieces of Brass and a SMALL amount of copper wiring. Anyways I think I will do well even though there is a ton of competition around here. There is a good scrapyard around here that will actually take aresol spray cans as long as they have been punctured already which I think is pretty cool. Anyways will be busting my rearend this week to have enough for a cheap used pickup truck. To be able to get more and haul nore stuff even more quickly.
    Basically starting from nothing but thinking I can work my way up to something pretty big.

    Good luck, Jack and welcome to the forum. I think it'd be kind of interesting for you to keep a diary as you go along. Literally from nothing to ???
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    I like m's idea of a diary, Jack. I'd like to say welcome also, and I wish you the best in your scrapping journey. I sure hope we can help you make the most out of everything you obtain "out there". And good luck with the truck...that will really be a good move.
