  I take anything metal. I&apos;ll take the handle off a mop, lol. <br>I&apos;m doing $300-400/month just on steel. Got a pile of wires and brass building up. It&apos;s a fun little hobby

  I was born in Holmewood, Bradford, England. It has a reputation for scrapping. They is even a film about teenage scrappers one of the actors is from Holmewood. I have always gone around everywhere with my snippers. I do work another day job. I used to live in a block of flats and &nbsp;I would go around the flats in the morning and after work and also in the evening. It paid for our family holiday.

  The most overlooked thing scrapping is dryers. I take them completely apart and get over a hundred dollars a year in change, sometimes paper money, and lots of gold and silver jewlery.

  Your &quot;leave it better then you found it!&quot; &nbsp;message is awesome, your entire ethos is encouraging, im not much of a &quot;scrap pander&quot; but i recon you can apply your rules to almost everyday thinking. Fair play to ya.

  Bedframes can be great for fabbing, &nbsp;angle is stout. When TSHTF happens all the scrap will be a lot more important and valuable. &nbsp;Notice I said &quot;when&quot;, not If. &nbsp; I love the phrase &quot;Leave it better than you found it&quot; .
