    No, but I had just taken off my non ferrous so my containers were empty. I could weigh each material and give you the weight for all 3 of them which will give you a better average per unit probably. One of the TV's was very old and it had metal brackets all over, lots of screws and a lot more insulated wiring than the newer TV's. The newer TV's have more integrated mounting for circuit boards and such, plastic slots that the boards slide into instead of metal brackets to mount them, and less wiring between and boards and such. Much more integrated. If you watch in the video he pulls a big copper wire with heavy insulation on it, these are used to secure the picture tube to the housing, the oldest TV didn't have that, instead it had large sheet metal brackets to hold the tube in, which I left intact. The two other TV's had the big copper cable to secure the screen.



    Hmm I don't have a good small scale, only a bathroom scale. I might have a digital fish scale which I could use to weigh my buckets, then dump them to get the Tare to subtract from the full weight... Those would likely be a lot more accurate. I'll look in a bit and get back with ya.
