Keep scrapping & Have fun!
A great early morning surprise! Thanks for continuing to upload such intriguing videos.
Great haul, inspired me to get busy today on some of my stuff, thanks
Hi Ben, be careful you don’t turn into a hoarder like the guy who’s house you have just emptied.
i dont think hes got time to! 😂😂😂
@@geoffupton I don't think he has chance not to.
I think he might already be.
He keeps most of it moving. Only a few things in the garage are stagnant.
Great job! Love the long videos, keep them coming. Take care, Poo
Really awesome video I love all your videos keep up the great work. I would love to be able to scrap some of that with you. Love the long videos
Coffee with Ben... Love the vintage eWaste brother! Keep Scrapping and collecting my friend!
Ben that board with the Morgan Magista tubes on @1:03:57 is from a now expensive Morgan amplifier, there will be people screaming for that as the tube are irreplaceable
Ben, YOU are the man! Love these videos!
Thanks for having us along Ben!
Mannnnnn I love watching this channel. I've learned so much from you. I'm wanting to do this and learn to scrap. Still don't understand the differences between low grade and mid grade and such. Can you make a update video on this. Thanks and keep up the great work.
This is going to be an epic series!
Have a Great Day My Friend!!
Don't care how long the videos are. We love em! Hell of a score.
A LOT of work ahead for you Ben!
👍some very nice boards and bits there has to be some that are worth more than scrap value,you have plenty to keep you going during the lockdown 👍
Great video as usual.
Theyre some unusual computers
I really enjoy watching and learning from your videos
I've had to wait all week to be able to give this my full attention!!! Worth the wait. Boy that first switch did it for me, it has a steel rod and a switch, my viewers will understand why I love that 😂 I see I can go straight in to number two, fab!!!
Alrighty then, let me watch old school Scrapping of old school eWaste.
Shame that you can't go out street scrapping this week at least, buy luckily you just picked up that huge load, it should keep you busy for a while!
Great video as usual love the old school /vintage stuff keep them coming can't get enough pity about the street scrapping hopefully soon
Love a marathon, some at breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Yes Ben it's fun to see what people put out on the curb for pickup
Another great video even with the lost footage. Keep up the great work.
That'll keep you busy for awhile... cheers all..
awesome video,you have enough stuff to keep yourself busy for at least a month
I just scrapped my last 10 of 50 of the same IBM. Some of my favorite ones.
Certainly plenty of work then, but suppose that's a nice problem. Looking forward to the next video and the longer the better 😀👍
That chip you keep pointing to in the back of the IBM model 30 motherboard is the Keyboard controller. The CPU is located towards the front of the motherboard right next to the empty socket. it says Intel on it in bright white lettering. It's probably an 80386. The empty socket next to it is for the math co-processor.
To remove the floppy and hard drives, you first have to remove the covers in front of the drives with a small flat blade screwdriver. I think you have to pry them upwards. This reveals the clips under the drives. You just lift up on the clips and the drives slide out through the front.
Wow Ben, super boards
Those gold squid looking guys are called Top hat transistors. Good for gold recovery. The cap is Kovar (steel) so it needs to be dissolved in AP. Slow process but works great.
I have about 8000 of them I’m about to run.
The first is a en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PS/2 and probably has a 80286 CPU.
The empty sockets were for an arithmetic coprocessor like an 80287.
Great ideea to show boards, I love it. Please spend more time showing us the connectors on the stell bracket so we can get an ideea what kind of board it is.
The hard drives are pretty hard to source, since they were generally destroyed for data security purposes. Add-in boards that were not standard, were very expensive and pretty scarce. Power supplies can be trashed, they can be replaced easily. Floppy drives, unless they were stylized, were pretty common, may want to keep the fascia component, that's one part that gives the personality to the face of the computer. The processor, of course, is the heart of the system. The plastic fascia on the case is often in need of replacement, worth selling if it's in good shape. Sound cards are hard to source from the era, as well. So, in order of value, Processor, MB, HDD, add-in boards, fascia. most of the rest can be scrapped. Hope that helps you a bit.
I wouldn't toss too much when if all else find someone who is willing to take some of the junk off your hands given how 80s and 90s hardware is only getting harder thus more expensive to find. Just with the past decade some cards went from selling around $10-20 on eBay to more along the lines of $300-400US.
LOL with that cockroach in the😁 pc you could say the computer had a bug! By the time dvds are collectable, they'll be going through your hoard! LOL. Great video Ben Cheers from North Carolina and one of your "vintage" viewers. lol
Heh, that's funny and your probably right, there's a point of what is worth keeping and what would just become an obscure hoard in years to come.
I'm here for the coppah and the ... yeh. 😊
It's a good thing you can't go street scrapping - you've a lot of work to do 🤣
"Digital servo controller" means that it was controlling a servo motormounted on something lyke an industrial robot, if the robot had 6 joints or motors then it had a rack with 6 boards lyke this, one for each joint / motor(and some other boards for general control and communication), old school stuff 30 years old, now all that rack is replaced by a Pentium 3 motherboard.
An 'eWaste Ben restores' stream or channel would be nice. Must have plenty of projects to restore by now.
The drives from Creative were very popular iin the 80's as well as Sound Blaster Pro.
Lets get the show started cant wait to see all the goodies
That open socket on both IBM boards was probably for the math coprocessor.
Damn Ben...the amount of scrap in your yard looks exhausting! 🧐
Where your thumb is at 16:53 is a maths co-processor socket (basically an expansion socket for a "helper" CPU). As a rule, the CPU will be a similar package size to that and close by, so I'd go with the intel next to it being a soldered on processor. Most likely a 386 SX.
love it
Man you have so much gold there it's unreal
Ben, I hope all you Aussies are Safe down under. Lots of wild weather down there. Thanks for posting.
The Dallas clock chip is a clock and memory with a battery inside, the battery is good for about 15 years, since it dates from the '80's it's long dead.
For the first motherboard the microprocessor is either the intel chip in the corner or an 186 in the slot next to the intel chip(that makes the intel the matematical coprocessor).
Hi Ben , I live in Mulgrave Melbourne and started scrapping 3 months ago. Watching your videos and see just piling your gold recovery items like me. I worked as jeweller for 11 years and process gold old school with hand tolls and small machinery. So , when you ready to recover your gold , I would like to give you some useful pointers.
Sure, Happy to get some tips, I'll be looking to start processing some items in the near future, we'll see how things go.
email anytime weeeben@optusnet.com.au
@@eWasteBen no worries. Keep scrapping till then. See you soon Ben.
You should keep all the scrap vintage board separate and ask your buyer for special pricing. Back then gold was cheaper and used less sparingly.
You are going to have all kinds of gold recovery stuff from that haul to bad about street scrapping I'm convince it's a conspiracy lol two thumbs thank you
Hi I woch your videos everyday tell the team I said hi and I woch thor videos everyday I love you guys I love the video
Hi Ben. Great video. Please stay safe and healthy and take care of yourself and your family members. To all members also. Talk to you later my friend. ☺☺☺😇😇😇❤
Great Video Ben Keep Bringing The Video's Dude 👍👍
the empty square sockets on the ibms are for coprocessors, main processor may be next to em 😊
board at 37:22 is a SCSI card... very expensive at the time!
card at 38:46, the empty sockets were for memory expansion and not always used
card at 39:01, the trident VESA graphics card, chip slots were for ram upgrades mostly empty
board at 40:40 is a ram card
board at 53:48 is an I/O (input/output) card... basically the floppy/hard disk controller
board 1:16:09 adaptec SCSI controller

@@toomaskotkas4467 ahh yes, ta forgot that! cheers fixed 😊
So about those IBM PS/2s...Even though the first one said model 30 on it, it appeared to be a 55sx motherboard like the second one. Those used the MCA bus instead of normal IDE/ISA. Because of that, some of these components can be worth something. I would definitely look up the video cards on eBay if you can test them out. The network cards are almost certainly worthless. If you are restoring some PS/2s, keep that ribbon cable as they can break upon removal. I believe the empty socket on those boards is for a math co-processor and the CPU is that surprisingly small Intel chip next to said socket. They should be 386sx CPUs.
Been waiting in suspense 😬
@eWaste Ben I would be interested in buying some of the PS/2 parts off you, I would like a floppy and HDD assembly or two.
I really like the switch mechanism for turning the PC on and off.
great video ;)
Street scraping soon Ben thanks 😊
SX means no math co processor. That is the slot for the optional math co processor
Dallas clock chips have a battery in them
Hey Ben, if you was going to keep the sound blaster 16 sound card, you need to keep the Creative CD drive as it was sold as a bundle back in the day. :)
Yes that looks like a CR-563-B double speed CD-ROM drive. Known to have disc read errors evently. Very sought after drive as apperantly they are the only drives that work with the creative 3DO blaster cards. If its a working drive it would fetch way more than in scrap value.
Wow I can't find mother board like that in my place.
the sockets on that card was used for printers and other things like that
In order the Microlab pc's boards were drive controll board, peripheral control board, and video controller.
yellow IC's are resistor packs
The hard disks out of the IBM PS/2 were a weird interface (think it was called MFM?), so probably worth a look at values before you bin them.
When and how did you begin your scrapping life?
16:40 The 8146 and a145 probably not part numbers, rather checksum or CRC that a programmer/tester machine can use to determine if the eeprom is 100% correctly programmed. If you plan to keep the ICs, then keep the sticker on them after peeking below.
Use a cardiac to slowly power up the old PC power supplies.
VARIAC that is. Stupid cellphone auto correct...
The empty 40-pin DIP socket on the early PC motherboards was for the Intel 8087 math co-processor. If you find an 8087 absolutely keep it! A most valuable piece in a collection. I've seen thousands of PCs, even worked for an IBM subcontractor building PCs for IBM. Not sure I've ever seen an 8087. Certainly not seen two.
Bok Ben..., first from Croatia
Your tool box looks like mine
Did he end up giving at least some money he got for the CB radios and other stuff back to the dudes he got em from? They for sure could've used it for covering the massive bills for their trash
Those are awsome computers pal the ibms are from the 80s pal
Glass tubes are Rhodium
@UC7qIR2okUBLN9_l7j1Ksb6g just showed using the multi tool (like a grout remover) for taking the card slots off boards in seconds(heaps easier than air chisel)
The Dallas chip on the first board is a battery that you should probably remove.
Dallas and Timekeeper chips have a button cell or lithium battery inside.
@2300 I think that it a parallel printer interface board.
Okay, one more helpful bit of information, I hope. eBay will only give you the last 90 days of comparable sales, really hard to be useful for pricing rarer items. I think it could be worth the free 30 day trial to a service that maintains older eBay sales records to find comparable sales. And nothing here would be hard to sell for much more than scrap value, just link your eBay store below the video and people will scarf them up.
Would love to see some laptop scrapping
How about a scrap session with the Victorian government? Lots of people will enjoy that one. Of course, there will be little valuable material to scrap out.
Adelaides getting decent scrap prices by the way ben.
These are hard videos to watch, it's finding the balance of wanting to keep because it is old stock that could be useful to someone and just learning to let things go so you don't end up hoarding like that house they came out of, on this one, you will not get any heap, grief or you should have kept this from me, I can only imagine the dilemma you must be feeling, but at the end of the day as you say, you can not keep everything lol
Hi Ben, have you ever scrapped an old Star Computer? If so, what is in it that’s good? Thank you for taking my questions
mate. keep all those old cards. you have space to keep them. worth big buck later on.
Those IBM PS/2s were a pain to work on. Almost as bad as Packard Bell!
22:47 is a printer card for an old school dot matrix printer
Suggestion for you Ben
Why don't you get a table to scrap the pcs near the gate so you can place scrap metal straight in to van. Maybe a small table with wheels.
привет Бен хорошие платки их бы мне на афинаж
Hi Ben , is there going to be any street scraping any time soon
maybe next week if not in lockdown
Hay you Gyes , can you ma a living from this sort of scraping ? im in Ireland europe?
Where were the chickens? I missed them!
It is a GO PRO Is It Not??????? sound, video, etc,.
Tried for som time ago, to say this, but no reaction to this, so i have given up.
My Scrap Yard won’t give me anything for these
Join the gold recovery page on facebook, lots of people to sell too
Use your 8
Quiero ver recolección urbana ! ! MY inglish is very dificult. URBAN RECOLECTION'S , YA ! ! Desde ARGENTINA . 🇦🇷✌️🇦🇷✌️🇦🇷
