    Semi newwbie Florida

    I've worked in and ran shops for years so I have scraped, But never really got into it.
    My health is getting alot worse so im thinking of doing more while clearing out the storage buildings of old parts computers etc etc etc. This is a big part of what lead me here not only to maximize the regular stuff, but to figure out all this older computer stuff Ive had for way way to long

    you might find old parts to be worth more than scrap, if you do some searches and check them out on ebay
