    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    I hope you tied them things down good, you'd have scrappers following you everywhere
    That reminds me of a Jay Leno monologue, two guys robbed a Krispy Creme Donuts, then stole a truck for their get-away, but the doors were still open, donuts falling out. By the time Leno gets through with the story, there's like 500 cops chasing that truck!

    Tim Horton's >>> either of those.

    Nice load of rads there Cory. You saw the tanks off? Just curious what you're getting per lb. there.

    zito, i cut the tanks off with a table saw, its very fast, i stand off to the side and run them thru using a regular wood cutting blade, id have to look at the sheet but i think the aluminum ones were .65 and the brass has fell since last time i sold any it was 1.75. later ill go back and get the brass tube outa the tanks and sell the tanks for breakage

    tater, only 7 of them were brass and one of those was the thin one off of those 90's olds they only weigh about 5lbs, the rest were good size.

    Nice, I like that table saw idea, will have to keep my eyes open for a cheap saw for that. I've just been shipping my rads dirty because cleaning them was just too much hassle.
