    Coolness!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    I have a filter crusher at the Recycling Center I manage. It is amazing how much oil is still left in some of the filters.



    Intersting fact... The Fram Oil Filters always tend to split open on the side. Don't know if they are just a thinner metal or not.

    Cool ... Not many of us around it appears I have the same issue with Motorcraft filters (not the tall ones), Got that right about the amount of oil in them, I put mine is the sun for hours to make even more come out .
