    SW Michigan new scraper.

    Howdy folks,



    This summer I cleaned up my small barn and property. At my wife's suggestion I took
    the stuff to the local scrap yard. Came back with $200. Cool. Then I helped a friend
    clean up a piece of property. His buddy was an old scrapper and started telling me
    the price per pound of all the stuff laying around. I started seeing the value in scrapping.Thought some part time scrapping would be fun and a good way to supplement my retirement. Besides, I've always liked tearing things apart.

    Now that's it's cold and snowy out I've been going through some old computers.
    Also picked up some stuff at auction to tear apart.

    I like this site's information on e-scrap and the info from the buyers and what they are
    looking for.
    Have a good day,

    Luner5

    Howdy, I'm in Michigan as well. This was a pretty mild winter until last week. Now, I'm working indoors on computers as well.

    Yes it has been awesome, I wish it would have stayed. We had thunderstorms here last night. Michigan weather is crazy. Where else can it snow and be sunny at the same time!

    Your buddy is close to me. I'm in Mecosta County.
