- Scrapping modems & wifi stuff to continue catching up on e-waste smalls in the yard.
With a new 6 week lockdown here, I guess i'll finally have time to clear of everything here and have room to play with stuff I have packed away.
Scrapping tools, safety gear, wire strippers, metal melting furnaces, crucibles and ingot moulds that I use or recommend.. www.amazon.com...

Keep scrapping & Have fun!
I wish your videos didn't end i wish i could just watch this stuff for weeks and weeks on end
Ben is becoming the Eddie Bravo of the scrapper world. I love it.
Only a few will know that reference! I am one of them .
@@scrappersmostrequested6435 😁✌
i love these scrap sessions. not sure why but i do.
When you get your new van, I would not be surprised if you scrap it piece by piece and keep the precious metals.
!!!!!! yep
good to see you again.keep pumping the videos out. thx.
That 6 weeks will give you some time to process all the stuff that's been sitting though!
Ben you of all people have nothing to worry about. You could be locked down for 6 months and still have a backlog of scrap to process.
Love when your videos come out friend. Get that eWaste! Great money as ya know!
Thank You Sir,
Love watching all of your videos.
It does not matter if it is street scrapping or not .
Environmentally conscious people like myself appreciate all you do to keep e-waste out of landfills! Thanks!
I pick up modems too, hope your doing well down there!
I like watching all of your videos!
You should make an "it all adds up" bumper sticker... I'd buy one😁😁😁
Hello Ben, Sweden here again.
I guess you already know but if you are not sure about magnesium or aluminium,, pour some applecider vinegar on it. If it reacts it's magnesium.
Thanks for the update Ben. Look forward to the days forward when you can start melting again too.
If things shut down for too long and you get most of your scrap in order you could think about using the safer vinegar, salt & peroxide to recover some gold fingers. Then just set the recovered gold aside in a jar, or in your case a 5 gallon jug or big barrel, until you get to the refining stage!
Have a GREAT Day My Friend!!!
I'll pick up modems all day, good stuff. As you've seen in my vids, I'm a DeWalt fan.
Another Scrapper im subbed to. Everyone is connected in the scrap world. ha
@@TheMrDmack awesome
when are we gonna see your CPU/PC collection? love to see what you have in your collection!!
Yep show us Ben
ben ive gone from making 40 to 60 a ute load of scrap all types in one now to 8 to 120 thanks to you! AUD btw
I have scrapped a pallet of them and have many memory chips, Socs, heatsinks, regulators, coils, capacitors, plugs, switches, practice boards, ram, wifi modules. I kind of like them and i even pulled the linux and rootfs of a few but i might try to extract some gold and copper and aluminum
We had over 1k new cases of Covid in Mississippi yesterday.
Scrap that drill yeah!!
Hi Ben i love the videos, where I am there isn't a local board buyer so I depopulate all my boards. It's just something I like to do and I am just stock piling everything. I have a heavy commercial 10 inch table saw I am thinking about converting into a plastic chipper. I can stack about 8 carbide blades on it so it should chew through plastic like butter. Build me a feed hopper for it I think it should work nicely. The problem with plastic is it's bulky by chipping I should be able to reduce the mass by 60 or 70% maybe more. Sure make it easier to haul in as well.
Early in the pandemic the testing material and procedures were new and scarce, so they did fewer tests because thats all they could do. Now that they have caught up on producing the materials for the test and have the procedure nailed down, they are doing more tests. Its not that complex.
You should pull the heatsinks of the boards
Much Respect 💪
Hey Ben love your channel. It is really amazing what people throw out on garbage day. I started scrapping in my area a number of years back since I did not like seeing all the reusable materials going int9 the landfills. I also donate my money scrapping to local charities like the food bank. Would love your support with my channel. I am also a teacher and use these types of videos to spread awareness of conservation to my students. Stay well, your friend from Canada.
Hi Ben another great video regard 👍👍👍👍🇸🇬
Like your new scrapper tool. Gday....
scrapping out the ol’ scrapping tool 😆
i like collecting wifi modems. Sometimes it's possible to repair them, and if not, even if the adsl part does'nt work, their still useable as a access point or a hub.
Smoke alarms don't have mercury... newer ones are optical and will just contain a low grade board anyways.
The older ones are problematic, not because of mercure, but because they have a tiny radioactive source of Americum 241.
They remain pretty much harmless if you don't remove the shield over the source. Normally they should not be found in the wild, companies providing them are supposed to take care of used ones...
Here is how it looks like inside one of they BTW: www.electrical-forensics.com/SmokeAlarms/Brand/BRK/9120/BRK-9120.html.
Fun fact: Soviets made somke detectors with... Plutonium !!! highvoltageforum.net/index.php?topic=478.0
Kinda like the igniter in Microwaves i just stay clear of them just to be sure your not dealing with any nastys
I have the Milwaukee system. Love it. I agree with your conspiracy theories Ben, but I’m not sure money is the driving force here. It’s control.
good blog keep them coming gary from crewe England
The 1/4" impact is faster than the 1/2 and 3/8 drill. Here in NY I get more for periffreals than I do for mothers.
Time when you are not so busy means you have time to catch up. Helps you out in the long run!
enjoy your vids ben no matter what you are doing you are never boring so dont worry take care mate
i do like modems easy to scrap and always some goodies inside
wanna make test on that tiny gold plated connectors so will need few of modems to have decent amount lol
anyway good luck with truck and even more on scrap farm 👍😀👍
I keep them all ya never know no point throwing
I do scrap metal and I love e waste.
Stay safe Ben
You should build a Ray gun
They cant find modems cause E Waste Ben finds them all ! 😁
Good job and video
Great Video Ben Them Dump Trailers Are The Same Price Here In America, Keep Bringing The Videos Dude God Bless You And Your Family 👍👍
Hallo ben !! Nice option with the brushles you gonna love it I'm garantin u keep scraping keep stockpile .. Check the prices before sell !!!
I scrapped out al my modems too it took me a day for 3 wheeliebins the plastic was picked up at the street in recycling day saved a lot of time
DRILL BATTERY LIFESPAN --- After a long period say 3-6 months or more you need to charge your batteries before you attempt to use them again. If you do not during that time it has been trickle vampire draining and you can quickly kill/cut the lifespan in third by undervolting it.
love it
UFO antenna 📡 crazy 😜 wave 🌊 catchers
Dude we've been getting 1300 - 2000 "new" cases per day in San Bernardino county southern California. Lol 150 is tiny. Wed be back up and running stronger than ever if we had those kinda numbers. The testing has gone up due to accessibility. In the beginning, since it is/was a newly discovered virus we didnt have existing stockpiles of tests. They had to be designed, tested, and mass produced to even attempt to have the needed supply of tests.
Those network-like small gold connected boards, are wifi devices. The antenna connectors to those are gold plated. Im keeping mine for later gold recovery since they are so easy to take off.
Very interesting great video keep scrapping ben
You are a smart man. If everyone would wake up and refuse to be controlled by they demons all this shit would stop!
We are doing same test here in NSW/Sydney
Va salut sunt un admirator va urmăresc de mult timp apreciez activitatea dumneavoastră notă 10 cu plus
Ben please show how to get copper off roof fan motors i dunno how
He did a video a year ago about it
@@elliotbull7924 cant find her ??
@@James-uc2nd search on youtube ewaste ben copper fan
Her Ben you mentioned rain we in Loa Angeles havent seen rain seance February \March , how's the chickens I don't hear them in the background 😊
quantity over quality when it comes to modems@eWaste Ben,stay safe sir
👍I take modems myself,very little work for a board👍
The impacts dont just turn the screw. They hammer the bit around to undo it. Think of it as you're trying to close a stuck door. If you just push on it (like your old drill just spinning) it wont move, but it you start to whack it multiple times with your fist (like your new impact driver) it will start to move bit by bit, then once its unstuck you can just push it again. Hope that makes a bit of sense. It cracks them loose with a sharp shock to the rotaion, and then spins them out the rest of the way. If you're doing woodwork, use the impact to put screws in. You'll find it gets them tigher and doesn't spin on the head of the screw.
Loved the ryobi scrap!
Why not show taking off the desired parts while opening them up? Id like to see how you take off chips without destroying them. I use a very sharp wood chisel 2 inches wide. It takes board smooth clean without breaking into piles of dust and scrsp
FINNALLY A NEW VIDEO
They are testing 300% more people. Which has cause the numbers of cases to appear larger.
Why not rent a spot for the trailer at a storage type facility? Even if it is $100/month, I'm sure there is one near your home and at $1,200/year in rent, you can rent for about 7-8 years before you hit the cost of re-working your front yard. You may even have moved to the country long before then and thus have ample parking. Just a thought.
I think you have a sound mindset regarding this covid stuff.
Same here Shark Scrapper. But only due to all my stuff is either 18v DeWalt or the new 20v
7:40... we are on the same page
👍do you collect the the plated ends off the wire on the modems?👍
Took off 221 pounds of clean sheet and cast aluminum made 41 dollars aluminum prices where i am in the states arent so good right now really the only prices that are decent at the moment are clean #1 and #2 copper and brass so maybe I'll have to move to Australia haha
Ben mate, here in Perth. We can get tested if you have any symptoms
At least you have street scrapping there, here in the US, it is not so much the same. A few weeks in the spring they have spring clean ups, only problem is there is no e waste allowed, only pure trash/garbage. They can stack as much furniture, garbage, trash as they want on the curbs. They have recycling centers for ewaste, Worst part is they do not get paid anything to drop it off, some of it they have to pay to get rid of. TV's, and cathode ray tubes cost a fortune to get rid of here. 19" or smaller costs $15 dollars to get rid of, 20" or larger is $25 to get rid of. So taking them for the copper here is definitely not worth it unless the party wanting to get rid of them pays a fee up front. Glad your country has such an aggressive recycling program. Cannot get rid of crt's or plastics from electronics at all.
Ben do not throw out the magnetic nickel mlcc they have a 10% recovery rate for silver
Scrappin all the crap
Clap clap
Stai Safe Ben..
You guys in Melbourne got unlucky. We have virtually no cases in Sydney now. All it takes is a couple of mistakes and some bad luck and it will spread. Unfortunately its easy to let one's guard down. We all need to be careful for ages - at least a year, until (if) a vaccine is produced and distributed....
With modems it's not the quality but the quantity that counts
A FANTASTIC STRIPPING SESSION - VERY INFORMATIVE - THANK YOU AND STAY SAVE - CHEERS FROM LOGANHOLME IN QLD. PS - WHEN IS YOUR NEXT E-WASTE STREET SCRAPPING ????
Did your caps lock stick? Lol
@@Thatgaycoincollector nah, this guy always does that.
dude , get a glass still & make your own nitric acid, soak a gallon jar full of ceramics baby ~!
If you need a hand I travel in van been stuck in melb cause vivid crap I could give you free labour could park in driveway cpl days
could hookup that moter to a mains supply and use it on the stripper thats if it still works
Old Chinese curse May you live in interesting times!
he who sees the bird in the tree shite on the rat on the floor who picked up the apple and sent it away who picked 10000 a day i wonder where he is today and them chickens that fly overseas yet as no wings only ones in hot and spicy you know the ones there yummy and so nicey but know could put you on icey or did it come out of a lab carrying it around in a jab a bit on a door knob a squirt on your food all to get the visus to kill as it moves....by paul dyson just now who is down so low tears flood rivers with no wear to flow be safe
Did you’d scrap the drill that went crappy? Lol
Heh, did on cam in the end, I must be a physic
How much do they pay for plastic? If they pay anything?
18:15 You're being summoned for another pickup! Answer your Phone! Or scrap it!
33:45 “one of those things” is a waveguide for the antennae
I do scrap metal and e waste
Have you ever checked out the phone connectors for gold
I bet you do some decking when you get your country place !
hey ewaste ben i hope you not in the full lockdown area
How do you get so much e waste for free. People here in Tasmania want full retail prices for scrap, it's crazy, people advertise srap at full scrap value and expect you to pick it up and take to the scrap yard and give them full scrap price. Also there is nowhere in Tasmania that buys circuit boards as yet. Do all the scrap yards there pay for scrap steel, I am struggling to find any in Tasmania that pay for scrap steel and our non ferrous prices are much lower than there. Might have to move to Melbourne once the old corona b/s is over keep up the great scrapping 🙂👍
I was just wondering, every time I seem to go to that scrap forum a spam message comes up, so I was just wondering, does anyone know where you can sell boards in Sydney please?
First want to say I love watching your channel. 2nd, How long have you been in the ewatse scrapping business? Lastly, how much gold have you recovered either to date or average per year would you say?
Why don't you look at exstenda van that's something that might work for you
Stock shortholders would gain from a collapse. Not that it’s likely.
I've been in lockdown since the end of February and I can't go outside my garden or near or within 6ft of people until August 16th because of health reasons you need to protect yourself and stay safe the same is going to happen in England but the minister of Wales has kept us in lockdown longer so hopefully we are better off than them England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales have decided to do their own thing please take care and stay safe 🇬🇧👏🏻💯💯👏🏻🇬🇧
at least u got the green ryobi's, the blue ones were absolute garbage
still plastic poop tho (:
Hey Ben, why don't you set up a tip jar? Good idea heah,? Easy Scrapping those modems! Really enjoyed and thanks 😊 take care and happy Scrapping!
I agree, Ben should have a Tip Jar available. 🤗
They are doing the same thing here in the US with the test rigging
@20:00 You could have used the Ryobi for building a laser gun with some 10W laser diode instead of scrapping it to nirvana.
Btw, you do not have "Makita" in Australia ?
And thx for the description of scrapping modems. Indeed 2 tays ago I asked myself, what you are going to do with so many modems you pick up on the street scrap sessions.
