    In Southern Oregon, shred @ $140 a ton at the yard I go to. $80/ton at the one I don't go to. Best price on Short Heavy steel I can find is & $160 per ton. It has been like this for a while.

    As soon as I knew I was heading to Cincy.. I thought of you my brotha! We were on a 1 day hit it and get it family fun day. Got down to the water park about 12:00 and slid until they kicked us out at 8.. grabbed some McD's down the street and headed home.. At some point you and I will meet up! Just too darn close not to get together!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!
