    Small things I recycle: anything metal. Bottle caps, nails, paper clips. Aluminum food wrappers. I can get obsessive about recycling.

    I have a little container started of just computer screws. They are so clean, cute, and seem possibly useful. Are they worth saving up and selling as batches of electronic screws, or should I just toss them in with the steel?

    I was curious about this myself. They add up very quickly when I'm pulling apart whole computers. What are most of them made of?
