    I sooo want to visit Scotland. My grandmother said she was 100% Scottish and her cousins would come visit from Scotland and I loved their accents. Funny witty loud women :-)

      @ScrapPalletMan thank you for the comment buddy. You're one guy I've followed for a long time and a big part of what inspired me to do videos. Nice to know you have Scottish blood in you. Yes, the women are formidable for sure. It is such a beautiful place, from the Scottish borders to the Highlands. It's an incredible place.

    • @empirefinds
      @empirefinds 2 дня назад +1

      @ScrappingScotland a by product of e waste processing all the boards contain tin mine gets processed just like the gold and silver. Also old tin has a grey dull look about it. Best way to get a blowtorch if it melts quickly then tin. The garrett apex picks tin out between 54 and 58.

    You can soak the gold bearing circuit boards in hydrochloric acid and over the period of a couple weeks the gold foils will separate from the fiber boards, the foils are usually around 12 carat gold and can easily be melted into a small bar or button.

    Your scrap yard is really mean and making money from your hard work . In Birmingham ,we get a high grade for single cables ,and brass is anything like fuses and not separate. I know they all work different and you still have to shop around as lead batteries for instance is worth more per kilo than another local one

    • @ScrappingScotland
      @ScrappingScotland  3 дня назад +1

      @ScrappingScotland  3 дня назад

      @PremierPlastering they change all the time buddy. I hoard the brass and the copper till the prices go up. As a hobby scrapper I don't have massive quantities of the other metals so it's not a huge hit to take.
