      Tell me about it bro! Next time, I do my homework first! I gotta get going on those AC’s so I can finish up the series! Looks like I know what I’m doing every night this week. Thanks for the kind words man! 😁

      Yup!!! A 6000 BTU that the girlfriend will most likely inherit. She already has a 5000, but hers is the old dial knobs with no energy saver or timer. A perfect upgrade. No damage whatsoever to the fins either. Thanks a bunch bro! My friend did a good job with the animation! Now I look kinda professional! 😁🔥🔥🔥

    To bad the AC worked (not bad for you of course 😉) but the refrigerator was a decent replacement! Except for the lack of copper😔. You still got a nice aluminum ingot!😉.

      Yeah, I kinda regret not scrapping it, but I dont like scrapping working AC's when I know I can probably get more $$$ out of it by selling it versus scrap value. Not to worry though, I got a bunch more that I've picked up since then 😁

    Spicy new intro! Shame that fridge was a bust, though. Live and learn, I guess.

    • @Scrap2Cast
      @Scrap2Cast  2 года назад +1

      Thank you kind sir! I was definitely disappointed in the wine fridge. Being a Haier fridge, I thought the copper content would’ve been higher! I’ll still pick them up if I see them and just pull off the aluminum heatsinks. 😁

    Was there any copper in the fan motors?

    • @Scrap2Cast
      @Scrap2Cast  2 года назад +2

      Very, very minimal and for the time it took me to get it out, wasn't worth showing those efforts. Same goes for those micro transformers on the boards. I think there was less than 20 grams recovered from all of the stuff done off-camera. The wire was about 80% of the total weight if memory serves me correctly. Thanks for watching!

    too bad .. those ac units have alot of copper ... good to know though .. i have an old wine fridge here that was on the scrap list ... might just pass on it now .. its even a bit smaller than the one in the vid so prob not worth it ... thanks again !!

    • @Scrap2Cast
      @Scrap2Cast  2 года назад +2

      Hey man talk about a let down huh? I figured I could probably sell that air conditioner for $30-$40. Even if there was 5 lbs of copper in it, I could make more trying to sell it as a working unit. The other two don’t work so those are next in line to be scrapped out 😁 Thanks for commenting and watching man!

    Where did ya get that 2 lb aluminum mold from? I want 2! Lol

    • @Scrap2Cast
      @Scrap2Cast  2 года назад +1

      I bought it from PMCSupplies, it wasn’t cheap... I just checked their website and they are now selling it for $106.68. I believe they have a coupon code of PMC5 for 5% off. If you’re just going to use it for aluminum, might I recommend welding up some U-channel steel and make a gigantic one! In the vid I posted today, I made two aluminum ingots a little over 3.5 pounds each in my biggest steel mold. I wont use it for copper / brass. 😁
