    Frank from Miami

    Hi, just happened to stumble on these forums today, which has turned out to be a really good thing. Ive been non-stop reading, theirs just tons of great information on here. Im pretty familiar with basics of scrap hauling/recycling, and have been doing it for the past year or two and want to further progress into this industry. I plan on opening a wire chopping business and been researching different machines for the past few months. If anyone has any thoughts or experience in the wire chopping business, it would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks,

    How much bad weather do you all get? Keep wanting to relocate, but I keep fearing tornados, earthquakes, and whatever else might happen.

    Then again, my wife might divorce me since all our family is here lol.

    Unfortunately, that is what happens when the state is off a major ocean like that.

    What part of FL do you reside in?

    Oh George, the joy you bring!
    Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.
