At the bottom of the bucket, you'll be left with about 10 percent copper, brass, aluminum, and stainless screws. And you know what to do with those!

    Exactly. Also, when going over these screws with a magnet, use the neodymium ones that you pull from the HD. If the screws are ferrous, a regular ferrite magnet won't necessarily pick them up....when a neodymium will.
