    oops found a white guy in the wood pile

    there is a very good reasion carpenters and Santa Claus check every thing twice.



    I compact my cop wire in to 5 gal buckets till I get close to 50 lbs per bucket. yes I know that is maybe a little on the eccentric side but hey thats just me. Any way today I was just getting ready to cap a bucket when a cloud moved and deep within the compacted strands, what catches my eye but a single glint of silvery white. yup you guessed it there was alum wire mixed in with my compacted copper. guess what I did all day ?

    just a reminder , dont get in too big of a hurry, some yards are really pickey and looking for a reasion to turn that $150 bucket into a $50 bucket of Alu/copper.
