    Hiya from Round Rock Texas

    I'm Raccooner, I hale from Round Rock Texas and have been collecting scrap for a few months, but since I haven't hauled it into the yard yet, I don't know if I can call myself an 'official scrapper'.



    I found this forum early on and bookmarked it right away. I visit almost daily and finally decided to create a profile.

    Most of my finds are in the wee hours of the morning before garbage pickup and I spend my idle time breaking things down and sorting. My wife says she is eagerly awaiting the day I haul my collection into the scrap yard, if for no other reason than it will clean up the area behind my shed.

    Hello

    If your like the rest of us that cash in your hand seems to be a kind of an addiction. And then the wheels begin to turn in your head. Welcome to the forum and the world of scrapping.
