Bought 20 electrical hookups out of an old trailer court. Shouldn't have paid for them but the old guy looked like he could use the $20. So $1/ea. plus some other riff raff. Old mailboxes, fence posts etc.
10 1/2 inch nuts down the side of the base are brass.
Once you get the base and all the covers off, the box looks something like this:
Front:
Back:
All disassembled, ended up with 46lbs lite iron/sheet metal, about 2lbs of aluminum + a pound or so of aluminum wire, pound of brass, a 110 outlet, 2 220 outlets, 3 breakers, and a SS ring that holds the glas window on. Maybe 1/2 lb. of insulated and #2 tinned copper. A little disappointed in the copper content. Oh well, can't win 'em all.
