      I know we're coming up to the time of year where he has been known to get 1,000 subs every 4 or 5 days!! I'm hoping that's what happens. As we talked about last September I was thinking he'd hit 100,000 subs in the 1st part of 2020 and you said in 2019, I'M REALLY WANTING YOU TO BE RIGHT!!!! That would be very cool!!

    I'm not sure what country you're in but in the US the steel shred price is very similar.but I did notice something you're very lucky to be able to take rims that have rubber tires on them in the u.s. you're not allowed to do that they don't allow it. You have to separate the tire from the rim the tires got to go to the landfill. Another thing that I noticed is that you had computer chips or also known as green board or also known as breadboardsleft in some of those things that you were throwing out for steel why didn't you separate that and turn in your computer chip separately here in the US it's paying about $0.10 a pound my shred steel is paying about 3.5 cents a pound.

    I wanted to add, about the electric motors of fans and vacuum cleaners, in the old models copper was used in the winding, and now the Chinese are wound with aluminum, as in vacuum cleaners and fans, even in the power cords of copper, there was copper-plated steel. I even met aluminum wires with copper-plated copper.

    @eatiegourmet1015 5 лет назад

    My local yard here (in USA) wouldn't take that much plastic (ABS), as in printers, etc. and consider it steel. And tires are a definite no-no, (rims are ok) -- in fact we have to Pay to get rid of tires! Our electronic waste doesn't get bought here at my yard, but we can take it to the state recycle facility all-of-a-piece (aka printers, keyboards, etc, even after they've been scrapped), plus boards. ABS plastic just goes into regular trash and ends up in a landfill. Good on ya, though, for moving almost a ton of stuff!

    Of all that stuff into the scrap yard[s] in this upload it is all drawn from different pick ups and hard rubbish runs which might have been from 2 years or 8 months ago or from just week or whenever. No single pick up or hard rubbish run is in that lot in its entirety but the entirety of that lot would almost certainly be more than the equivalent of any singe pick up or hard rubbish run. It is all a matter of sifting to get the correct product in the right volumes.

  • @firesurfer
    @firesurfer 5 лет назад

    I'm guessing they make the copper heatsink fins with a different alloy in order to make it easier to manufacture. The stiffer fins also hold up better rather than being bent/crushed. They should sell on eBay at a decent price. You mentioned the postal prices for shipping are bad. Perhaps you can do a pickup only listing. It kills me to see that bike all the time. Sell it! $100 minimum.

    I watched your video when you arrived at a landfill and unloaded computers, laser printers, LCD monitors from the trunk of the monitor. The monitors are whole, the matrices are not broken, and probably they are working, and you are in metal, this is not a reasonable solution. We if such monitors are thrown away, as a rule, with broken matrices or broken electronics, for me it was a shock, they just threw it into the scrap, and laser printers do the same.
