    Greetings fellow scrapers

    My name is Allen, I live in a small town outside of Albany NY. I am a part time scraper looking to go full time. Not sure where to start. Make most of my money with breaking down stuff like electric motors, large machines, and engines.

    Hello & Welcome to the forum Allen,
    As you are breaking down Motors, engines and machinery at the moment, i think
    the best place on here is to start reading the older posts concerning this stuff,
    It will give you valuable information that you may or may not already know.?

    It will also give you an idea of the best methods that other members use in breaking down the same sort of scrap.
    Helping you to maximize time against profit!

    Be Lucky
