Anybody know anything about old fax machines? Any gold or silver? Or just copper & steel?
Thats a real general question. Open one up and take a look. Thats the best way to learn. I am sure there are boards and other goodies inside. If you want to know if you should buy them them I recommend paying no more than shred price if you had to buy it. Lots of plastic to deal with.
Thank you very much! What exactly is shred?

It's just better to consider this option before the fact ; ) happy scrappin man
I just didn't know of there would be any gold or silver in it
Any gold or silver would be in the boards. Low grade, mid grade and power boards are what you'll find in them. Also you will find electric motors and some wire that will go as #2 insulated copper. If your real lucky you might get one that somebody dropped a gold ring in to and couldn't get it out but good luck with that.
Does anybody know how to get pictures up on here. It says I'm not allowed?
The FAQ up in the left section will tell you how to. Or you can use a hosting site like most of us do. Imageshack, Photobucket, Imgur, etc. Most are free, and rather easy to use.
