    Not always worth stripping

    I picked up some large fridge motors today and decided to strip one to see how much was inside. If sold as a fridge motor $32 (71 kg) if sold as electric motor (49 kg) and heavy steel (27 kg) $34.85 and completely stripped (3 kg) copper and (68 kg) steel $39.20. If you take into account the 6 cutting discs I used I am worse off. I will sell the rest as fridge motors.
